Too much focus on 3D visualization, too much “reinventing the wheel” trying to fit a square peg in a round hole, and virtually NO EMPHASIS upon the requirements for life-cycle management… associated competencies, domains, technologies, ongoing collaboration, integration, and continuous improvement.

BIM based computerized quantity take-off and cost-estimating solution has flourished in the last 4-5 years. Quantity take off procedure can be enhanced with BIM as estimate of the quantities are derived from BIM models and the model contains the information on all the objects in the building in addition to their dimensions.

The challenge is achieving an integrated solution with estimating, scheduling and project management capabilities while addressing detailed job costing. If integration is important, and you really want to avoid silos between finance, estimating and operations you’ll want to look at Corecon. It’s all there.
