Federated BIM model, mixed-use development

Systematized BIM services in Berlin.

Production, coordination and governance to ISO 19650, delivered as a full BIM team for consultants, contractors and developers. No internal hire, no management overhead.

Berlin's pipeline moves in waves. Your headcount doesn't have to.

Schools, housing quarters and public buildings arrive in batches, and each batch used to mean recruitment. 260+ engineers on call, no Berlin hire required. Capacity expands for the deadline and contracts after it, while your core team stays the size you want.

Eight capabilities, no added headcount

Everything your project needs from a BIM supplier, carried by one team so scope never falls between vendors.

  • 3D BIM modelling

    Architecture, structure and MEP modelled in Revit to one standard, federated in Navisworks and kept coordinated through every revision.

  • Revit family creation

    Office-standard Revit families built to your naming convention and LOD requirement rather than pulled from a public library.

  • 4D, 5D and 6D simulation

    Time and cost layered onto the model: 4D sequences for planning, 5D quantities for budget control, 6D where operations needs it.

  • Shop drawings & detailing

    Shop drawings detailed from the coordinated model, so what your trades install matches what the designers federated.

  • Scan to BIM

    Point clouds from older fabric turned into dependable as-built models for refurbishment and extension work.

  • CAD to BIM conversion

    Decades of 2D archives rebuilt as intelligent 3D models, one drawing set at a time.

  • BIM for facility management

    Handover data structured for CAFM import, so your operator inherits a database rather than a deliverables folder.

  • Quantity take-off & BOQ

    Quantities extracted from the model against your cost codes, with every revision re-measured automatically rather than by hand.

Three sets of eyes before it leaves.

Every JES deliverable moves through a fixed Author-Checker-Approver gate, tracked in the CDE. The same standard whether it's engineer 3 or engineer 250.

Author
Model and documentation produced to the MIDP task card. Self-review against the project QA checklist before submission.
Status: WIP
Checker
Independent review against the BEP and federated model. Defects logged, deviation report returned to Author.
Output: Deviation report
Approver
Signed off against EIR and LOIN. Promoted from WIP to Shared or Published in the CDE.
Status: Published

Without a gate at the door, the familiar failures follow: packages slip, trades clash on site, the BEP stops being followed, and handover data arrives incomplete. The Author-Checker-Approver record on every JES file keeps those failures off your project.

Proof from the Gulf portfolio

Metro lines, terminals and residential towers coordinated to ISO 19650 across the Gulf, now delivered to European offices on European hours.

What changes when delivery runs to a system

  • Construction-ready output

    Drawings issued on schedule from a federated model that has already been through coordination, so your site questions get shorter with every package.

  • Your team stops chasing deliverables

    Every deliverable signed Author, Checker, Approver before release, with live dashboards in place of weekly status chasing.

  • Runs to standard

    ISO 19650 set up at project start: EIR, BEP and CDE configured before modelling begins, not reconstructed for the audit.

Common questions about BIM in Berlin

Both. We produce the models, drawings and coordination, and we govern the information through the BEP, the CDE and the ISO 19650 gate. One accountable team owns both, not a consultancy advising next to a shop that draws. When Berlin's schools and housing arrive in batches, that single line of ownership means each wave is produced and governed the same way.

Yes. A delivery lead owns your programme and embeds in your coordination, backed by 260+ engineers on European hours. Capacity expands for the deadline and contracts after it, so a batch of public buildings never means a recruitment round. Your core team stays the size you want, and you carry one accountable name rather than a permanent bench between waves.

Yes. Our consultants embed in your studio, author the BEP, set the LOD and hold every package to ISO 19650. You keep the design authorship that won the competition; we take the production follow-through into construction documentation. One named lead stays accountable across the batch, so the office standard holds from the first plot to the last without adding heads.

Yes. We scan the existing structure, register the point cloud and build a coordinated record model that matches what stands, which suits Berlin's conversions and refurbishments of older public stock. Every discipline then coordinates against that verified base rather than against out-of-date drawings. It gives your team a reliable starting point before new work is designed into the fabric.

Architecture, structure and MEP, authored in Revit and federated in Navisworks for regular clash cycles on one model. For builds where a dozen subcontractors share that model, we federate, clash-check and issue so your site meetings stay short. Every file clears the Author-Checker-Approver gate against your BEP, so shop drawings reach the trades at construction tolerance.

Scope, disciplines, LOD and programme length set it. A residential quarter modelled to a high LOD across several plots carries more hours than one school package, so we price each engagement to the actual work rather than a day rate. The lowest-risk way to test the output and the QA is a zero-cost pilot on one package before the wider batch commits.
