BIM meets project management

Project management or BIM management?

Successful projects of today and tomorrow can no longer ignore Building Information Modeling (BIM).
Public clients aren't the only ones who know this. BIM offers numerous advantages for your daily work, such as optimized evaluation criteria for planning progress and cost development. Thanks to model-based work, many processes can be tracked on a daily basis, improving communication and enabling comprehensive quality management. This way, everyone involved benefits from more effective project implementation and a successful completion.

The use of BIM positively expands your role as a project controller and manager. While BIM management is typically performed by specialized experts, it is important to understand and review the requirements and capabilities of an external BIM manager. This course will provide you with solid basic knowledge in the field of BIM!

Project control and BIM management!

Indeed, recent tenders show that clients are increasingly viewing the requirements for traditional project management and BIM management as an integrated function. According to AHO Issue 9, BIM management and project management remain separate services, but their processes and tasks are becoming increasingly intertwined in the project context.

BIM management lays the foundation for the smooth implementation of BIM processes, especially at the beginning of a project. This includes, for example, establishing intervals for data handovers, model reviews, and report generation. During the project, BIM management ensures that all participants provide their data on time, thus enabling seamless digital project management. Do these tasks sound familiar to you?
