BIM Construction Cost Estimating – Top Ten List

Building Information Management

While the industry is currently fixated upon 3D visualization tools, aka Revit, Archicad, Bentely… they only represent components of a BIM solution. Consistent Format and Terminology – Use of a standard set of terms and data architectures such as Uniformat, Masterformat, Omniclass.

Forget “BIM”, and Get on Board with BLM – Building / Built Environment Life-cycle Management

Building Information Management

That said, BIM has been preoccupied with 3D visualization to the extent that many/most feel that Revit, Archicad, et al are all that’s needed to implement BIM. Despite the above there remains surprisingly little collaboration within the AECOO sector(s) (Architecture, Engineering, Construction, Operations, Owner).

BIM, Productivity, Architecture, Engineering, and Construction.

Building Information Management

Revit, Archicad et al… are NOT BIM, but rather 3D visualization components of BIM. Visual estimating/automatic quantity take off ( QTO), and collaborative contract/project/document management, are all in one application. BIM is the life-cycle management of the built environment supported by digital technology.

Critical Issues and BIM – NIBS buildingSMART alliance conference – January 7-11, 2013

Building Information Management

This has included “CAD” using PEAC, GDS, MicroGDS, AutoCAD, MicroStation, SketchUp, ArchiCAD and “Raster” using Cadcore/Hitachi PrEditor, ScanGraphics, Scan2CAD, etc. and analysis on the Architecture/Engineering/Construction industry. Led GIS selection and implementation projects transitioning FM Global from paper maps to GIS.

Clouds, Collaborative and Integrated Solutions = Efficient Facility Renovation, Repair, Sustainability, and Construction

Building Information Management

The convergence of global economic and environmental change with collaborative disruptive technologies is altering the very foundation of the Facility Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operations sector. Furthermore, the fact that the sum of valued components can exceed the value of whole will become abundantly clear.
