THE POWER OF DIGITALISATION

In BIM management, we make mutual BIM agreements between the various parties involved in complex projects. We clearly map out the project's BIM objectives and translate them into a BIM protocol and a BIM execution plan. This way, all parties speak the same language and models and information are delivered correctly. In BIM coordination, we combine the models of all disciplines (architecture, stability, building services, etc.) in one BIM model, and clash them with each other. In this way, we relieve all project partners of their worries, detect errors in time and guarantee smooth progress during execution on site.

During a construction project, the various project partners produce a variety of documents as well as a mass of data. By setting up standard processes to produce, collect and approve this data, we avoid inconsistencies and incomplete information. At the end of the project, we can thus easily transfer the structured data and documents to be used efficiently in the building's operation phase.

In principle, on-site execution is controlled directly from the central BIM model. Nevertheless, adjustments sometimes still happen on site that are not included in that model. This makes it unreliable, both for further execution and for use in the operation phase. By checking on site both visually and with 3D scanning whether the works carried out correspond to the BIM models, we guarantee the quality of the as-built models.

We ensure that BIM is a means and not an end. BIM must not become a burden but must be put usefully in function of the project. We lay down procedures but avoid unnecessary work. Everything we do is in function of the smooth and efficient progress of the project.

BIM is teamwork. We look at how to achieve the most useful BIM flow within the construction team. Together with the client, we ensure that BIM is used in the most efficient way possible and we deploy all resources to maximise the team's efficiency in doing so.

We keep our finger on the pulse of digitalisation to make the entire construction process as efficient as possible. By centralising and structuring the large amount of information generated in such a project, we make it accessible and manageable for all construction partners and the building manager.
