BIM, Coordination & Preconstruction Support for Defense and Security Facilities
Defense and security projects can combine complex building systems, strict project requirements and multidisciplinary construction packages. Optimar Precon organizes the supplied drawings, models, specifications, surveys and project information into structured BIM, CAD, quantity, estimating and coordination deliverables.
Bring Complex Building Systems Into One Structured Coordination Environment
Defense facilities can contain dense MEP services, structural interfaces, equipment areas, utility spaces and highly coordinated technical zones.
Our BIM teams develop and coordinate the assigned project information within the agreed modeling standards, project scope and required level of development.

Review routes, openings and structural relationships within the assigned scope.
Vertical Distribution
Coordinate risers, shafts and vertical service zones through the building.
Coordinate New Work With Existing Building Conditions
Renovation and retrofit packages can require proposed systems and construction to interface with existing structures, spaces and building services. Our work follows the supplied project and existing-condition information.
Structure Quantities Around Defined Defense Construction Packages
Our estimating teams work from the current drawings, specifications and pricing information provided for the assigned package, with quantities organized around the defined construction scope.
Measure defined walls, finishes, ceilings, openings and architectural work.
Measure applicable concrete, steel and structural construction scope.
Measure defined mechanical, electrical and plumbing quantities.
Structure cost information around agreed quantities, scope and pricing basis.
Convert Project Information Into Structured Preconstruction Deliverables
Required outputs can vary by discipline and project stage. We prepare agreed models, drawings, quantities and coordination information from the supplied project sources.
Base Production on Current Approved Project Information
The scope, level of detail and required deliverables should be established around the information available for the assigned defense or security facility package.
Provide current architectural, structural and applicable MEP information.
Provide applicable point clouds, surveys or existing-condition data.
Define applicable specifications, BIM standards and package requirements.
Define required model, drawing, quantity and documentation formats.
Optimar Precon provides modeling, coordination, drafting, estimating, takeoff and documentation support from the information supplied for the defined project scope. Engineering design authority, security criteria, project approvals, field verification and professional certification remain with the responsible project team and authorized parties.

Share the BIM, CAD, coordination, estimating, takeoff, shop drawing or documentation scope with our team.
How Defense Project Information Moves Through the Preconstruction Workflow
Defense and security projects can involve drawings, discipline models, specifications, surveys, record information and ongoing design revisions. Our workflow organizes the assigned information before production, coordination, review and final delivery.
Review Project Information
Identify the current drawings, models, specifications, surveys and assigned project files.
Define the Production Basis
Confirm the required area, discipline, model detail, scope and output requirements.
Develop the Package
Produce the assigned BIM, CAD, quantity or documentation information.
Coordinate Disciplines
Review applicable architectural, structural and MEP interfaces within the defined scope.
Review & Issue
Check scope, revisions, coordination status and required outputs before delivery.
Build the Package Around the Information Approved for the Assigned Scope
The production team should work from the current project information and agreed requirements for each discipline, area and deliverable.
- Current drawing issue
- Available discipline models
- Applicable specifications
- Survey / existing-condition information
- Approved project revisions
- Required output standards
Organize Multiple Project Sources Into One Defined Production Basis
A project package may combine current design files, existing-condition information and supporting project documentation. The assigned deliverables should remain tied to the information supplied for production.
Design Drawings
Use current architectural, structural and building-services drawings for the assigned scope.
Discipline Models
Use supplied architectural, structural or MEP models as applicable.
Survey / Scan Information
Reference supplied survey, point-cloud or existing-condition information where required.
Project Requirements
Use applicable specifications, BIM requirements and approved project instructions.
Keep Production Aligned With the Current Project Issue
Models, drawings and project instructions can change during preconstruction. The assigned production package should clearly reflect the information status used for each issue.
Develop the assigned work from the current information approved for production.
Review updated information and identify affected models, drawings and quantities.
Identify areas where available information does not support the requested deliverable.
Common Coordination Checks Across Defense Facility Packages
Once the applicable discipline information is brought together, project teams can review physical conflicts, spatial limitations and interfaces between major building systems.
Keep Existing Conditions and Proposed Construction Clearly Organized
Renovation and retrofit projects can combine existing information with multiple proposed disciplines. A structured model or drawing package helps teams distinguish the status of each element during coordination.
Define Deliverable Requirements Before Detailed Production Starts
The appropriate level of model, drawing and quantity detail depends on the purpose of the assigned package. Defining these requirements early helps keep production aligned with the intended deliverable.
Define the applicable building, level, zone or discipline.
Agree the information and model detail required for the package.
Confirm which drawings, models and supporting information apply.
Confirm the required model, drawing, report or quantity formats.
Software Used Across Defense Preconstruction Workflows
Our teams use modeling, coordination, drafting, review and estimating tools according to the requirements of each assigned project package.
Review Defense Project Deliverables Before Issue
The assigned package goes through structured checks for scope, project information, model organization, coordination, revisions and required outputs before delivery.
Optimar Precon develops models, drawings, coordination information and related deliverables from the project information supplied for the assigned package. Where information is incomplete, conflicting or unavailable, the production basis and required project decisions remain subject to direction from the responsible project team.
