BIM Coordination & Modeling

We provide in-house Building Information Modeling (BIM) coordination services to identify and resolve conflicts before installation begins. Our dedicated BIM department uses advanced 3D modeling and clash detection to ensure accurate coordination across all trades.

BIM Services We Provide

3D Modeling & Coordination

  • Mechanical system modeling in Autodesk Revit and Navisworks
  • Ductwork, piping, and equipment layout coordination
  • Clash detection with structural, architectural, and other trades
  • Virtual coordination meetings with project teams
  • Model-based takeoffs and material tracking

Laser Scanning & Reality Capture

  • High-definition laser scanning of existing conditions
  • Point cloud generation and registration
  • As-built documentation for renovation projects
  • Scan-to-BIM model development
  • Virtual site verification before equipment delivery

Construction Detailing

  • Shop drawing generation from coordinated models
  • Spool sheets and assembly drawings for piping systems
  • Duct layout drawings with precise dimensions
  • Support and hanger layouts
  • Cut lists and material optimization

Advanced BIM Expertise

BIM Manager & Certified Coordination

Our BIM department is led by a certified BIM professional with extensive experience in mechanical coordination. Our team uses industry-standard software and follows established protocols for model sharing, clash resolution, and version control.

We coordinate with architects, structural engineers, electrical contractors, and other trades to ensure the mechanical systems integrate seamlessly with the building design. Our BIM manager attends coordination meetings, tracks RFIs, and maintains model accuracy throughout construction.

Technology Stack

We utilize professional-grade tools for BIM coordination:

  • Autodesk Revit: 3D mechanical system modeling
  • Autodesk Navisworks: Clash detection and coordination
  • FARO Focus Laser Scanner: Reality capture and point cloud generation
  • Trimble Robotic Total Station: Layout verification and quality control
  • Bluebeam Revu: Model markups and coordination reviews

In-House Capabilities

Our BIM department handles all modeling internally, ensuring quality control and direct coordination with our field teams. This integrated approach allows us to:

  • Identify and resolve conflicts before installation
  • Generate accurate shop drawings and installation details
  • Coordinate effectively with all project stakeholders
  • Maintain model accuracy throughout construction
  • Deliver comprehensive as-built documentation

Project Experience

We’ve provided BIM coordination services for complex mechanical installations including:

  • Hospital Renovations: Laser scanned existing central plants and modeled new chiller systems to verify fit before equipment delivery
  • Educational Facilities: Coordinated mechanical systems for multi-story additions with tight ceiling spaces
  • Federal Projects: Delivered full BIM coordination for secure facilities requiring precise documentation
  • Industrial Retrofits: Scanned operating plants and modeled new equipment to maintain continuous operations

Collaboration & Standards

We follow industry-standard BIM execution plans and coordinate using established protocols. Our team works with:

  • Architects for spatial coordination
  • Structural engineers for support and penetration coordination
  • Electrical contractors for panel locations and conduit routing
  • Fire protection contractors for sprinkler coordination
  • General contractors for construction sequencing

We deliver models in standard formats (Revit, IFC, Navisworks) and maintain model accuracy through construction closeout.

Why BIM Coordination Matters

Modern construction demands precision and coordination. BIM technology prevents costly mistakes, accelerates schedules, and delivers better-built facilities. Whether you need full mechanical modeling or laser scanning of existing conditions, our BIM team provides the expertise to execute your project successfully.
