How to improve Efficiency and Productivity Improvement with BIM

    Building Information Modeling (BIM) has emerged as a transformative technology in the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry, offering a holistic approach to project design, coordination, and management. To harness its full potential for efficiency and productivity improvement, organizations should adopt a multifaceted strategy that encompasses various aspects of BIM implementation

1. Early Collaboration and Communication:

    Encourage a culture of early collaboration among all project stakeholders. By involving architects, engineers, contractors, and owners from the initial design phase, BIM facilitates seamless communication and coordination. This collaborative approach minimizes conflicts and ensures a more integrated and efficient project development process

2. Standardization of Processes:

Develop and implement standardized BIM processes and workflows across the organization. Standardization includes defining clear guidelines for naming conventions, file organization, and model structure. This consistency ensures that all team members work cohesively and that data exchange between different phases of the project is smooth.

3. Training and Skill Development:

Invest in comprehensive training programs to enhance the proficiency of team members in BIM tools and methodologies. A skilled workforce is crucial for maximizing the capabilities of BIM. Regular training sessions and skill development programs should be part of the organization’s ongoing commitment to staying abreast of the latest advancements in BIM technology.

4. Integration with Project Management:

Integrate BIM with project management tools to create a seamless connection between design and project execution. This integration allows for real-time updates, improved scheduling, and efficient resource allocation. Project managers can use BIM data to make informed decisions, resulting in better overall project control.

5. Automated Clash Detection:

Leverage BIM’s automated clash detection capabilities to identify and resolve conflicts during the design phase. Early clash detection helps prevent costly rework during construction, saving both time and resources. Regularly perform clash detection throughout the project lifecycle to maintain coordination and minimize issues.

6. Data-Driven Decision Making:

Harness the power of BIM data for informed decision-making. Utilize analytics and visualization tools to extract meaningful insights from the model. This data-driven approach allows project teams to identify trends, anticipate issues, and make proactive decisions that positively impact project outcomes.

7. Mobile BIM Applications:

Enable on-site access to BIM models and data through mobile applications. This ensures that field teams have real-time access to the latest information, reducing errors and delays. Mobile BIM applications enhance collaboration between on-site and off-site teams, fostering a more connected and responsive project environment.

8. 4D and 5D BIM:

Integrate time (4D) and cost (5D) dimensions into BIM to enhance project scheduling and budgeting. 4D BIM visualizes the construction sequence over time, allowing for better planning and coordination. Meanwhile, 5D BIM adds cost information to the model, enabling more accurate budgeting and financial management.

9. Cloud Collaboration:

Utilize cloud-based BIM collaboration platforms to facilitate real-time sharing and updating of models. Cloud collaboration ensures that all project stakeholders, regardless of location, have access to the latest information. This centralized approach enhances collaboration, reduces communication barriers, and improves overall project efficiency.

10. Lifecycle Management:

Extend the use of BIM beyond construction into facility management and maintenance. BIM can be a valuable tool for ongoing facility management, helping organizations make data-driven decisions throughout the building’s lifecycle. This long-term perspective ensures that the benefits of BIM are realized beyond the initial construction phase.

11. Continuous Improvement:

Establish a feedback loop for continuous improvement. Regularly review and analyze project performance using BIM data. Identify areas for improvement and incorporate lessons learned into future projects. This iterative process ensures that the organization evolves with the evolving capabilities of BIM technology.

In conclusion, a comprehensive approach to BIM implementation, encompassing early collaboration, standardization, training, integration, automated processes, data-driven decision-making, mobile applications, 4D and 5D dimensions, cloud collaboration, lifecycle management, and continuous improvement, can lead to substantial efficiency and productivity improvements in the AEC industry. By embracing BIM as a transformative tool, organizations can create a more connected, collaborative, and streamlined approach to project development and management.

Overview course on BIM technology at UDIC Urban Infrastructure Development and Consulting Corporation

Continuing the success of the training course on using BIM construction software and consulting on pilot project development for the BIM Technology Department of UDIC Urban Infrastructure Development Consulting Corporation, November 16, 2017. Recently, BIM Hanoi continued to open the course Overview of BIM technology for BIM construction projects. Corporation and its departments and member businesses.

Director Hoàng Văn Cường – BIM, representing Hanoi, gave the opening speech of the course

Overview of the training session

Participants: 10 factories, 2 project departments, general planning department, investment and development department, technology department, industrial command board.

With 3 main contents including:

  • Overview of Building Information Modeling – BIM;
  • BIM application roadmap at UDIC;
  • BIM support separates materials & industrial sectors

Students came from UDIC faculties and businesses. The course provided the most overview of the presentation of BIM technology applications at UDIC and brought value to all departments and businesses. In addition, students are also trained to use software for mining, viewing data, detecting, controlling and touching, distributing BIM models and exchanging information between the construction site and the BIM technology department.

UDIC has conducted research and invested heavily in current and future technology – BIM, worthy of being in the Top 10 prestigious copper offices voted in 2017.

Visit to learn BIM technology of Shibaura Institute of Technology – Japan

 

Shibaura Institute of Technology is a private University of technology in Japan. Established in 1949 with headquarters in Tokyo. Shibaura Institute of Technology currently offers training in mechanical engineering, materials science, information technology, architecture and construction.

As part of the survey and research program on the expansion of the application of BIM Building Information Modeling in countries such as the US, UK, Singapore, Japan and Vietnam, the delegation of the Shibaura Institute of Technology – Japan had a working visit to BIM Hanoi on September 12, 2017. During this survey, the delegation not only learned about BIM application but also learned more about how infrastructure can support BIM application such as BIM classification system and instructions. , standards are being developed across countries.

Visiting BIM Hanoi’s office this time, the delegation heard a presentation about BIM training and consulting activities as well as BIM applications in a number of projects that BIM Hanoi is implementing; BIM application situation in businesses; Advantages and obstacles when applying BIM.

We believe that this business trip will bring a lot of useful information to Japanese experts about the application of BIM technology in Vietnam.
