“I can honestly say that it as been my distinct pleasure and delight, to have worked with Cliff for the last five years. Cliff was the senior project manager on a project for USC that included six buildings totaling over 150 million dollars in project costs. During the project, Cliff marshaled UDG into a new era of using virtual design and construction tools and techniques to program, design and construct these structures. The work Cliff performed took the firm in a new direction and expanded the industry’s interpretation of BIM (building information modeling) to include not only the initial design and visualization but also implementation, and finally into an integrated approach to facilities management.” 

“Cliff is innovative, a consensus builder, and a leader.  Any team he participates in will evolve into a high performance team through his guidance.”

“We have been working with Cliff over the last year on our first HD BIM process for a new build apartment complex in Bremerton, Washington. Each design group came in with different degrees of expertise, Cliff encouraged us to share information to benefit us all.”

“Having a current model, showing all internal and external design, for our reference has allowed us to create a design that not only works aesthetically but functionally as well. Resolving issues prior to the complete building process. We have worked from plan views on all of our previous projects, this has been a real eyeopener to the value this process adds. I see this as a definite benefit to all trades and ownership as well with the end results saving time and money.”

“I met Cliff 15 years ago when he was the project manager for a 30 year architectural client and I was the structural engineer on the Lucas School of Cinematic Arts at USC. On the School of Cinema the owner requested we do a 3D model that was accurate enough to produce shop drawings and build from. It would be an LOD 400 model at a time when no one knew what an LOD was. Cliff is a renaissance man educated as an architect, a scientific problem solver with vast knowledge in an artistic profession. Together we set out on a journey to master this new medium. we met that challenge and more.”

“Having provided an accurate detailed BIM model from which shop drawings were produced, Cliff took on the task of interfacing the model with the facility management software in a way that would significantly reduce maintenance costs. Since then we have teamed with Cliff to provide that level of service on projects as diverse as the Daytona Rising project in Florida to multi-family residential projects in Seattle. Cliff continues to lead the industry in developing the processes that will take us into the 22nd century.”

“I will be venturing off on my own in the spirit of the Cliff entrepreneurship! Thank you for making the Eagle Pointe such a fun project. You took collaboration to a new level and I really enjoyed it. I really like the direction you are pushing your design efforts to.”
