BIM-Supported Project Control
BIM-supported project control: tracking design progress, quantities, dates and cost on the model instead of in separate lists.
Control based on the model rather than on what gets reported in the meeting.
What changes
- Design progress can be read off the model, not only off the minutes
- Quantities and cost update with every design change
- Dates hang on components, not on activity names
- Open conflicts are trackable and countable as issues
Prerequisite
A model every party maintains, and a BIM execution plan they can actually comply with. Without both, model-based control is an attractive surface over out-of-date data.
