BIM serves as Digital Asset Management Tool


BIM as digital design change management tool. BIM offers the development, management, and presentation of BIM data to all users in the lifecycle. During construction, these data are used for change management and decision-making.

BIM provides better design refinement by resolving design decisions faster and earlier in the project. BIM also provide more precise design analysis. The models and data are linked to other digital design tools for analyzing structural stability and energy consumption.

BIM generates better collaboration between all related project stakeholders as for example HDR architects and engineers will be able to share design information in many dimensions to have a look of the whole design. This is also applicable while working with specialists or contractors as well as with clients. Thus the value of a project is enhanced with the increased communication among partners across disciplines.

BIM allows the designers to apply changes dynamically. The designers get the ability to refine design intention to meet the client’s requirement within the scheduled time.

Working with BIM allows designers to see the changes and make choices and decisions quickly and earlier in the process. And those changes can be evaluated as they relate to the building as a whole.

BIM technology also helps automate lower-value tasks (call-out boxes, for example). You still have to drive the software and make design choices. But automation makes things much more efficient and allows the emphasis to be on design.

Clients are presented with a more holistic and three-dimensional view of the project through the use of animations and renderings. Clients no longer have to review numerous sketches and assemble the building design in their mind. With BIM, it is right in front of them.

This new presentation method comes with challenges. Sometimes a client or partner is not ready to see a building in a fully rendered state or cannot properly understand all of the data. Sometimes it is best to show what is appropriate for a particular decision point. Thankfully, BIM allows this and can show just one part or aspect of a project at a time. BIM acts as a consultant to help a client’s decision-making process.
