Building Information Modeling for Infrastructure in State and Local GovernmentBIM is a comprehensive software solution that incorporates all the necessary elements of planning, designing, building and managing for infrastructure into one place, allowing for ongoing updates of information across systems and users.
For decades, architects, engineers and contractors have facilitated building design and redesign projects with computer-assisted design and drafting software. Two dimensional computer aided design (CAD) systems compile thousands of architectural drawings for one building to show how the building fits together. Read more...
Leveraging Building Information Modeling for Building
Management in State and Local GovernmentBIM software saves money by keeping projects on target, improving communication, and enabling energy and conservation analysis.
City, state and local government engineers who oversee infrastructure initiatives often do not have the luxury of working with linear projects that have an expected set of plans and timelines. Engineers, GIS Managers or other infrastructure-designated personnel take on broader domains of oversight, and must manage circular and repetitive planning processes relating to infrastructure elements from supervision of planning and conceptual design components to construction and management.
