Job summary

The Blue Barrel Pte. Ltd. is seeking a BIM Modeller (Electrical) to develop and maintain accurate 3D BIM models of electrical systems, including power distribution, lighting, ELV, and cable containment, from design intent through construction‑ready coordination.

The role requires strong Revit/MEP proficiency, solid knowledge of electrical building services, and collaboration with engineers and site teams to resolve clashes and support installation. 6 days work on Alexandra Hospital project.

Qualifications

• Diploma or Degree in Electrical Engineering, Building Services, Mechanical & Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum 2–5 years of BIM modelling experience, with focus on electrical/ELV systems.
• Proficiency in Autodesk Revit MEP (essential); familiarity with Navisworks for clash detection.
• Reading electrical drawings, single-line diagrams, and specifications.

Responsibilities

• Develop 3D BIM models for electrical systems based on drawings and input.
• Convert 2D drawings into coordinated 3D models following BEP and LOD requirements.
• Conduct clash detection and coordination with ACMV, plumbing, fire protection, and structural models.
• Produce and update shop drawings, cable schedules, and installation drawings from the BIM model.
• Maintain model accuracy and version control per BEP.
• Support quantity take-offs, material schedules, and drawing extraction.
• Attend BIM coordination meetings and document clash resolutions.
• Update models to reflect site variations, RFIs, and as-built conditions.
• Ensure models comply with BIM submission requirements.
• Assist in preparing BIM deliverables for statutory submissions.

Job description

6 days work at Alexandra Hospital project

Role Summary

The BIM Modeller (Electrical) will be responsible for developing and maintaining accurate 3D BIM models of electrical systems — including power distribution, lighting, ELV, and cable containment — from design intent through to construction‑ready coordination. The role requires strong Revit/BIM software proficiency, a solid understanding of electrical building services, and close collaboration with engineers, other trade modellers, and site teams to resolve clashes and support installation.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop 3D BIM models for electrical systems (power distribution, lighting, ELV/low current, cable trays/containment, standby power) based on design drawings and engineering input.
• Convert 2D electrical drawings and single-line diagrams into coordinated 3D models in line with project BIM standards and LOD requirements.
• Conduct clash detection and coordination with ACMV, plumbing, fire protection, structural, and architectural models; resolve clashes in collaboration with other discipline modellers and engineers.
• Produce and update shop drawings, cable schedules, and installation drawings derived from the BIM model.
• Maintain model accuracy and version control in line with project BIM execution plans (BEP).
• Support the electrical engineering team with quantity take-offs, material schedules, and drawing extraction from the model.
• Attend BIM coordination meetings, documenting and tracking clash resolution and design changes.
• Update models to reflect site variations, RFIs, and as‑built conditions.
• Ensure models comply with client, consultant, and regulatory BIM submission requirements.
• Support the preparation of BIM deliverables for statutory submissions where applicable.

Required Qualifications & Experience

• Diploma or Degree in Electrical Engineering, Building Services, Mechanical & Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• Minimum 2–5 years of BIM modelling experience, with a focus on electrical/ELV systems in building services or construction projects.
• Proficiency in Autodesk Revit MEP (essential); familiarity with Navisworks for clash detection and coordination.
• Working knowledge of electrical building services systems and how they are represented in 3D models.
• Familiarity with BIM standards, LOD requirements, and BIM execution plans (BEP).
• Ability to read and interpret electrical drawings, single‑line diagrams, and specifications.
• Good attention to detail, spatial coordination skills, and ability to work collaboratively with multi‑disciplinary teams.

Preferred Attributes

Experience with Singapore BCA BIM submission requirements and CORENET X is an advantage.

Familiarity with AutoCAD and other supporting design software.

Experience working on commercial, industrial, or institutional building projects.

Ability to manage multiple project models concurrently and meet coordination deadlines.
