KA Connect 2026 will take place at the Sundance Mountain Resort in Sundance, Utah from August 11th to August 14th, 2026.
Join us for a webinar on the real-world benefits of AI-powered knowledge management, hosted by PSMJ and featuring Christopher Parsons, Founder and CEO of Knowledge Architecture.
In this session, Christopher will share five real-world case studies showing how AEC firms are using the intranet and AI search capabilities of Synthesis—Knowledge Architecture’s integrated knowledge and learning management platform—to connect the right person to the right knowledge or expert in the flow of work.
Rather than talking about AI as a distant future concept, this webinar looks at what it actually looks like inside firms today — how knowledge is being captured, made searchable, and reused long after someone attends a training or asks a question for the first time.
The five case studies include:
BWBR created a healthcare upskilling series with 18 learning modules, best practice guides, and expert-curated content. AI search makes it all accessible to new hires so they can quickly get answers to their questions.
Turner Fleischer combined structured standards, #TechTalk videos, a searchable eTutor library, and an internal learning academy to build a robust KM foundation. AI search delivers just-in-time answers that support technology adoption at scale.
Boulder Associates uses expert interviews to capture knowledge, such as seismic compliance strategies and Bluebeam project workflows. AI search then surfaces this expertise so project teams can get answers and connect directly with in-house experts.
Bora Architecture & Interiors built a digital twin of their sustainability lead, Corey Squire, by integrating his best practices, project reflections, and even his book into their intranet. AI search (aka “Robo Corey”) now helps employees find standards, strategies, and subject matter experts for sustainable design decisions.
Shepley Bulfinch created a comprehensive onboarding knowledge ecosystem, answering questions such as “How do I get staffed on projects?” or “Who knows Affinity Photo in Houston?” in the flow of work. AI search allows access to these answers long after orientation.
We’ll close with a brief preview of what’s next for AI-powered knowledge management in AEC, including a look at emerging capabilities such as advanced project search and AI-powered knowledge agents.
The webinar takes place Thursday, November 6th at 1 PM EST.
We hope you’ll join us for this conversation.
We’ll be running four 90-minute roundtables from November 4th through November 5th.
In this behind-the-scenes session, Christopher Parsons (Founder and CEO) and Sean Mahan (Director of Software Engineering) will share how Knowledge Architecture designed and built Synthesis AI Search, tracing its evolution through multiple generations of design and engineering.

Knowledge Management has always evolved alongside technology and today, powered by AI, a new golden era of KM is emerging — KM 3.0. In this webinar, Christopher Parsons, Founder and CEO of Knowledge Architecture, will explore how technology has transformed Knowledge Management across three major phases.
Ever feel like managing scattered project data is holding back your project storytelling?
You're not alone.
Many AEC firms face challenges with siloed teams, endless back-and-forths, and manual processes that make strategic knowledge sharing and crafting compelling proposals harder than they should be. But Schmidt Associates found a solution. By integrating OpenAsset and Synthesis, Knowledge Architecture’s intranet and AI search solution, they created a trusted foundation for project information, revolutionizing their ability to tell powerful project stories.
Join us on April 16th to learn how Schmidt Associates streamlined their proposal process and connected project imagery, technical insights, and institutional knowledge across teams. Here’s what you’ll learn:
Breaking down silos: How Schmidt Associates united marketing, operations, and business development around a shared project knowledge hub
