PROJECT BRIEF

We have completed the project in two phases to produce a coordinated MEP-FP model from an existing condition of the building. Project scope in phase 1 required redesigning and remodeling of existing conditions of the building, so we developed the current condition model by collecting the point cloud scanning data and underground utility scanning data. Further, we audit the existing condition model and rectify maximum errors. In the next phase of the project, we have modified and updated the existing condition model with the new design intent model. In the entire project, we ran multiple onsite and offsite interdisciplinary clash coordination to reduce clashes, change orders, and RFI’s. Our continued collaboration with the designers and contractors for the design inputs has led us to deliver the final coordinated BIM Model.

Project skills & expertise

Our experience of BIM modeling and clash coordination services led the design and engineering team to successfully execute the design for the renovation project. Our BIM modelers and drafters team were consistent in delivering quality work with quick turn-around time throughout the project.
