BIM management

Execution
of a BIM project

A BIM project, or Building Information Modelling project, is a collaborative working method that allows you to design, build and operate a building in an efficient and optimised way. This method is divided into three phases: study, execution and operation. The execution phase is the one that allows the project to be carried out using the data and information collected during the study phase. It consists in setting up the plans, the digital models and the management tools necessary for the construction of the building. This page will focus on this crucial phase of the BIM project.

Mastering the execution phase of a BIM construction project is of paramount importance to ensure on-time delivery and respect the allocated budgets. The client’s satisfaction is a central concern throughout the construction of the structure. Link-BIM provides you with structured processes for optimal management of the realisation of your BIM projects. We support you in the implementation of BIM tools for effective monitoring of these processes.

Who is BIM execution monitoring for?

Our BIM project execution solutions are aimed at all those who follow the execution of the works, from the earthworks to the finishing works. They involve the use of building information modelling software to ensure effective collaboration between all stakeholders. Careful verification of all elements should be carried out in order to quickly detect any errors or omissions. Indeed, client satisfaction is essential to guarantee loyalty and trust in our services for future BIM projects. Therefore, rigorous monitoring of each step of the work process is the main objective of our methods.

Economic advantages of BIM execution monitoring

The cost associated with setting up BIM execution monitoring varies depending on the number and type of checks performed. However, this cost is quickly amortised because errors can easily be blamed on those responsible for execution, who cannot deny their responsibility. A common example is an agent forgetting a penetration hole that requires drilling. In addition, the long-term use of the digital model of the building, made possible by BIM, allows us to achieve substantial savings in terms of maintenance and operation.

How to implement it in a BIM project?

In order to guarantee a successful integration, it is imperative that the project is designed according to the principles of BIM from the outset. This approach will allow us to quickly equip your teams with the necessary tools and to carry out effective compliance checks. If you do not have a model, it will then be necessary to digitally model part or all of the building in order to initiate BIM execution monitoring. In this case, it is essential to identify the elements to be controlled in order to limit costs.

Our solutions for an optimised execution phase

Our solutions are based on various technologies, including the use of our Trimble X7 laser scanner to monitor discrepancies between reality and 3D models. The HoloLens guarantee dynamic and constant monitoring of the works management.

We also carry out continuous monitoring of the models of the agents in order to detect any possible modification and to evaluate its impact on the project.

The observations all converge on the BCF format on a collaborative platform that brings together all the comments of the project.

We are currently designing innovative solutions in-house, with the aim of providing constant innovation on your job sites. We also offer BIM training to help you optimise the use of these tools. In addition, we are committed to facilitating the exchange of structured data between all site stakeholders. We look forward to introducing you to these new methods.
