Benefits
Virtual Build Team
• Greater Design and Technical Control
The client and design team have greater control over
design intent and technical challenges, helping to
facilitate solutions to problems that would be cost
prohibitive or otherwise insurmountable.

• Greater Freedom in Design
The power of Virtual Build modeling adds greater
freedom to quickly experiment with multiple
iterations of new design concepts.

• Coordinated Design Disciplines
Coordinate all design disciplines into one
three-dimensional built space, utilizing a single source
Virtual Build model for greater project understanding,
coordination, collaboration and communication.

• Accurate Bid Estimating
The Virtual Build model provides the means by which
the design team can extract accurate quantity
takeoffs, allowing more realistic cost estimates and
bill of materials, increasing the confidence and
predictability in project budgeting and bid estimating.

• Greatly Reduce RFIs and Change Orders
Software analysis and visualization tools aid in the identification
and resolution of three-dimensional spatial problems,
dramatically reducing RFIs and Change Orders that would
otherwise have occurred on the job site

• Enhanced Job Site Coordination
Fabrication extraction and visualization techniques enhance job
site coordination between the general contractor,
sub-contractors, fabricators and suppliers.

The Virtual Build model provides a single source of project coordination, fostering communication, stability and efficiency,
as well as extending beyond construction into the life cycle of the building by providing the means to effectively manage
the facility.
