• Establish and enforce BIM standards, templates, model naming conventions, and workflows across all disciplines (Architectural, Structural, MEP, Infrastructure).
• Lead the integration of BIM protocols, model coordination, and data management systems throughout all project stages—design, construction, and handover.
• Manage multi-disciplinary BIM coordination, ensuring models are fully integrated and clash‑free through tools like Navisworks Manage, BIM Collaborate Pro, or Solibri.
• Conduct model audits, clash detections, and coordination meetings, documenting and tracking design issues to closure.
• Supervise and guide BIM Coordinators, Modelers, and Engineers in model setup, data entry, and compliance with project standards.
• Oversee the creation and maintenance of Common Data Environments (CDE) such as Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC Docs), BIM 360, or SharePoint.
• Ensure information exchange (LOD/LOI requirements) is properly defined, controlled, and delivered according to project milestones.
• Support data extraction, model‑based quantity take‑offs (QTO), and 4D/5D BIM integrations with scheduling and cost control teams.
• Integrate BIM processes with project planning (Primavera/MS Project) and cost management systems for 4D and 5D simulations.
• Lead the adoption of Digital Twins, GIS integration, and asset data models for operations and maintenance phases.
• Identify opportunities for workflow automation using tools such as Dynamo, Python, or Revit API scripting to improve efficiency.
• Review and validate all BIM models for geometry accuracy, data completeness, and standards compliance before submission.
• Implement QA/QC checks and model review logs to ensure model integrity throughout the project lifecycle.
• Conduct internal BIM audits and produce reports identifying non‑compliance and corrective actions.
• Provide ongoing training and technical support to BIM Coordinators, Engineers, and Drafters to ensure consistent adoption of BIM best practices.
• Develop training materials, standard workflows, and process documentation to enhance in‑house BIM capability.
• Mentor project teams in collaborative model sharing, coordination practices, and version control procedures.
• Represent the company in BIM coordination meetings, client presentations, and consultant discussions.
• Ensure BIM deliverables meet client information requirements (EIR) and project BIM protocols.
• Collaborate with IT and project management teams to ensure BIM software, licenses, and hardware infrastructure are properly maintained and supported.
• Prepare weekly and monthly BIM progress reports, highlighting coordination status, model health, and key issues.
• Track BIM performance metrics such as model coordination turnaround time, clash resolution rate, and compliance scores.
• Continuously evaluate new BIM technologies and workflows for implementation across projects.
