We shape a better world

Bridging both worlds - A unique blend of

technical expertise and commercial acumen

to deliver innovative solutions

Our desire to shape a better world drives our

approach and is at the heart of every one of

our projects.

Cities ‘Integrated resilient

solutions to urban

environments’

Health ‘Communities and

environments that

sustain and enrich life’

Connectivity ‘Networks that

underpin our way of

life’

Resources ‘Efficient and

appropriate usage of

finite resources’

“A BIM is a digital representation of physical and functional characteristics of a building. As such it serves as a shared knowledge resource for information about a building forming a reliable basis for decisions during its life-cycle from inception onward.”

So What...............

I want help our clients improve organisational outcomes

though better performing buildings and infrastructure that:

the community values

meet real business needs

perform better

impact the environment less

take less time and money to build and to use

There is proof that BIM can contribute

to these objectives....

Tangible Benefits:

• Up to 40% elimination of unbudgeted change.

• Cost estimation accuracy within 3%

• Up to 80% time reduction to generate a cost estimate.

• Up to 10% savings of contract value from clash detections.

• Up to 7% reduction in project time.

But.....

....we need integration

So what do I mean by integration.......

“…the term ‘Total Architecture’ implies that all relevant design decisions have been considered together…. integrated into a whole by a well organised team empowered to fix priorities.”

Sir Ove Arup, The Key Speech, 1970

Making sense of it all

From: Kari Karstila, Eurostep

BIM enables whole of life modelling......

To achieve this we need a strategy

Processes

Tools

Communication/Collaboration

Better

across-the-board

outcomes

There is a better way....

Integrated BIM facilitates vastly improved information flow

throughout the life of the projects, that will enable better

product quality and value for money investment.

• Improved understanding of project fundamentals.

• Satisfaction in meeting user, space and performance requirements.

• High quality information for decision making.

• Project information on time for key decisions.

• Better team coordination/collaboration.

• Early mitigation of potential conflicts.

• Improved sequencing of construction.

• Risk reduction - increased confidence in design, construction and

operational costs.

A few examples..........

Existing Site Conditions Modelling

• North- East Wind in Winter

• Analysis of wind environment is mainly focusing on the typical wind direction in order to simulate the situation and guiding the planning proposal. To avoid winter strong gusts, wind stagnation and weaken air ventilation in summer.
