Ever since BIM raised its pretty multi-dimensioned head within the AEC industry, most talk and action has been focused on its role in prevention, rather than cure of construction projects.

There are no projects too small or too large for BIM 360 coordination. This means having participation from all parties—including the GC, architect, consultants, AND subcontractors. Not all the consultants work in 3D modeling, and most subcontractors are not fully BIM capable. This is why our hires are very strategic.
