BIM & Preconstruction Support for Institutional and Educational Facilities
Optimar Precon supports defined institutional and educational construction packages with BIM, multidisciplinary coordination, CAD, estimating, quantity takeoffs and technical production support.
Coordinate Educational Buildings Before Construction
Schools, colleges and university facilities can combine classrooms, laboratories, libraries, administrative areas and specialist spaces within the same project. Our teams develop and coordinate the assigned BIM information around the current project scope.
Preconstruction Support for Defined Institutional Packages
Assign individual services or combine multiple production disciplines around the educational project package.
Institutional BIM Services
Develop BIM models for defined institutional and educational project packages.
MEP BIM Coordination
Coordinate mechanical, electrical and plumbing information across shared spaces.
CAD Drafting
Prepare plans, sections, elevations and project details.
Construction Estimating
Support defined institutional tender and construction estimating packages.
Quantity Takeoffs
Measure architectural, structural and applicable MEP quantities.
Scan to BIM
Develop existing-condition BIM geometry from supplied point-cloud information.
Support Different Spaces Across the Institutional Building
Institutional BIM can bring different learning, support and specialist areas into one coordinated project environment.
Coordinate layouts with structure and building services.
Coordinate defined equipment and building-service interfaces.
Support BIM and documentation for learning and library spaces.
Support coordinated production for institutional support spaces.
Coordinate applicable architectural, structural and MEP packages.
Support shared-use, circulation and gathering spaces.
Support New Work Within Existing Educational Facilities
For renovations and campus expansions, our teams can use available surveys, scans, drawings and existing-condition models to support coordination of the assigned proposed work.

A Structured Workflow for Institutional BIM & Preconstruction
Institutional projects can involve multiple disciplines, building areas and revision stages. Our workflow keeps the assigned educational project package connected to the current information from initial review through final delivery.
Review Inputs
Review current drawings, models, specifications and project requirements.
Define the Scope
Confirm the building, area, disciplines and required outputs.
Develop the Package
Produce the assigned BIM, CAD or documentation package.
Coordinate
Review architectural, structural and MEP interfaces together.
Review & Deliver
Check revisions, coordination status and final outputs.
Keep Each Educational Package Aligned With Current Project Information
Schools, universities and campus projects can move through several design and coordination revisions. Production remains connected to the current package issued for the assigned scope.
- Current drawings
- Current BIM models
- Applicable specifications
- Latest revisions
- Defined project area
- Required deliverables
Common Coordination Checks in Institutional Projects
Bringing architectural, structural and MEP information together helps project teams review physical interfaces across educational spaces.
Review the Institutional Package Before Issue
Assigned project packages go through production checks for scope, model organization, coordination, revisions and required outputs.
