Building Information Modeling and Virtual, Design and Construction 

Tying Together Technology & Teamwork

The goal of the entire Project Team should be to reduce risk before tender and keep the premium for unknowns to an absolute minimum. 

EllisDon is leading the industry with our Building Information Modeling process, creating purpose built, dimensionally accurate 3D models to rationalize risk, identify issues in the contract documents and clearly delineate scope for even the most complex building systems. The model is used for every facet of our service offerings from costing to closeout.

The BIM may be the sum of many contributions from the various stake holders in the Design & Construction process or commissioned as a stand alone exercise using the best information available. EllisDon believes it is in the Client’s interest to engage in this process as early as possible before tender in order to have the most significant impact on Risk and therefore project cost.

By implementing a collaborative process, EllisDon flushes out errors in contract documents before these issues escalate to produce changes and create delays in the project schedule.  

BIM is the ultimate Risk Management tool; allowing better planning & execution through communication & clarity. EllisDon ultimately builds more efficiently, which reduces the cost of project management and significantly reduces the entire team’s exposure.

EllisDon is ready to share our best in class services for preconstruction, design coordination, constructability review, 3D submission process management and BIM for Facilities management.
