21. { }3 Use Case
Before and After

22. • Inconsistent site productivity
• Difficulty in pin-pointing root cause of low project performance
• Scope Definition is dependent on S/C
• Data / Workflows silos
• Difficulty in matching linking sources of information
(documents, material, model)
• BIM lifespan ends at the design coordination phase
• Re – Entering same data several times
• Planning function is limited to 4D and progress presentation
• Inconsistent reporting from different stakeholders for the same scope
Before

23. • Identified reasons for low productivity and taking
prompt corrective measures
• BIM is the single source of truth for the project scope
• Full integration between ERP, BIM, Planning,
Estimation and site systems
• BIM is being used by most of the project team
,Planning, Estimation, Contracts, Construction etc…
• Proper System Integration “Data is entered once used
every where”
• Planning is the heart of construction management,
providing work fronts through workflows
After
