BIM Execution Plan
Why do you need BIM Execution Plan at all?
BIM can bring a lot of advantages to your project, such as: increased design quality, cost reduction due to better planning and design visualization, design time reduction due to less rework and effective information exchange among team members, more predictability during construction due to construction process simulation, etc. However, all these benefits can be lost, if BIM process is not planned properly and the team members have no common understanding of what role BIM plays in a project.

Therefore, the importance of outlining BIM Execution plan is tremendous.
For a project team, BIM Execution Plan creates the following benefits:
- Clearer vision of the deliverables;
- Serves as a starting point for new team members that join the project at later stages;
- The parties, involved in the process will have a better understanding of their roles and responsibilities in BIM implementation;
- Outlines the information about additional resources and training needed for successful BIM implementation;
- Describes interfaces between disciplines;
- Gives an information about the level of detail needed for a model
Considering the above, BIM Execution Plan reduces the risk that arises when advanced technologies are implemented due to careful planning and common understanding of BIM purpose in a project. BIM Execution Plan contains the following information:
- BIM goals and uses;
- BIM process outline;
- Information exchanges procedures;
- Delivery strategy;
- Communication procedures;
- Technology infrastructure;
- Model quality control procedure.
Our BIM Specialists can help you to go through all these steps and outline BIM Execution Plan for your project purposes. They will consider the following: the end use of a BIM model; specialists' BIM knowledge level and technology infrastructure that are already in your disposal. On this basis, BIM specialists will analyze the necessary model level of detail as well as the software and training required for your specialists to implement the project. Collected information will be summarised into a plan with clear guidance. This plan will serve a good basis for BIM implementation in your project and make sure that you will acquire all the benefits that BIM can bring you.
