Position: BIM Quality Assurance / Quality Control Analyst

Experience: 5-8 Years

Employment Type: Full-Time

Base Set Design Co (India) provides architectural documentation and BIM services for international projects, with a strong focus on the Australian architecture and construction industry.

We are looking for an experienced and detail-oriented BIM QA/QC Analyst to ensure that all architectural BIM models, drawings, and documentation meet the highest standards of quality, accuracy, and compliance before being delivered to clients.

Key Responsibilities 1. BIM Quality Assurance & Quality Control

• Perform detailed quality checks on architectural BIM models and documentation produced using Autodesk Revit.
• Review drawings for accuracy, consistency, completeness, and compliance with project requirements.
• Identify modelling errors, documentation discrepancies, coordination issues, and missing information.
• Ensure that all deliverables comply with established BIM standards, client requirements, and project-specific documentation guidelines.
• Establish and maintain QA/QC checklists for different project stages.

Key Responsibilities 2. Architectural Documentation Review

• Review architectural documentation across various project stages, including:
• Development Application (DA)
• Design Development (DD)
• Preliminary Documentation
• Tender Documentation
• Issued for Construction (IFC)
• Verify floor plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules, annotations, dimensions, and sheet coordination.
• Ensure consistency between drawings, models, schedules, and specifications.
• Review documentation for compliance with relevant Australian building codes, NCC requirements, and applicable Australian Standards.
• Identify constructability issues and potential design or documentation conflicts.

Key Responsibilities 3. BIM Model Auditing & Coordination

• Conduct regular audits of Revit models for model health, file structure, naming conventions, and modelling standards.
• Review model organisation, worksets, families, parameters, linked models, and documentation setup.
• Identify clashes and coordination discrepancies between architectural, structural, and MEP models.
• Use Navisworks and other BIM coordination tools where required.
• Ensure modelling accuracy appropriate to the project's specified Level of Development (LOD).

Key Responsibilities 4. Quality Reporting & Corrective Actions

• Prepare QA/QC reports identifying errors, observations, and required corrections.
• Categorise issues based on severity, priority, and impact on project deliverables.
• Coordinate with BIM architects and project leads to resolve identified issues.
• Verify corrections before approving documentation for client submission.
• Track recurring errors and recommend preventive measures.
• Maintain records of internal quality reviews, client markups, and corrective actions.

Key Responsibilities 5. Team Training & Quality Improvement

• Provide technical feedback and guidance to BIM architects and documentation teams.
• Identify knowledge gaps and conduct training sessions to improve documentation standards.
• Develop standardised QA/QC procedures and best practices.
• Analyse client feedback and implement measures to minimise repeated errors.
• Work closely with project leads to improve team productivity without compromising quality.

Required Skills & Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Architecture (B.Arch) or a relevant qualification in architectural design or construction.
• Minimum 5 years of experience in architectural BIM modelling and documentation, preferably with quality control responsibilities.
• Advanced proficiency in Autodesk Revit.
• Strong understanding of architectural drafting, detailing, construction methods, and documentation practices.
• Experience reviewing Australian architectural projects and familiarity with the National Construction Code (NCC) and Australian Standards.
• Ability to independently review complete architectural drawing packages.
• Strong knowledge of BIM workflows, documentation standards, and model coordination.
• Proficiency in AutoCAD, Navisworks, Bluebeam Revu, and BIM 360 / Autodesk Construction Cloud.
• Excellent attention to detail, problem-solving skills, and technical communication.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and meet tight deadlines.

Preferred Qualifications

• Previous experience working with Australian architecture firms.
• Experience in retail, commercial, hospitality, and fit-out projects.
• Knowledge of ISO 19650 BIM information management principles.
• Experience developing BIM QA/QC checklists and standard operating procedures.
• Familiarity with automated Revit model auditing, Dynamo, and BIM validation tools.
• Experience mentoring junior architects or BIM modellers.

Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

Performance will be assessed based on:

• First-Time Quality: Percentage of drawing packages approved during initial QC review.
• Client Markup Reduction: Reduction in technical errors and repeat observations from clients.
• Documentation Accuracy: Accuracy and completeness of architectural drawings and BIM models.
• QC Turnaround Time: Timely completion of quality reviews without affecting project deadlines.
• Corrective Action Closure: Timely identification, tracking, and verification of corrections.
• Process Improvement: Implementation of preventive measures, quality standards, and team training.

What We Expect

We are seeking someone who takes complete ownership of documentation quality rather than simply checking drawings against a checklist.

The ideal candidate should have a strong architectural understanding, be capable of identifying potential issues independently, and proactively guide the design team towards delivering accurate, coordinated, and professionally documented projects.

• Our objective is to achieve consistently high-quality, client-ready BIM deliverables with minimal errors, reduced rework, and improved client confidence.
