Objectives
Ø Defining BIM
Ø Identifying the Uses of BIM during the Lifecycle of
the Project
Ø Understanding the Role of the CM in the BIM
process
Ø Overview of Best Practices for a Successful BIM
Implementation

PROJECT CONTROLS
Construction Industry
Ø Expected US $1 Trillion Market in 2016
Ø Coordinating labor, and managing, moving and
installing materials, and equipment contributes to
20-50% of construction efficiency loss
Ø Lack of interoperability contributes to a waste of
time and resources

BIM Principles
Building Information Management
• A collaborative process that allows
the beneficial re-use of data across
the entire team throughout the life-
cycle of the project.
Benefits:
§ Reduces Errors in Construction Documents
§ Provides New Management Processes
§ Reduces Rework and Field Changes
§ Reduces Workflow Cycle Time
§ Fewer Claims and Litigation
§ Reduces Project Duration and Construction Cost
§ Real Time Reporting

Model Quality Management
Model Checking Lessons Learned
Ø Checking can be take 50% less time if standards,
specifications and workflow are clear
Ø Code checking is impossible if model quality is not
accurate (e.g. if number and location of sprinkler heads
or door fire rating is inaccurate)
Ø 2D drawings must be produced from the model to avoid
2D vs 3D discrepancies
Ø Model checking is essential to performing any type of
analysis
Quantity Take-Off
Ø Increases quantity take-off efficiency
Cost Estimating Support
Ø Model quality is vital
Ø Unit cost estimating

Lesson Learned
Ø BIM Kick-off Meeting is essential – early in the project
Ø Requires involvement from the majority of trades
Ø Must be clearly outlined in the specifications
Ø GC must be involved and lead the effort
Ø All project participants must have access to the model
(trailer/iPads/mobile workstation)
Ø Coordination sign-off is required
Ø Must start early
