Management Practices and Digital Designs

Convener: Jennifer Whyte, University of Reading, Co-convener: Chris Harty, University of Reading

We invite empirical papers that explore how organizational practices are changing around the use of digital models on projects. These papers could draw on a range of theoretical approaches and commitments, such as institutional theory, practice-based studies and actor-network theory, but would focus on the shaping of organizational practices around a digital model of building and/or infrastructure at any stage in the project life-cycle (briefing, through to facilities management and use). They may address aspects such as visual practices; sense-making and decision-making; and the differentiation and integration of work across firm boundaries.
