BIM Outsourcing Use Cases
Project Documentation: Building a complete Revit model from architectural drawings, coordinating with structural and MEP, and producing construction documents from the coordinated model.
CD Production: Taking a design-stage Revit model and developing it to construction document level — adding details, schedules, dimensions, and notes.
Clash Coordination: Federating multi-discipline models in Navisworks, running clash detection, producing clash reports, participating in coordination meetings, and maintaining updated models.
As-Built BIM: Converting PDF as-built drawings to Revit models for facility management use.
LOD Development: Developing models from LOD 200 to LOD 350 for specific project phases.
