Key Objectives

• Standardize the production process and maintain uniformity across projects and regions.
• Create a standardized data structure that allows data to be reused, and eliminates redundant and conflicting information.
• Decrease waste by utilizing a virtual building process to simulate design & construction activities.
• Reduce CAPEX (capital expenditure) costs with better informed decision making and greater coordination & collaboration amongst project teams.
• Allow the Design and Construction models to be used for building operations without adding significant costs or time to the Design & Construction process.
• Visual communication of site conditions for planning and health/safety/risk assessment.
• More accurate project phasing and timelines.
• More accurate budgeting and cost estimating, ensuring the project is constructed with the least variations/clashes as possible.
• Fully clash detected models that reduce RFIs requesting data on object location, with an emphasis on clash avoidance.
• Utilize 3D models for reporting, review, and decision making.
• Ensure that there is coordinated, quality design documentation to estimate the build cost.
• Ensure that the constructibility and methodology of the design have been assessed before documents are issued for construction.
