BIM

We have more than 20 specialists in Building Information Modelling (BIM) supporting our design teams across all project types and scales.

BIM is our process of developing an information-rich digital model of our projects.

The data we can extract from these models offers a range of benefits, including providing greater certainty over projects costs and enhancing planning and coordination on-site. This results in a smoother, faster design and delivery process.

Just as importantly, we use these powerful visualisations to communicate our work with clients.

Collaboration

We employ cloud platforms to exchange and coordinate project data wherever security policies allow. This ensures shared information is up to date and helps us meet challenging programs working alongside our extended project teams.

Our team also has deep expertise in Digital Engineering and BIM Management, regularly providing these services to our clients.

Digital analysis

BIM allows us to explore the third dimension of our designs and beyond (including looking at time and cost).

We always try to extend our use of BIM processes and outputs, leveraging them for tasks such as real-time walk throughs, fabrication analysis, sustainability, 3D printing, and much more.

“The demands on our built environment and infrastructure are always increasing, along with imperatives for sustainability. We want to help meet those growing needs by expanding our skills and productivity with automated tools, making the most informed, data-driven decisions, and delivering net-zero carbon outcomes on our projects.”
