Higgins Partnerships recognized that embracing BIM was no longer an option but a necessity. DDC Solutions‘ BIM for Contractors service proved instrumental in addressing these challenges effectively

• Instead of merely “doing BIM,” Higgins leveraged the developer framework to showcase their capabilities as a marketing tool, demonstrating exceptional value to potential projects.
• Through BIM, Higgins developed a digital representation of the building with all relevant data, ensuring compliance with project requirements and efficient management by the Information Manager.
• By setting clear communication standards and expectations for design information, Higgins ensured that data met their standards, avoiding delays and budget issues. Efficient processes enabled quick updates when necessary.
• BIM allowed Higgins to streamline the integration of design teams, as designers had access to resources and standards, ensuring timely delivery of information.
• The BIM for Contractors service facilitated seamless coordination with subcontractors through technical resources, training, support, and clear communication, enhancing Framework Optimization.
• Utilizing 3D information across various aspects of the project, from design to site planning and marketing, our tailored approach allowed Higgins to reduce waste and improve efficiency. Higgins had access to site planning tools and libraries based on construction processes, enabling a unified approach.
