BIM Project Outputs

BIM Deliverables for California Project Teams

Deliverables are defined around the agreed BIM scope, project stage, discipline requirements, model-development level and coordination workflow rather than a fixed one-size-fits-all package.

01

Native Revit Models

Editable architectural, structural or MEP Revit models developed to the agreed project scope and model requirements.

02

Federated Coordination Models

Combined discipline models prepared for multidisciplinary review and coordination workflows.

03

Clash Reports

Clash results organized for review so project teams can identify and track coordination issues between disciplines.

04

Coordination Issue Logs

Structured issue information to support coordination meetings, model revisions and responsibility tracking.

05

Model Exports

Complex Project Support

BIM Support for Large and Multidiscipline California Projects

Large construction programs often involve multiple disciplines, repeated coordination cycles and BIM deliverables that change as design information develops. Our BIM teams support defined modeling and coordination workloads across these project stages.

Architectural, structural and MEP models can be developed and updated around agreed BIM standards, model breakdowns, coordination requirements, LOD expectations and delivery milestones.

  • Large federated models
  • Repeated coordination cycles
  • Model revision support
  • Agreed LOD requirements

BIM Information Workflow

What You Send and What You Receive

California project teams can share available design information, BIM standards and coordination requirements. The final model package is then structured around the confirmed scope, project stage and required file formats.

Project Inputs

What You Can Send

BIM production can begin from the available project information and agreed modeling requirements.

  • Architectural, structural and MEP drawings
  • Existing Revit or discipline models
  • DWG and PDF drawing sets
  • Point-cloud or scan information
  • BIM Execution Plan or model standards
  • Coordination comments and issue logs
BIM Deliverables

What You Can Receive

Outputs are confirmed according to project responsibilities, coordination needs and agreed delivery requirements.

  • Native Revit discipline models
  • Federated coordination models
  • Clash reports and issue information
  • Updated model and drawing packages
  • IFC, NWC, NWD and PDF outputs
  • Agreed LOD and model-development deliverables
File formats, model segmentation, coordinates, naming conventions, LOD requirements and revision procedures should be agreed before production begins so the BIM deliverables match the intended downstream use.

Model Development

LOD Requirements for California BIM Projects

BIM models can be developed to different levels of detail depending on the project stage, model purpose, coordination requirements and contractual BIM deliverables. The required LOD should be confirmed before modeling begins.

LOD 300

Defined Model Geometry

Model elements are developed with defined size, shape, quantity and location suitable for design development and general multidisciplinary review.

Common use: design development, quantity information and general coordination.
LOD 350

Coordination Interfaces

Model elements include interfaces with adjacent building systems so teams can evaluate clearances, connections and coordination conditions more effectively.

Common use: multidisciplinary BIM coordination and clash review.
LOD 400

Fabrication-Level Information

Model development can include fabrication, assembly or installation information where this level of detail forms part of the agreed project scope.

Common use: fabrication and installation-focused workflows.
LOD 500

Record Model Information

Record-model information reflects verified project conditions where as-built or handover requirements form part of the agreed BIM deliverable.

Common use: record documentation and project handover.
LOD 300 and LOD 350 are not interchangeable.

LOD 350 adds coordination interfaces and relationships with adjacent systems. This can be important when BIM models are being used to review MEP clearances, structural interfaces and installation constraints.

LOD terminology should always be interpreted together with the project BIM Execution Plan, responsibility matrix, model-element requirements and contractual deliverable definitions.

BIM QA Process

BIM Quality and Coordination Workflow

BIM production follows a structured review process from source-information checks through model development, multidisciplinary coordination, QA review and final deliverable preparation.

01

Scope & Input Review

Review drawings, models, BIM standards, coordinates, discipline responsibilities, LOD requirements and expected outputs before production begins.

02

Model Development

Develop or update discipline models using the agreed project information, modeling standards and required model-development level.

03

Model Coordination

Combine relevant models for multidisciplinary review, identify coordination issues and organize clashes for project-team assessment.

04

QA Review

Check model structure, coordinates, naming, geometry, required information and agreed coordination updates before issuing deliverables.

05

Deliver & Revise

Prepare the agreed Revit, IFC, NWC, NWD, PDF or other outputs and incorporate approved revisions through subsequent coordination cycles.

Model coordinates checked
Naming standards reviewed
Discipline interfaces checked
Deliverable formats confirmed

Coordination responsibilities and issue-resolution authority remain project-specific. BIM teams can identify, document and update coordination issues according to the agreed workflow and approved project decisions.

NWC

Navisworks Manage

Supports federated model review, multidisciplinary coordination, clash detection and coordination issue workflows.

ACC

Autodesk Construction Cloud
