Purpose:
This course is primarily intended to introduce project, construction, and facility managers to Building Information Modeling (BIM). BIM is a project life-cycle system that results in a virtual information model passed from the design team, to the contractor, to the owner or facility manager. While this is not a “How to use BIM software course”, participants will learn what to expect when BIM processes are used on their projects. Knowledge gained in this course will allow students to understand the steps taken to complete a BIM project and how their collaboration with the team members early on in the conceptual/design stages of the model can add significant value to the project.
Description:
This course provides an overview of the impact of BIM on managers and addresses their roles and responsibilities in dealing with BIM requirements and deliverables. BIM’s strength lies in its ability to identify project conflicts upfront, which in turn eliminates cost prohibitive changes required later on in the construction process. Class will facilitate discussions to identify relevant, standard BIM data requirements and the respective workflows during each phase of the project life cycle. BIM is an evolving process that results in a much better project because you have team members collaborating from the project outset and have the ability to understand how changes at each project phase might impact the end result.
Prerequisites:
Project Managers, Construction Managers, and Facility Managers (GS-09 – GS-14), Series 0800 and 1640.
