Some of the common benefits of BIM which encourages productivity

Before I go ahead with counting the benefits of Building Information Modeling, let me make it clear that BIM is all about enhancing productivity and nothing else. Be it AEC professionals or clients they are all benefited with the implementation of MEP BIM Services that helps in developing digital models for architecture, structure and MEP. BIM models delivered to clients during early design phase help in providing detailed information about design, construction, sustainability, operations and maintenance etc. Information concerning different phases of construction can be optimized by design and construction professionals for obtaining effective solutions during final construction.




During the design phase BIM Modeling services can help in developing effective design as it facilitates coordination and collaboration. All design members can share a same model and can improve its quality by working collaboratively towards its development. Collaborative work culture ensures that all the building stakeholders work effectively towards achieving greater productivity.

As Revit users can make use of different design alternatives it helps them in developing high performing, cost effective and sustainable building design. By using cutting edge technology, BIM users can even reduce the expected project cost as modeling tools optimized during preconstruction can provide cost effective solutions. Building stakeholders (architects, engineers, owners and contractors) can definitely obtain the outcome according to their choice as they can make a thorough analysis of the design for speculating outcomes. If in case by making modifications in the design project outcomes can be controlled, then AEC professionals go ahead with that. In other words by making modifications in the design AEC professionals try to improve project productivity. By developing 3D models in virtual environment, they can successfully analyze the results of utilizing complex tools, techniques and procedures during actual construction. That means all kinds of project complications that can be faced during actual construction are identified by utilizing Virtual Design and Construction. 


A significant amount of reduction can be done in the wastage of materials, resources and money by visualizing project outcomes much ahead.  By making best use of quantity takeoffs, material wastage can be controlled by AEC professionals.  Limited amount of materials can be ordered for controlling wastage.

BIM must be credited for the metamorphosis of AEC industry!

The metamorphosis of conventional construction methods into innovative methods must be largely credited to BIM technology. Building Information Modeling is a highly productive technology for AEC professionals since it has huge magnitude and potential to handle all types of complications associated to construction projects.  Initially when BIM technology was not prevalent in the landscapes of Architecture Engineering and Construction industry, accomplishment of construction projects was challenging or demanding task for AEC professionals.  During that time architects and engineers used to perform most the construction related activities directly at the proposed location and hence they used to meet a lot of design problems at the time of final construction. And because of this AEC professionals used to face a large amount of rework situations which largely used to increase the project cost.   Rework is not only accountable for increasing project cost but it also resul...

How to Implement BIM in Medium-Sized Companies Effectively?

BIM has emerged as a remarkable new technology for structural and architectural building designs for its implementation in medium-sized companies. Before application of Building Information Modeling for medium size companies several queries and challenges occurs regarding the technical expertise of the employees, delay in projects as a consequence of introduction of newer technology and rising costs. These kinds of query and troubles pertaining to BIM implementation may be simply fixed by carrying out basic training and efficient planning of application of BIM Services. Hence with the aid of appropriate planning and minimal preparation BIM can be effortlessly and successfully implemented into medium-sized companies without significant intervention and disturbance. • Commencing with BIM: Application of BIM Services in medium size company can be referred as Process modification phenomenon. The employees of company ought to be equally associated with the decision making process o...

BIM: A game changing invention for AEC industry

It’s been centuries since construction work has begun commercially. Every passing decade added some innovation and left with a limitation to deal with. Of course it is undisputed that the industry was getting better and better yet the pace of this advancement wasn’t really remarkable. The issues like degradation in productivity, rising cost, delay in completion of the project were still to solve. Well, these are the issues which have hindered the growth of the construction industry. Each stakeholder belonging to this field was seeking salvation, until Building Information Modeling was invented and reached out to the public. The age brought by high tech tools including BIM is defined in golden letters in the book of Architectural and Engineering industry. Initially Architectural drawings used to be developed manually. Though, AutoCAD 2D architectural software was launched afterwards which has made this task a bit easier, but highly advanced and organized software was y...
