46. Case Study
In January 2007, we started working with a reputed 50-year old 200 p
y , g p y person architectural
firm based in Texas. Client had decided to transition to BIM and were experimenting it
on a few small projects.
The first task received was to create as built interior model for a mall based on CAD
drawings and site photographs. This work was completed well within the time and as
per their expectations.
In February 2007, we started working on another large Children Hospital in Texas. With
5 resources and a project manager we could build entire model and could able to
produce working drawings out of it.
Along with this project, the client also gave us more work on 3 other projects. One
project was a large Retail project in Denton, Texas, that had 24 separate buildings. In
this project, some buildings are being done by the client with regular inputs from our
team.
