If you have the plan of developing BIM as
an asset, you may have gone through different pieces of advice from the contractors to make the ultimate move.It’s
important to consult with the architects
and the firms you will be collaborating to opt for a compatible solution
from your perspective.
Tips for Transitioning to BIM:
·
Many contractors prefer using CAD (Computer Aided Designing), but BIM (Building Information Modeling)brings
before you the virtual 3D world of construction as in reality.
·
You need to provide 3-6 months
for making the transition to BIM from 2D, through setting up BIM office
standards, expectations from the team members, and standardizing the
workflows.
·
Some may face a serious obstacle
to efficient BIM implementation. In such a case, it would be wise to consult a
competent BIM Modeling Company that provides BIM Consulting Services like BIM
Strategy Preparation, BIM Execution Planning, BIM Deployment Resource Sharing,
BIM Infrastructure Planning, and BIM Logistics Planning.
·
Always keep your firm grip on what’s being modeled and delineate the boundaries clear from the very
beginning.
·
Be prepared for the financial
upkeep involved with BIM about maintaining the software licenses. Using BIM may
not provide you 100% change order avoidance as the change may arrive for
various reasons necessitating redrawing at the expense of the owner.
Owner’s Choice with BIM
Now, the owner should follow a few
considerations, while weighing up the project investment. He should be
confident with the answers to the questions like:
ü Will there be any circumstances where a rigid schedule will make
delays painful?
ü Whether time-saving prefabrication will be a necessity or not?
ü Does the space encompass classic congested zones for paying
dividends to sort out issues on a screen as opposed to the field?
Earlier
& the Current Scenario with BIM
Way back in 2010, BIM was a new-fangled toy
that needs to be sold. However, today, not having BIM competence may lead to the
elimination of the contractor from the project.A completely modeled BIM system
will let the software yield a bill of lading. Hence, accurate material quantities
can be identified.
Ripple
Effect BIM Benefits
ü That BIM benefit has a ripple effect, translating to improved labor
and materials estimates, resulting in an accurate budget, which is preferred by
all AEC stakeholders. The technology helps to streamline the coordination of
things, saving substantial time on project execution. The reduced time on-site
leads to a logical consequence.
ü According tothe statistics of Dodge Data & Analytics in 2016,
over 40% of a group of architects, contractors & engineers stated at least a
5% decrease in reportable safety incidents due to BIM usage.The same Dodge
study established that 70% reported a decrease in RFIs, saving additional
organizational labor.
ü Certainly, the contractors emphasized the commercial side that the project
problems can be avoided or money can be saved if BIM is implemented in the first
place.
