BIM & Preconstruction Support for Mining Infrastructure
Optimar Precon supports defined mining and natural-resource project packages with BIM, multidisciplinary coordination, CAD drafting, P&ID documentation, estimating, quantity takeoffs and technical production support.
Coordinate Processing, Material-Handling & Building Systems Before Construction
Mining facilities can combine processing equipment, conveyors, pipework, structural steel, electrical services and supporting building systems within one technical project environment. Our teams develop and coordinate the assigned information from the current project sources.
Preconstruction Support for Defined Mining Project Packages
Assign one technical production service or combine several disciplines around the defined mining infrastructure scope.
Mining BIM Services
Develop BIM information for defined mining, processing and infrastructure packages.
Plant BIM Coordination
Coordinate supplied equipment, structure, piping and supporting building systems.
P&ID Documentation
Prepare or update P&ID drawings from supplied project information.
GA & Equipment Drawings
Prepare general arrangement and equipment-layout drawings for defined packages.
Shop Drawing Support
Develop technical and fabrication drawing packages from coordinated information.
Scan to BIM
Develop existing-condition BIM geometry from supplied point-cloud information.
Review Technical Interfaces Across Mining Facility Systems
Multidisciplinary BIM helps teams review equipment, conveyors, pipework, structural systems and supporting services within the assigned mining package.
Coordinate supplied equipment locations with surrounding project systems.
Review conveyor routes, transfers and interfaces within the assigned package.
Coordinate pipe routes with structure, equipment and other services.
Review structural framing against equipment, platforms and service routes.
Review supplied equipment and service layouts within available technical spaces.
Coordinate multiple technical systems within common project areas.
Support New Work Within Existing Mining Facilities
For expansion and retrofit packages, our teams can use available drawings, models, surveys and point-cloud information to support coordination between documented existing conditions and the proposed project scope.

A Structured Workflow for Mining BIM & Preconstruction
Mining and processing packages can involve equipment, conveyors, piping, structural systems and multiple technical disciplines. Our workflow keeps the assigned package aligned with the current project information from review through delivery.
Review Inputs
Review drawings, models, P&IDs, equipment information and project requirements.
Define the Package
Confirm the plant area, discipline, systems and required outputs.
Develop Information
Produce the assigned BIM, CAD, P&ID or drawing package.
Coordinate Interfaces
Review equipment, conveyors, piping, structure and services together.
Review & Deliver
Check revisions, coordination status and final outputs.
Keep Technical Production Connected to the Current Mining Package
Mining and processing projects can move through equipment, layout and discipline revisions. Production remains aligned with the current information supplied for the assigned package.
- Current plant layouts
- Current discipline models
- Equipment information
- Current P&IDs
- Latest project revisions
- Required deliverables
Common Coordination Checks Across Mining Facility Packages
Combining equipment, structural, conveyor, piping and MEP information helps project teams review physical interfaces before the assigned package moves forward.
Review the Mining Project Package Before Issue
The assigned package goes through production checks for scope, model organization, technical coordination, revisions and required outputs.

Preconstruction Capacity for Mining & Natural Resource Project Teams
Add BIM, plant coordination, CAD, estimating and technical documentation resources to defined mining and mineral-processing packages as project workloads change.
Technical Production Support Built Around the Assigned Mining Package
Mining projects can create parallel workloads across BIM, plant coordination, drawings, estimating and revisions. Our teams can support clearly defined production packages around the project information and outputs established by your team.
Package-Level Support
Assign one service, system, discipline or plant area.
Multidiscipline Capability
Connect structural, plant, piping, BIM and CAD production.
Revision Support
Add resources when layouts, equipment or project information change.
Scalable Capacity
Increase technical production resources around workload peaks.
Support Across Different Mining Project Packages
Resources can be aligned with the project stage, plant area or technical package without outsourcing the complete mining project.
New-Build Packages
Support BIM, drawings and coordination for defined new facilities.
Expansion Packages
Support additional plant, equipment and infrastructure packages.
Retrofit Packages
Coordinate proposed modifications against documented existing conditions.
Coordination Packages
Review equipment, conveyors, piping, structure and services.
Tender & Bid Packages
Add estimating and quantity takeoff resources for defined scope.
Documentation Packages
Support P&IDs, GA drawings, CAD and technical documentation.
Production Resources for Mining Project Delivery Teams
Our teams can work alongside the contractors, EPC/EPCM teams, engineers and digital-delivery professionals responsible for the assigned mining package.
General Contractors
Add BIM, estimating and coordination production capacity.
EPC & EPCM Teams
Support defined multidisciplinary production packages.
Specialty Contractors
Add modeling, coordination and drawing resources.
VDC & BIM Teams
Add model-production and coordination support during workload peaks.
Scale Resources Around Mining Project Workloads
Add targeted resources when modeling, coordination, documentation, tendering or revision workloads increase.
Add model production for defined plant areas, systems or disciplines.
Add resources during plant and multidisciplinary coordination cycles.
Add CAD, P&ID, GA and documentation resources.
Add estimating and takeoff resources for defined packages.
Assign Only the Mining Package You Need
Support can be structured around one service, one discipline, one plant area or additional production capacity.
BIM, CAD, estimating or documentation.
Structural, plant, piping or MEP.
One system, plant area or technical package.
Ongoing production support across multiple packages.
Optimar Precon provides BIM, CAD, coordination, estimating and technical documentation production support from the project information supplied for the assigned scope. Mining engineering, geological interpretation, process design, equipment selection, resource estimation, engineering calculations, site verification and professional approvals remain with the responsible project team.
Need additional capacity for a mining project?
Add BIM, CAD, plant coordination, estimating or documentation resources where the project needs them.
