By 2007, I was introduced to BIM and started to prefer 3D modelling over 2D. Today, we store all of our documents in the cloud. This means there's no longer any doubt over where the latest version of a document is or whether we're working from the most up-to-date drawing.

The main driving force behind a successful project is improved commissioning—and that’s what you’ll learn about below. . Much like shipbuilding, the process involves a series of documenting, scheduling, and testing processes. Important aspects of this well coordinated process include centralizing communications and documentation.

Our main issue in the design process came when we had to integrate our designs, which were developed in different tools,” says John. The design models needed to correlate, and equipment interfaces needed to be seen. We can talk about a model in real-time and see what has been changed for better versioning control.”

Historically, main contractors retained ownership over project data, and sharing this data effectively with owners at the end of a project was often met with difficulties. Enabling broad access to information and yet setting permission levels on certain documents means we can optimise access to project data,” says Juri.
