COURSE OVERVIEW:

Welcome to the Implementing BIM Processes in Daily Construction Operations course. This program is designed to provide you with the skills, tools, and applied knowledge necessary to integrate Building Information Modelling (BIM) into day-to-day construction activities across Australian building and infrastructure projects.

BIM is more than a digital tool—it is a collaborative process that enhances communication, accuracy, and coordination throughout the construction lifecycle. This course begins by clarifying the role of BIM as a workflow approach, rather than a singular software application, and explores its evolution within Australian construction delivery. Participants will gain insight into how BIM supports planning, coordination, and quality control across daily site operations, enabling teams to work more efficiently, safely, and with greater precision.

Successful BIM implementation depends on clearly defined responsibilities. This section explores the roles of BIM Managers, Coordinators, and site-based BIM users, and how they interface with engineers, site supervisors, and subcontractors. Participants will examine strategies for communicating model expectations and responsibilities to all trades to ensure consistency and accountability.

Compliance with national and international BIM standards is essential. This section outlines key frameworks such as the National BIM Guidelines and ISO 19650, and how to apply them within site operations. Participants will learn how to adhere to project naming conventions, file structures, and data-sharing protocols to ensure interoperability, auditability, and industry alignment.

The BIM Execution Plan (BEP) is central to structured implementation. This section guides participants through interpreting project-specific BEP requirements, understanding defined workflows and approval stages, and applying these protocols to daily site tasks. The focus is on using the BEP as a living document that drives consistent model usage and governance onsite.

BIM supports dynamic construction scheduling through 4D modelling. This section explores how to link model elements to time-based sequencing, visualise upcoming construction milestones, and communicate planned work using model animations to improve coordination across teams and trades.

Daily model use requires effective navigation skills. This section introduces practical tools such as Navisworks, Revizto, and BIM360, enabling workers to access federated models on mobile devices or site kiosks. Participants will gain confidence in locating model elements, viewing object data, and interpreting the model hierarchy in real time.

BIM-driven coordination identifies design clashes early. This section outlines how to conduct clash detection reviews, interpret coordination reports, and participate in resolution workflows. Participants will learn how to escalate unresolved conflicts and update models collaboratively to reflect accurate site conditions.

Drawing extraction remains essential for site execution. This section explains how to produce 2D shop drawings from BIM models, validate their consistency with current design intent, and use model mark-ups to raise clarification requests. The focus is on reducing rework by maintaining tight alignment between documentation and live models.

BIM enhances procurement and logistics. This section explores how model components can be tagged with order and delivery data, allowing for just-in-time scheduling and real-time tracking of materials. Participants will learn to use the model to monitor delivery status and manage inventory effectively onsite.

Survey and layout tasks benefit from BIM accuracy. This section demonstrates how to export coordinate points for robotic total stations or GPS units, and how to align physical set-out with model locations for walls, penetrations, and slab edges. BIM-driven layout significantly reduces manual entry errors and rework.

Integrating safety planning with BIM is a growing practice. This section examines how to embed scaffolds, exclusion zones, and cranage plans into the model, simulate site stages using 4D safety modelling, and review emergency plans directly within the digital environment.

Subcontractor engagement is crucial to BIM success. This section provides guidance on enabling subcontractors to interpret model views, share trade-specific model data, and manage access through controlled permissions. Participants will also explore how to encourage model literacy across all site contributors.

Model-based issue management streamlines RFIs and problem resolution. This section explains how to raise RFIs directly from BIM elements, tag issues within Common Data Environment (CDE) platforms, and track resolution workflows through structured issue logs that tie back to site tasks and program timelines.

BIM improves quality assurance and defect tracking. This section introduces methods for embedding QA checklists into model workflows, spatially locating defects for clear communication, and linking remedial actions to handover documentation to support project closeout requirements.

Progress reporting is enhanced by visualisation. This section explores how to mark completed works in the model, reflect as-built conditions through updates, and use this data to support subcontractor claims, client updates, and verification of construction milestones.

Cost management benefits from integrated 5D BIM practices. This section examines how to extract live quantity take-offs, monitor material usage, and track cost impacts using the model. Participants will also explore how BIM can integrate with project control software to support cost forecasting and variation tracking.

A Common Data Environment (CDE) ensures model integrity. This section outlines how to manage documentation, model versions, and RFI workflows within a shared platform. Participants will learn to maintain version control, audit trails, and secure access for all model interactions.

BIM continues beyond handover. This section introduces Asset Information Modelling (AIM) for facilities management, including how to attach operation manuals, maintenance data, and warranty records to model elements. Participants will learn how to prepare models for export into FM software to support long-term asset lifecycle management.

By the end of this course, you will be equipped with the applied knowledge and tools to implement BIM processes effectively within daily construction operations—enhancing coordination, safety, quality, and accountability across all stages of on-site delivery.

Each section is complemented with examples to illustrate the concepts and techniques discussed.
