Contractor MBG embraced BIM on a major multi-million pound hospital project \u2013 and saw the challenge pay off<\/h2>\n

With the increase in public-private partnerships (PPP), the Government\u00a0UK BIM<\/a> mandate, Brexit ramifications<\/a> and possible government standardisations, the digital solutions choice of whether or not to use digital solutions is gradually being taken out of the hands of prime contractors on a global scale. Owners and government agencies are instead making the call, indicating that digital solutions are likely here to stay.<\/p>\n

Project partners are seeing the benefits from increased communications efforts because of technology and as the tide of BIM and Virtual Design and Construction keeps rising, getting pushed into the water might just be the best way for firms to learn how to swim.<\/p>\n

Belgian contractor MBG<\/a> is doing just that, taking the BIM plunge for the first time on the Belgian Industrial CFE affiliate\u2019s \u00a3105m AZ Sint-Maarten Hospital project in Mechelen \u2013 hardly the ideal project on which to experiment.<\/p>\n

The public and privately funded nature of the project left the firm little room to negotiate on technology solutions. (This is not a full PPP project but financially, private partners VZW Emmaus-AZ Sint-Maarten need to follow rules applicable to government instances because they benefit from the project\u2019s subsidies.)<\/p>\n

\u201cOur client made the decision to design this hospital in BIM,\u201d says project manager Bens Bervoets.<\/p>\n

As the contractor for the project, MBG was more than willing to adapt to the digital challenges head-on.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is one of the first big projects here in Belgium being done in BIM format, with Revit creating a 3D model,\u201d says Bens.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith a five-year build plan totalling nearly \u00a3303m for the finished hospital, the wide-open possibilities of how technology would be implemented on such a grandiose project was the first obstacle to tackle.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor projects like this, there is a mountain of project information that has to be transferred to the right people, at the right time. Modern technology can provide solutions for everyone<\/a> to make their job more efficient.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Not lost in translation<\/h3>\n

As a project manager, Bens\u2019 key challenges include ensuring the information from the complex BIM programmes could be properly translated and sent to the field, as well as gaining project partner approval for all updated drawings.<\/p>\n

\u201cNormally, we would get some drawings from our contractors and subcontractors and we\u2019d have to review them, which would require me to print the drawing and make all my remarks the old school way, on a table with all my drawings as colours,\u201d he explains.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd then I\u2019d have to go to our offices in Antwerp and scan them in A0 size. This is not a very complicated process, but it takes a lot of time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Instead, Bens used Revu to translate the informational drawings and host the mark-ups.<\/p>\n

\u201cNow with Revu, I can make all my mark-ups in the programme digitally, send them to the specialist contractors and suppliers, and they can easily send me their revisions in a PDF. We primarily use the annotations, hyperlinking and measurement tools. It\u2019s a good programme because not every contractor, and definitely not every specialist contractor or smaller player on the project, has the BIM software or the right staff to work with it. So, especially with smaller specialist contractors, we use Revu.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you can show it, they\u2019ll know it<\/h3>\n

The other component that eased MBG\u2019s transition to BIM was the very device that showed the drawings.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are using a big touchscreen because it can show an A0-size drawing without zooming,\u201d Bens says.<\/p>\n

\u201cThat makes it an easier adjustment for workers who are used to checking drawings on the plotter paper.\u201d<\/p>\n

Not only did MBG save money and time by not needing to print on plotter paper, but also project latency was practically eliminated between drawing approval and posting on the touchscreen.<\/p>\n

Bens elaborates: \u201cWe use the screen for meetings with the foremen of subcontractors so that our site superintendents can easily discuss short-term planning, because you can take a floor map of, for example, level two of the building, and you can mark it up easily using Revu on the big screen. You can easily make mark-ups with colours and then we can save it on the project extranet [making it possible to carry the documents along on site using an iPad] or send it to them by email.\u201d<\/p>\n

On track and moving ahead<\/h3>\n

Despite using BIM for the first time, MBG\u2019s AZ Sint-Maarten Hospital project is moving full steam ahead and, more importantly, is right on schedule.<\/p>\n

Bens and his MBG team are happy to have taken on the challenge: \u201cFor this project, there were a lot of test cases coming together. We had the screen, and BIM and Bluebeam Revu, and I think these will become standard practices on our future jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n
