What problems can BIM help the project manager solve?

In the construction phase, what are the advantages of the application of BIM to the project manager? BIM technology can help project managers solve many problems through data support, technical support and cooperative support.

Raise bid rate

Through the BIM system construction scheme more reasonable and more dazzling effect, show the powerful visualization scheme, precise engineering quantity and cost, can improve the competitiveness of a bid, improve the successful rate, a considerable number of enterprises and projects using BIM technology to enhance the competitiveness of the bid, the case has numerous. Bidding does not use BIM technology, it is a backward group.

Project planning

The project won the bid, how to better implement, in order to obtain the maximum benefit, control the time limit, guarantee the quality and safety, the project department will carry on the project plan, formulate the implementation goal. How to do a better job of project planning, make good use of BIM technology, no doubt can make the project planning ability substantially improved.

Support the use of BIM data, establish a cost plan, purchasing plan, financial planning, material planning, personnel week plan, support the use of BIM technology, making the cost more reasonable and more reasonable project construction plan, find the technical difficulties, construction difficulties, security risks.

Upgrading process planning control capability

The powerful data capabilities of the BIM system can help project managers take control of plans and anticipate resource requirements and output goals for subsequent progress.

Raise funds to pay the ability to control, prevent suppliers, subcontractors overestimate risk.

The project process involves a large amount of payment decisions, including payment audits by suppliers and subcontractors. The traditional management ability of project managers in this area is rather difficult. How much should I pay and why do I pay so much? See the following operation layer submitted bill payment, do not have the ability to audit, repeated hesitation, difficult decision, both consume a lot of energy and time judgment, but not accurate conclusion. If you have problems with the operating layer, it's hard to see and even be overhead, not a real project owner.

Prevent flying list

The supplier to fly alone in state-owned enterprises, private enterprises, a large number of projects generally exist, is a profit the biggest flaw, although often use video surveillance, said loadometer management means the project, an ultimate method is short period two or even three is compared, and the actual budget comparison consumption, can often be exposed, but also achieve total control of material consumption.

The traditional management tools can not be done in time, short cycle of the three calculation contrast, a large number of management vulnerabilities can not be found in a timely manner, BIM technology in this area has a strong real-time data supply capabilities.

Control duration

The use of BIM technology, through accurate positioning function, collision check, check, clean the reserved hole fast resource calculation and visualization tests and other functions, help the project timely find out various professional conflicts, reduce rework, rapid and collaborative construction, to speed up the construction period.

Reduce security risks

The use of BIM technology, timely identification of risk sources, program simulation, visual security disclosure and other applications to enhance project safety control capabilities.

Substantially increase profits and reduce costs

Focus on the construction phase of the BIM solutions, to help project managers calmly command and control production, significantly improve the level of fine management, reduce costs and achieve a full range of receivables, a substantial increase in profits.

Lower one's demands

The project is becoming more and more complex, and the amount of data is getting larger and larger. The number of managers and technicians can not keep up with the demand of the business. BIM technology helps every position and all kinds of complex operations to improve work efficiency and quality, and reduces the demand for people.

Enhance coordination ability

Based on cloud computing, the collaboration of the Internet is realized, and the remote and efficient collaboration is reduced and cooperative errors are reduced. Project managers conduct management decisions from remote verification of data, and project personnel use unified, accurate model data and visual communication to achieve efficient project communication.

Control more projects

Based on these capabilities, project managers are able to control more projects and manage more difficult projects.

Reduce your workload and make yourself more relaxed

For project managers, the work pressure, workload, with project level BIM system, you can reduce more work, so that you can more easily manage the project, improve quality of life. (source: China Construction Enterprise Management Association net)
