We integrated the BIMcollab practice for our BIM Coordination meetings, making it possible to discuss issues, solve issues and document them immediately. “Trust me, I know what I am talking about: you won’t be disappointed. After trying and getting to know the BIMcollab workflow, you will not want to go back. I don’t!” says Agron Deralla BIMster at AllesWirdGut Architects.

By making fast model validation accessible for everyone, Pieters Bouwtechniek' teams are collaborating better than ever. The engineers agree: “this is what we’ve been looking for!" Pieters Bouwtechniek is a leading, independent engineering firm specialized in structural engineering and employs approx. 170 specialists. Maarten Lubbers started his career as an architectural draftsman and is currently BIMMER at Pieters.

 

Tony Fitzpatrick, Architect and Head of BIM Development, shares his BIM journey from “redlined drawings” and lengthy meetings to smooth workflows and effective collaboration. “I realised that there had to be a better, more cost-effective way of managing the design process”. Tony Fitzpatrick, Architect and Head of BIM Development at AW2 Architects, shares his BIM journey from “redlined drawings” and lengthy meetings to smooth workflows and effective collaboration.

AECOM discovered soon that managing all the issues and clashes with Navisworks only was unmanageable due to the large amount. Kuwait International Airport Terminal 2 is a 750.000 sqm project designed by Foster & Partners. For the 25 million passengers that are passing through annually it will be a state-of-the-art building with a high level of comfort, and will set a new environmental benchmark for airport buildings.

BIMcollab brings various groups of designers, users and clients on the same page again, enabling them to truly work together and achieve success, fast. Before and within vrame we (Marc and Jens) worked on numerous BIM projects, but we didn’t have a thorough issue management process. Identifying and resolving issues in the design and construction phase was always an intense period of producing loads of e-mails, revision clouds and phone calls; a diffuse and inefficient process.

When I started working as an architect, I always wondered how architects used to work before CAD software existed. Now our new employees ask me: How did you manage without an issue management platform? Speaking is Diogo Bastos, BIM Manager at Archipel Generalplanung. ''In a BIM project with more than 10 different disciplines, more than 5 different authoring software tools and around 200 IFC models, efficient communication is the key to success. Thats why we chose for BIMcollab.''
