We've talked a lot in our recent blog posts about how BIM services are such a boon for the construction industry, but a lot of construction companies are slow at utilising them through lack of knowledge. Here we share some information for these businesses to help them to get started with BIM and move along the [...]
Following on from our last blog post about why the construction industry is so slow to become digital, in this post we will take a look at the UK BIM Alliance latest report, entitled: "Going Digital: A Guide for construction clients, building owners and their advisors.' The UK BIM Alliance was set up in 2016 [...]
It is hard to deny that we are a digital nation, with many industries adopting new ways of working in order to deliver project work more efficiently and effectively. However, as a BIM company, we have noticed that the construction industry is slower to adapt to a more digital way of working than other sectors. The [...]
Digital transformation is a huge buzzword in many industries at the moment, and the construction industry is no different. It is hard to really define digital transformation as a term, as it is not just concerned with the adaption of technology but also the way that people work together. As a BIM company, we see [...]
Many industries have changed dramatically in the past few years with the advent of technology, including facilities management (FM). In fact, recent research by Frost & Sullivan (a research and consulting organisation) showed that the global outsourced FM market will reach around $1 trillion in the next six years. The interesting thing is that they attributed much [...]
When we started the CAD Room, our focus was on CAD design services, but the construction industry has moved on in such leaps and bounds in recent years that our focus is now more on building information modelling (BIM). This allows us to offer clients a more comprehensive modelling alternative to CAD and allows everyone [...]
The buzzword of the moment in the world of Architecture, Engineering and Construction is BIM. However, we know there is still a lot of confusion over BIM services and how they can help construction contractors. One commonly held belief about BIM, for example, is that it is a technology, which is not the case. BIM actually [...]
As a BIM company, much of our time is spent on producing high-quality CAD solutions for consulting engineers, and mechanical and electrical contractors which means we deal with facilities management (FM) issues as well. The introduction of BIM to the construction process has the potential to add significant value to the approach to FM, so [...]
Building design, development and construction today rely on a variety of tools - with BIM being just one of them. BIM promotes more informed decision making throughout the whole construction process, which not only improves profitability but reduces errors as well. In addition, civil construction projects, residential projects and commercial buildings, building design for healthcare [...]
Technology is changing most tasks that we undertake in our daily lives, and also our jobs, especially for those who work in the word of design, construction and bim services. Traditionally, building design has always been a little bit of a compromise: juggling budget, time restrictions, and computing power often means that the number of [...]
