Virtual Roundtable: How "Stay Home, Stay Safe" Affects the Industry

I recently had the pleasure of participating in a virtual roundtable co-hosted by AIA Michigan, AIA Detroit and the AIA Michigan Government Affairs Committee. The webinar, “How "Stay Home, Stay Safe" Affects the Industry,” shed some light on how architects and various AEC firms, even outside of Michigan, are currently being impacted by COVID-19.

Andy Wasiniak, FAIC, CPC, LEED AP+C, the AGC of Michigan Vice Chair and VP & General Manager, Commercial Group for Walbridge spoke on how projects over the next two months are either stalled, stopped or pushed out—several of which were in the mid-design phase. That alone is almost $500 million worth of work.
