Buyout, Scoping, and Cost Recovery Recommendations for BIM360
Buyout, Scoping, and Cost Recovery Recommendations for BIM360
Below are some
recommendations and considerations for buyout, scoping and cost recovery:
1. Try to obtain buy-in from the
Client/Architect, or better yet, get the client to incorporate the requirement
for the Architect/Consultants to use BIM 360 for field observation reports,
Architectural Punchlist, etc.
2. Consider incorporating BIM 360 Glue language
(replacing Navisworks) into your project-specific scoping documents, such as
Attachment M, etc.
3. Consider incorporating the following language
in Section 10 of Attachment:
Subcontractor is
responsible for maintaining any assigned issues and tasks, and publishing BIM
data to support coordination within Swinerton Builders’ Autodesk BIM 360
platform (or similar). Subcontractor will be responsible for all web or
mobile device-based input required to bring issues and tasks to closure.
4. Consider incorporating the following language
in Standard Scope C:
Autodesk BIM 360 Glue
and Field are web and mobile-based applications used to manage BIM
Coordination, Clash Avoidance, Quality Control, Safety, Commissioning, and
Punchlist. Swinerton Builders’ use of these collaboration tools aims to
simplify and streamline these processes by eliminating duplication of data
entry and file management while further empowering all field personnel with the
information they need while in the field. Please refer to Attachment M
and Attachment G for additional requirements related to the use of the BIM 360
platform. Subcontractors shall include $X,XXX (adjust this rate for what
makes sense on your project) for usage of the Autodesk BIM 360 platform (or
similar).
5. Contact your local
operating group’s purchaser of mobile phones in order to purchase iPads.
