Company Process Assessments

BuildingPoint Midwest and Gulf Coast’s AECO industry experts will evaluate your company processes from BIM, Estimating, Scheduling and Project controls.  We will work with your company’s various departments to understand your current processes and report on areas of potential enhancement and improvement.  Our process involves numerous one-on-one interviews with department team members which include outlining process flow diagrams. 

At the conclusion of our assessment, a detailed company-wide process report will be produced that includes a road map for implementing process improvements, including opportunties for new software and hardware solutions.  Before implementing a new process or software solution we recommend a detailed review of your current processes.

Virtual Design and Construction Process Implementation

VDC is the process of using BIM tools to virtually design and build your project. Increase project productivity through the creation of a project BIM and coordinate the flow of work in a virtual environment that can be easily replicated in the field.

From project coordination via Tekla BIMsight to model-based estimating and scheduling via Vico Office, BuildingPoint is your go to resource to help companies and project teams with their VDC process implementations and specific project needs.  We will lead the VDC process across your project from acting as the BIM coordination lead to managing your Integrated Project Delivery team.

  • Stop prototyping your project in the field, instead prototype it virtually to better impact your project budget and schedule
  • Use the project BIM deliverables to visualize your project Schedule and Budget
