BIM is dead, please do not resuscitate!

DebunkTheBIM

If there are similar rules for establishing viable crops of BIM around the global AEC industry, they’re better be longer than 30 years. Even a decade or so ago, I could see that BIM was nothing like an emerging success story. May I call them BIM-doom-deniers?

There is ONE critical thing every building-project owner should know about BIM!

DebunkTheBIM

When it comes to BIM, the industry seems to split neatly over two groups: One, a tiny one is made up of those that publicly accept to know absolutely nothing about BIM and are happy to stay as such. The other, a significantly larger group consist of almost everyone else and they are the ones that know ‘everything’ about BIM.

An open request to the author of the article: ’How Building Information Modeling Saved One University $10 Million’ – Please substantiate your claim!

DebunkTheBIM

There’s been a great little ‘article’ circling the web recently, claiming ‘How Building Information Modeling Saved One University $10 Million’. Let me make it clear, I do not question the ability and capability of BIM to save money, time or other resources. Hold back the vitriol, all publicity is good publicity for BIM.

DebunkTheBIM

Many based on and around BIM. This time thing, that we were doing things 10+ (If not 20) years ago that others nowadays call new and revolutionary brings me to the topic I really wanted to write about, and that is ‘how important time is (or is not) in getting BIM really working within this industry?’ Nothing less.

DebunkTheBIM: The weak link in AEC projects: consultants are.

DebunkTheBIM

I consider myself to be a model-based construction information practitioner (shortened to a ‘BIM- meddler’) rather than an ‘expert’ or even ‘specialist’ Friday, May 4, 2012. The weak link in AEC projects: consultants are largely unable to manage their projects well. Who needs BIM flowcharts?

Is Two D from Two D still cheaper than Two D from Three D?

DebunkTheBIM

Should documentation that is based on a coordinated 3D digital model be charged at a higher price than straight CAD-ed one is? Should a client have the right to choose one over the other without wanting to pay for a full blown BIM? Not to talk about if the practice (2D based 2D) should still exist, at all. I.e. it is cheaper this way.
