BIM’s provide up-to-date and reliable information of the project design, scope, cost information, schedules, energy analysis, structural design, facility management, etc.

They take the 2D CAD Drawing & Drafting solutions to the next level by adding the management of relationships between building components, which allows information about the intent of the design to be captured in the beginning of the design process.

BIM’s provide data that can be extracted for various uses, including:

1 2D CAD Documentation.

2 3D CAD Modeling & Visualization.

3 Analysis and design verification.

4 Quantity Surveys.

Immediate benefits from using a BIM:

1 More accurate than 2D drawings.

2 Better coordination between all involved parties.

3 Lowers costs – such as those incurred during construction, because a BIM is a higher quality set of documents.

4 BIMs also help to decrease construction costs and costs for quantity surveys.
