Home /ESTIMATING AND BIM

From model and measurement to a usable cost structure.

BIM can provide quantities and traceability, but cost control needs rules: classification, level of detail, versions, prices and links to the cost codes used by procurement and site teams.

THE CONTEXT

Where technical and financial information meet

01

Element and chapter classification

02

Extracted and validated quantities

03

Rates, productivity and build-ups

04

Model changes and estimate changes

01

Define the use before the exchange

Not every model property belongs in the estimate. We select what is needed to measure, compare versions or prepare procurement, and assign validation ownership.

02

Control versions and exceptions

The flow records source model, date, measurement rules and unclassified elements. Changes are reviewed before quantities or values are updated.

03

Connect to procurement and project control

The resulting structure should support procurement packages, production tracking and cost analysis, even when systems retain different levels of detail.
