As part of Fulton County Schools’ goal to introduce new learning environments into their existing school facilities, SSOE worked with school administrators and staff to design a new two-story addition at Autrey Mill Middle School. The addition, which now connects to the building’s pre-existing two-level classroom, also included the addition of lab and teaching space totaling more than 25,000 SF.
The resulting addition incorporates the district’s new “Immersive Learning” neighborhood concept incorporated at the recently completed Ronald E. McNair Middle School and re-formulated it to integrate with the existing school.
The addition includes 11 classrooms, two science laboratories, and one new art lab, designed to replace an existing undersized art suite. The decision was made to relocate the new art lab, making it a vital part of the new addition as a way to better introduce art into the school’s core classroom planning scheme.
SSOE designed the original 185,000 SF facility back in 2001. The Autrey Mill Middle School Addition incorporates the district’s new “Immersive Learning Neighborhood Concept,” which is based on the recently completed Ronald E. McNair Middle School.

SSOE is currently piloting software that puts a copilot engine in Revit. Using Natural Language Processing (NLP) we can prompt Revit activities such as cleaning up parameter data, annotation, dimensions, sheets and then can share and deploy automations to co-workers in different workspaces within a project. Transforms traditional process of scripts >> write the code, execute command upon an SME directing. (see transcript)
Github Copilot we’re deploying with our Software Development Community so they can utilize a NLP interface and access Github enterprise knowledge to expedite advance coding. https://github.com/features/copilot – gives them the ability to utilize an agent to help with “manual” process of writing code that then they can polish, make happen.
We helped our client visualize and optimize façade design for occupant comfort—long before breaking ground through the use of the Autodesk Forma tool. It allows the designer to rapidly experiment with the building’s geometry and façade design to discover the most suitable form, prioritizing quality of spaces and comfort for end uses, especially in extreme climates (daylighting and microclimate analysis tools) at the project’s exact geographic location, using location-specific environmental data.
SSOE is utilizing Microsoft Copilot to significantly enhance work efficiency and accuracy across various departments. Copilot is accessible to all staff after training. Key areas of application include using it as a writing assistant, for idea generation, document summarization and generation, research assistant, excel assistant, programming code assistant, language translations, product comparison and data analysis. Use of Copilot has become part of the everyday life of SSOE employees who have identified key ways it can help them become more efficient with their daily tasks as well as more accurate in their deliverables.
75% of SSOE employees have taken the training / have access to Copilot with a goal of 100% by the end of PY25.
We found ourselves in need of a more robust tool to enhance resource forecasting and staff assignment capabilities. Instead of waiting for the perfect tool, we’re building it. SSOE’s in-house technology team has developed and piloted a tool that aims to forecast optimal staff mix and duration for new projects against existing workload to better understand capacity and manage resources efficiently. Additionally, the tool will allow teams to estimate staff requirements and identify gaps.
