BIM Services

Streamline Your Processes with our advanced BIM Services

Building Information Modeling, or BIM, captures and manages high-quality building data. Using reality capture to create a highly detailed information model allows for reduced costs, saves time, and can improve safety at your facility. Our BIM modeling services help optimize planning, design, project management, and maintenance stages of a structure. After defining the scope of your project and assessing your needs, we perform scan to BIM, which then can be used to create a digital twin of your project if so desired.

Our CAD Services Include

Scan to BIM Services

Our Scan to BIM services at PMI use point cloud data to generate accurate and detailed BIM and 2D CAD models of your building or site. These models depict key architectural elements such as walls, slabs, roof plans, facades, landscapes, and pipes. Our services also include clash detection for renovation and reconstruction projects, helping to reduce costs and save time in the construction process. We provide data in four levels of documentation including floor plans (level 1), exterior elevation and roof plans (level 2), sections (level 3), site layout plans (level 4), and Revit family creation.

Architectural BIM Services

PMI provides REVIT BIM Architectural Models using point cloud scans, sketches, and drawings. We create detailed and accurate 3D models of existing conditions for design and planning. Our services are tailored to meet the specific needs of our clients, providing a visual representation of their site digitally. See the building or site in 3D and understand how different design options will look and function in the real world.

BIM Asset Models for Facility Management

BIM for facilities management allows for the creation of a digital replica of a building or structure, providing the potential for real-time monitoring and analysis of the building's performance. This information can be used to improve communication, coordinate and manage the facility, and aid in space management and as-built documentation. BIM helps to improve the overall efficiency and cost-effectiveness of facilities management.

MEP BIM Services

PMI specializes in creating detailed REVIT, AutoCAD, CADDuct, and FABmep models for mechanical, electrical, and piping systems that require minimal modifications and changes in design. PMI can assist in providing the ability to view images and create custom libraries. By following the BEP and the specified LOD, you can save time and resources during the design and construction phases, as well as improve workflows and scheduling by providing a data-rich model with accurate and detailed information.

Structural BIM Services

PMI offers structural modeling services to enhance collaboration and streamline construction processes on structural BIM projects. Our team leverages architectural data and virtual design planning tools to create visual representations of the structure, allowing for improved design decision-making and project visualization while also providing the ability to view images and create customized libraries.

Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) Services

Our Virtual Design & Construction services help manage the entire lifecycle of a construction project. Our expert team utilizes advanced 3D modeling capabilities to create detailed digital models of new, renovated, or restored sites. These models enable visualization of structural designs, construction processes and procedures, project timelines, and budgets, streamlining collaboration and improving overall project management.

Clash Detection Services

Our team uses BIM modeling to identify and resolve design conflicts, known as "clashes," before construction begins by integrating models from various professionals, such as architects and engineers, into the process. This helps to prevent clashes and improve efficiency during the construction process.
