Integrated digital practice?

gregco
I am trying to get a handle on who's leading the industry with the most integrated digital practice. I am talking about firms that recognize the potential for technology to reshape and reinform what architecture is and how it can benefit the practice of architecture. Thoughts? Perspectives? Who has designated in house computational design teams? Who has back end teams writing custom apps for quantifying post occupancy evaluations? Who is using Revit and applying thoughtful workflows to the design, modeling, rendering process so there is little to no duplication in the work? There has to be a handful of firms who see the future of cloud computing and understand how it will flatten the design process...right? NBBJ? HOK? HKS? SOM? I know you are out there. Give me the inside scoop.

There are few companies that have pods that specialize in developing digital tools. Woods Bagot, NBBJ, and KPF come to mind. I'd classically include shop, but I don't know if that's true or not, anymore.

Revit isn't the only software that is capable of whatever is deemed as an "integrated digital practice."
