11. Training Testimonial
Jeremy Hidderley, Principal Consultant
at AECOM Ltd
• Attendee of one of our BIM courses in 2018
• "I recently attended one of BimEnable's BIM training days, taught by
Steven Eglinton. It was a great introduction to BIM... and has certainly
given me some actions to take back to the company I work for to
ensure that our clients and ourselves are getting the most out of the
digital transformation that we're seeing within the engineering
industry."

12. Training Testimonial
Carol Lewis-Han, Technical Director at DDC
Engineering Solutions Ltd
• Attendee of one of our BIM courses in 2015
• "From the course, I learned what BIM is, and what BIM level 2 is about and why
BIM needs to be adopted and the challenges. I have had a brief idea about UK
Government BIM standards – BS/PAS 1192 suite. And I have also understand the
open BIM data standards, e.g. COBie and IFC.
• The course also showed me how geospatial is part of BIM as well as metadata
and gave me an idea as a Geospatial professional how BIM affects me and what
our company and myself needs to do about it.
• GeoEnable & BimEnable provide very impressive BIM training. The director
Steven Eglinton is extremely knowledgeable and shows real expertise and
experience in BIM field, and he is willing to help at all times even after the course.
Very pleased with the service and will fully recommend."

13. Training Testimonial
Craig Evenden, Head of Engineering,
Construction & BIM at Esri UK
• Attendee of one of our BIM courses in 2018
• "I recently attended one of BimEnable's BIM training days along with a
number of other Esri UK employees. Steven’s knowledge of BIM is second
to none. The course outlined the key principles of BIM before taking a deep
dive into Government BIM standards.
• This course highlights the role BIM plays in the engineering and
construction industry as well as many others. This has helped Esri UK
increase its BIM knowledge, while enabling our staff to have detailed
conversations with customers when discussing the importance of BIM &
GIS workflows”.

• ‘Where’ is the key for context – but, this is granular enough in your Asset
Management System (AMS)?

20. Why ‘Geo-Enable’ Asset Management?
Combines AMS and GIS capabilities:
• Organise information by location
• Facilitate integrated planning
• Report project progress
• Visualise assets in context
• Identify patterns and trends
• Validate asset location
• Accessibility of CAD and survey information

Kingsway in 1904; the largest public square since Trafalgar Square in
1845.”
Richard Godwin
Evening Standard Magazine
 An extraordinary part of London is taking shape
 50 new buildings, 2 000 new homes, 20 new streets, 10 new public
squares, 67 acres (27 ha) , 45 000 people who live, work and study in
the area

• It is very important to identify where this sharing can be free and
where it should be tightly controlled. Steven Eglinton, from
GeoEnable, helped us with reviewing our existing
information systems and helped us align them all with
optimised business processes. This was absolutely critical.
• GeoEnable assisted us with the improvement of information
governance and formal processes which in return significantly
enhanced access to Argent’s GIS and other information resources.”
