Towards BIM 2.0: Why the emperor has no clothes
This article rethinks BIM 1.0’s processes, which focuses on standardisation, and postulates how it can evolve to BIM 2.0 via systematisation.

BIM
Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a process for creating and managing all information on a project – before, during and after construction. As more and more countries begin to mandate BIM, organisations must adopt BIM to remain competitive. Parametric Monkey can aid you along your BIM journey, whether you are just starting or want to take your processes to the next level.
BIM modelling
Specific building typologies are inherently more geometrically complex than others. Parametric Monkey has extensive experience in parametrically modelling precise geometry whatever the geometric complexity. We work with your team to ensure your 3D model captures the design intent and is accurate based on the level of detail required.

BIM coordination
BIM is a collective process that requires cohesion and alignment amongst all stakeholders. We work with your team to help achieve these goals by running coordination meetings, undertaking clash detection and producing coordination reports.

BIM analytics
BIM models can sometimes appear opaque to management unfamiliar with the software. Parametric Monkey uses digital design tools to mine data and visualise the results to gain a clear insight into the health, quality and performance of the model before they get out of control.
BIM management
BIM can be a complicated process, and it is essential you have a robust management plan. Parametric Monkey can assist in developing your BIM Execution Plan (BEP) to ensure more effective coordination, communication and collaboration. We work with the entire project team to clarify roles and responsibilities, standards to be applied, and procedures to be followed.
Virtual Design & Construction
BIM is useful in describing WHAT to build, but to understand HOW to build it, we need to use Virtual Design and Construction (VDC). VDC integrates site logistics and phasing to create a more comprehensive picture of what needs to be done. By integrating our BIM and computational design expertise, Parametric Monkey can automate your 4D sequencing animations. These animations bring various stakeholders together, enabling them to discuss the project using a common language.
