3 What is a BIM Manager Well, it depends Depends on the function of the office Historically been on design side Engineers leading data charge GCs now needing BIM Coordinator In-house skills (or) Subcontract tasks Specialist BIM consultants 3

5 BIM Roles Who are the Players 5

6 Roles WB Design Studio Specific Global Design Technology Director Studio Design Technology Manager Project BIM Coordinator Experience with BIM, Design/Visualization, Parametric/Generative, and/or Analysis applications Design Technology experience across all project phases, with an emphasis on technology implementations 6

7 BIM roles Skills Current position Skills Technical prowess Technical knowledge of your discipline Project Workflow Understanding Needed Skills for the future Overall Project Workflow Coordination Collaboration wisdom Management/People Skills Negotiation prowess Ability to interact directly with Senior Management and Owners Team Building 7

9 Collaboration Communication Processes Defined by BXP Based on NatSpec BXP Coordination schedules Shared facilities, resources Online collaboration 9

10 Collaboration Exchange Standards Defined by BXP Based on NatSpec standards Model Exchange Standards LOD Definitions Online collaboration 10

11 Collaboration Exchange Schedules Defined by BXP Based on NatSpec standards Model Exchange Schedules Phase handovers Meeting schedules 11

15 Collaboration Soft Skills Required More than just technical know how and ability Integrated to the whole design process with a broad skill set Understanding project workflows and project management. Understanding different needs of the delivery team (architects, engineers, estimators and contractors). Technical knowledge of the BIM application used, related systems and network infrastructure, and awareness of new technologies. Communication and training skills (verbal and written), Teaching and Coaching skills to bring new team members up to speed. Ability to communicate the benefits of BIM firm-wide Objective decision-making in times of crisis 15

16 Integration Challenges Whole industry is Resistant to change Current model benefits firms who takes the most short cuts The best design and safest construction will not be the cheapest 16

17 Integration How to drive Success Understand the deliverables required by Owners & Market Balancing outputs of what deliverables will cement your relationships with Owners AND helps your firm deliver a profitable project? First steps are a model tied to budget and schedule so that the Owner can see how a design change impacts cost and time. Constructability reports Resource-loaded schedules Work in place report Cash flow forecast 17

18 Trust and Commitment BIM success Faith in the numbers Garbage in Garbage out Prove the process Models are 1000 times more powerful than a PDF 18

19 Recap Snapshot BIM Manager's responsibility reaches much farther than design coordination and constructability management. BIM is more than the 3D model Cost and Schedule data as driver of integrated 5D data. BIM Manager will be one of the main orchestrators of a redefined business process for construction firms. 19
