BIM Coordination for a Commercial Project in the UK

Project Snapshot • Project type: Commercial development • Location: United Kingdom • Client type: Consultant • Project phase: Design + Construction • BIM services: Multidisciplinary BIM coordination, 4D-ready models, drawing production • Disciplines: Architecture, Structure, MEPF • Software: Revit, Navisworks, ACC The Challenge • The project was required to comply with UK ISO 19650 information management standards • Multiple design packages were progressing in parallel, increasing coordination complexity • The client needed faster coordination and sign-off cycles without compromising information quality • There was a requirement for BIM models that could support both coordination and sequencing Our BIM Approach • We established ISO 19650-aligned workflows, including MIDP and TIDP, to manage information delivery across disciplines • All models were federated into a single coordination environment and developed to LOD 300–350 • Coordination reviews were carried out on a bi-weekly federation cycle, supported by defined clash-avoidance rules • Coordinated sections and 4D-ready model views were produced to support sequencing and stakeholder reviews • Information quality and consistency were maintained to support efficient approvals and downstream use Results & Impact • Coordination cycles were accelerated by approximately 15–20% • Faster design approvals and sign-off were achieved through clearer, more reliable BIM outputs • Reduced design friction between disciplines and packages • Improved confidence in model-based coordination across the project team Value Delivered • Acted as a UK-compliant BIM delivery partner, ensuring adherence to ISO 19650 requirements • Reduced programme risk through structured information management and coordination • Supported smoother transition from design into construction • Demonstrated proven capability in delivering regulated BIM environments for UK commercial projects
