NEW FUTURE
CHALLENGES
point as the way business is conducted continuously evolves
through the use of big data, analytics and
artificial intelligence along with traffic
forecasting equipment, crowdsourcing
apps, such as Waze, and other city management technologies.
"We can use big data not just for
planning purposes, but for spur-of-themoment and operational changes to our
public transit services," says Barrett, senior
vice president of Gannett Fleming.
Barrett believes the industry will also
rely on these technologies to monitor
road conditions as autonomous vehicles
merge onto highway systems and repairs

to signals and systems have to be made
quickly to avoid accidents.
On the analytics side, Barrett's firm is
preparing for its future with a new "Geo
Decisions" group, which expands its geospatial mapping practice to examine trends
for sustainability and for moving people.
The group studies where clients put new
facilities, how facilities are maintained,
their life expectancy and how the environment will change as a result of the facility.
AUTOMATION IN DESIGN
AND CONSTRUCTION
Positioning firms for the future also
includes automation-and how it can
serve both firms and their clients.
"Automation has already taken over
many repetitive jobs that are based on
mass performance, and lot of people
are scared about that," says Vice Chair
Kenneth Smith, president and CEO of
T. Baker Smith. "From an engineering
profession standpoint, it is a great opportunity for engineers to provide those
automated solutions to clients. As engineers, we are supposed to be the trusted

adviser bringing innovative solutions to
the table, not just designs. I see for the
profession that it is raising the bar for us."
To prepare for the future, T. Baker Smith
has established a 10-person innovative
solutions group made up of programmers,
electricians and GIS specialists who focus
exclusively on bringing innovative solutions
to their clients.
In the design and construction fields, Vice
Chair Keith London is excited about trends
in 3D, 4D, 5D and even 7D design, which
have the potential to add long-term asset
management planning into building design.
