Why General Contractors need BIM and how to make it work!
In this episode, Mel chats with Gabriela Kozameh, a subject matter expert in BIM, she is the Director Strategy & Consulting at Voyansi and the Senior BIM consultant at the Port Authority Of New York New Jersey.
They discuss the importance of BIM for General Contractors and how to make it work for their firm by reducing risks and ensuring proper coordination during the construction project. They also explore how different project delivery methods impact BIM implementation and the considerations for selecting the best method. Additionally, they highlight the role of general contractors in managing timelines, quality, and resource allocation.
The conversation concludes with a discussion on the benefits of BIM for general contractors and its use in pre-construction, construction, and post-construction phases.
Takeaways
- BIM is crucial for general contractors as it helps reduce risks and ensure proper coordination during the construction phase.
- The selection of the project delivery method impacts how BIM is implemented, and it is important to consider the project's needs and goals.
- General contractors play a vital role in managing timelines, quality, and resource allocation on building projects.
- BIM provides numerous benefits for general contractors, including cost reduction, improved efficiency, and data-driven decision-making.
- BIM can be used in pre-construction, construction, and post-construction phases to streamline workflows and improve project outcomes. BIM is a valuable tool for GCs throughout the construction project life cycle.
- Laser scanning helps identify design flaws and validate designs.
- BIM models can be linked to project schedules and used for cost management.
- The federated model combines all project files for coordination and simulations.
- BIM software and data integration are crucial for effective implementation.
- The BIM execution plan outlines the project's BIM strategy.
- GCs can participate in the facility management stage by adding data to the BIM model.
