  • Review design drawings, specifications, equipment schedules, and material submittals before modelling
  • Check dimensions, pipe sizes, elevations, flow directions, equipment locations, and system layouts for accuracy
  • Support the preparation of material take-offs and quantity schedules from coordinated BIM models
  • Maintain quality control records and incorporate review comments within agreed project timelines

4. Project Support & Collaboration

  • Work closely with design engineers, project managers, site teams, estimators, procurement teams, and subcontractors
  • Provide updated drawings and model information to support construction, fabrication, installation, and commissioning activities
  • Assist site teams with technical clarification, installation details, and drawing revisions
  • Support preparation of operation and maintenance drawings, record drawings, and handover documentation
  • Maintain accurate records of model revisions, drawing submissions, approvals, and coordination comments

5. BIM Standards & Continuous Improvement
