Description
About This Program
Specifiers and designers have envisioned an integrated design process for decades. Separate design processes for modeling and specifications require more collaboration and time, while inevitably introducing errors. These errors and omissions can cause 5-10% or more of the project cost, a perception of poor quality in the design, delays in operations, and more. Designers need integration and coordination in their design process to improve time to delivery and reduce RFIs, addenda, and change orders. Without making changes to BIM models, designers can link the elements and materials to the required specifications and other documents.
Session Takeaways
-
Integrate their models and specs to view errors and omissions.
-
Improve design processes and team collaboration.
-
Save time in design through process integration.
-
Link specs and related docs to BIM models.
