Assignment Brief
The scenario -
In this assignment, assume that the company you currently work for rely on ‘traditional' methods of project design. They are considering the move to a BIM-enabled design process and need to understand the implications in terms of:
• collaborative working across design, construction and facilities management teams,
• expanding their staff and training to manage the transition to and ongoing running of BIM-enabled projects, and
• creating a BIM Execution Plan which will be used for all future projects.
Your response should include the following information:
• An explanation of the key terms and definitions in Building Information Modelling (BIM) and how it relates to the construction industry.
• An explanation of the terms that support BIM dimensions and the key themes surrounding BIM.
• An analysis of the importance of BIM, the ways in which it can be utilised and how key terms should inform all members of a project team.
• A critical analysis of the impact of BIM on construction and how it can positively affect the phases of a project.
• A BIM execution plan, critically evaluated and showing an understanding of BIM dimensions'
influence on a project.
