TransformModelsintoConflict-Free,Construction-ReadyIntelligence.

BIM Coordination is not just the process of assembling models; rather, it requires all of the building systems to be coordinated in the real world. Clash detection is a service that analyzes the BIM models to detect clashes and soft clearance violations as well as workflow conflicts in the pre-construction stage.

"Reduce rework costs by up to 70% with 100% clash-free model coordination."

Rule-based clash detection is performed through Navisworks and Revit according to your BEP & ISO 19650 specifications. Our coordination processes span LOD 100 to LOD 400, ranging from alignment at the concept stage to system integration at the fabrication stage.

FederatedModelCoordination:FromIsolatedDesigntoIntegratedReality

BIM coordination starts with aggregating discipline-specific models—architecture, structure, and MEP—into a single federated environment. Using Navisworks, we run rule-based clash tests to identify every geometric conflict and clearance violation within the model space.

Each clash is reviewed, categorized by priority, and assigned to the responsible trade through an issue tracking system. Our coordination cycles continue iteratively until the model is fully coordinated and construction-ready—eliminating surprises during installation.

SmartClashResolutionforSophisticatedBuildingSystems

Our clash resolution approach involves automatic clash detection and human intervention. Instead of simply detecting issues, we recommend practical ways of solving them—rerouting MEP systems, altering the positions of structural penetrations, or modifying clearances, among others.

The federated modeling process provides full visibility of all building systems in order not to fix one problem and create another. The coordination log tracks all problems until they are solved; therefore, we can have a fully coordinated model without any clashes.

PopularQuestions

BIM coordination involves the merging of architectural, structural, and MEP models into a single federated model to detect and correct any spatial conflicts. The clash detection technique is used to detect three types of conflicts, namely: hard clashing (which involves physical interference), soft clashing (involves violation of clearance), and workflow clashing (schedule conflicts).
Our clash detection is based on the rules set by you in your BIM Execution Plan, which are tolerance-based. The tolerance level we use allows us to detect clashes down to millimeter accuracy and also allows the configuration of clearances for MEPS, access, maintenance, and seismic issues.
We support RVT, IFC, NWC, and DWG formats for model acceptance. We have Navisworks Manage as our primary clash detection tool, BIM 360 as our cloud collaboration tool, and Solibri as our primary rule-based validation tool.
For complex projects, we implement structured coordination workflows with regular coordination cycles. We use federated models to manage large datasets, prioritize clashes by criticality, and conduct weekly coordination meetings to track resolution progress. Our BCF-based issue tracking ensures every clash is logged, assigned, and verified before final delivery.
