Post-Occupancy
In the AEC, the project builds a box and everything has to fit inside. But what is needed is often outside the box.
Founded by Alex Wickes, RA LEED AP BD+C, who built AI and technology tools and systems across multifamily, retail, commercial, education, and industrial at GFF, Corgan, Pfluger.
Just Additive LLC exists to bring what is outside the box back in with AI and technology consulting and software development, tailored for the AEC.
