They're like, "Okay, we need some more help here.
25:33
Need to figure out how we're gonna achieve this element that we want on the building." But I would love if they got in as early as possible.

I love when it's schematic design phase, where we can help drive what they need, because we're able to utilize our engineering team here and put together details for them that they can just drop in their drawings.
25:51
Instead of them trying to muddle through it, throw some rectangles on the building, call it a day for the first round of CDs or DD set of drawings, we can give them actual concept designs to put in their drawings.

So if someone really wants to tap into getting design assistance, what's the best way to engage? And if I'm coming, is there something I need to bring with me, or can I just come straight with a blank slate?
