BIM Companies Specialising in 3D Design

This article discusses the benefits of using BIM Companies when planning and designing a 3D construction project.

Building Information Modelling (BIM) is an integrated process built not on a brand new technology or piece of software, but on coordinated, consistent information about a project from design, through construction and into operations and facilities management. It will help improve the planning and co-ordination; it will improve on accuracy, reduce wastage and facilitate better decisions earlier in the process. A BIM project would characteristically model all data relating to design, costings and clash detection, scheduling and procurement, environmental impact, life cycle and facilities management factors.

Making the Change – BIM Compliance:

With BIM compliance, information can be shared across different companies and software packages. There has in recent years been a considerable shift within the construction industry, working together to ensure projects are BIM compliant. In light of this, companies across the board are finding it beneficial to work with BIM compliant designers and architects, ensuring that going forward their plans are of the required standard. In the UK, the government is pushing for all building and construction projects to be BIM compliant by 2016. For the most part, this has been embraced by the industry who recognise the many benefits of BIM going forward.

Collaborative Working:

BIM is, in essence, the exchange of information between all parties involved in a construction project. BIM will undoubtedly have a considerable impact on business management and operations management, allowing cost savings to be made from the very start of the project and throughout the life cycle of the building. Working with BIM Companies will change the way the industry works together and create closer working relationships between all construction and design professionals. Collaborative working across the board can help to ensure the success of any given project.

Enabling Industry Growth:

Working towards the same standard can play a vital role in ensuring the adoption of BIM compliant technologies and processes. BIM Companies work hard to ensure that they have access to same correct data that can be accessed equally throughout the supply chain, This level of accurate data can assist in making considerable cost savings in terms of materials, labour and the early detection and remedy of costly mistakes a given. By working together, stakeholders can save significant sums and facilitate future industry growth.
