Roles & Responsibilities
1 Coordinate with engineering department heads and designer personnel to support overall scope and schedule of BIM/VDC activities to be performed on assigned projects Support BIM Execution Plan (BEP), Coordinate with VDC Manager and project production and management team(s)
2 Obtain equipment, infrastructure, design models and other electronic documents from the design team, vendors, client, and other 3rd parties; coordinate proper file protocols on Autodesk Construction Cloud with the design team, support vendors and subcontractors; perform site visits as necessary and collect data required to perform modeling tasks
3 Lead/facilitate project model coordination meetings with design team, subcontractors, client, and support vendors; perform clash detection between the design model and fabrication models in order to resolve conflicts prior to purchase / IFC / fabrication / installation
4 Support engineering teams and projects in development of native authoring tools (Revit / AutoCad / Tekla) scripts / macros / reports / etc.
5 Perform clash detection and interface of various Project design disciplines during preconstruction to assist the design team s quality control efforts and to ensure the constructability of projects during design; assist with ensuring a accurate and complete transition from design to preconstruction through construction to operations
6 Proactively become familiar with general project scope to identify safety concerns (OSHA), model conflicts, design discrepancies, or other risk factors and review with operations and management personnel
7 Ensure that communication and proper documentation is maintained with Engineering departments, 3rd parties, and VDC Manager in regard to all BIM / VDC issues for their particular projects
8 Participate in project kick off meetings, design review meetings, preconstruction meetings, and operations/project meetings when BIM / VDC related review sessions / meetings, as required
9 Prepare BIM / VDC Action Items List for assigned projects and review with VDC manager; achieve scheduled completion of assigned tasks to meet project requirements; assist in ensuring that others assignments are coordinated and met
10 Perform, audit, and / or manage distribution of electronic documents for modeling activities, organize and maintain a complete inventory of electronic BIM / VDC documents for all projects, ensure measures are in place to monitor, validate, verify, and track design changes / version control
11 Ensure questions regarding projects and model information are properly documented and addressed to the design team.
12 Support the creation, development and ongoing maintenance of BIM / VDC models, conversion of 2D plans or PDF s to 3D models, scan-to-BIM for projects, create conceptual models based on similar projects and historical cost information
13 Conduct detailed model reviews to meet quality control expectations in regard to model accuracy and completeness.
14 When necessary, develop models for demonstration of site staging and logistics plans, construction phasing, project sequencing and scheduling
15 Prepare still images or live animations and show viewpoints or perspectives of building for demonstration of project requirements
16 Assist Engineering operations personnel in the utilization of BIM / VDC for visualization, coordination, and constructability and prepare models to effectively convey cost management alternatives, when appropriate
17 Assist Engineering personnel with quantity extraction and ensure the preparation of clear, properly formatted material takeoff schedules from the building model
18 Develop animated construction timelines within the building model to demonstrate 4D scheduling / sequencing / phasing simulation
19 Follow and define ESI modeling guidelines and policies in regard to assigned tasks, assist VDC Manager in the development of BIM / VDC policies and procedures, templates and standards, as well as in researching, evaluating and implementing new BIM / VDC technologies
20 Establish credibility and confidence with clients, design teams, subcontractors and internal team members through effective use of BIM / VDC technology
21 Strive to attain 100% Customer Satisfaction for all BIM / VDC projects, as well as internal satisfaction with engineering operations and management
22 Participate in training opportunities, continuing education, as well as outside BIM / VDC user groups and conferences
23 Participate actively in promoting the understanding, acceptance, and utilization of BIM / VDC, while acknowledging industry standards and internal feedback
