Webinar details
This webinar explores how Building Information Modelling (BIM) can transform decision-making processes in construction projects. Attendees will gain insights into how BIM integrates 3D modelling, scheduling, and cost estimation within a unified framework to support data-driven decisions. Additionally, the webinar will highlight how BIM fosters collaboration across disciplines by creating a shared platform for stakeholders, enhancing communication throughout the project lifecycle.
The session will also focus on BIM’s critical role in promoting sustainable outcomes, emphasizing its ability to optimize resources, encourage lifecycle thinking, and integrate environmental, social, and economic considerations into project planning. By exploring the conceptual and strategic advantages of BIM, participants will be equipped with the knowledge to enhance project efficiency, collaboration, and sustainability.
- The webinar will be recorded and will be sent out to registered attendees afterwards.
