Outsourcing MEP BIM Services: Benefits, Challenges & Trends
Quick summary: Outsourcing MEP BIM services presents considerable cost
advantages but also brings its share of challenges. This blog delves into the
financial benefits, common pitfalls, and emerging trends within the
outsourcing landscape.
In the modern construction landscape, where efficiency and accuracy are
paramount, Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing (MEP) Building Information
Modeling (BIM) services have emerged as essential components.
These services are fundamental to architects, construction managers, and
BIM specialists seeking to enhance efficiency and project performance.
However, handling and implementing MEP BIM services in-house can be
cumbersome and expensive.
This is the idea of outsourcing, which provides a very effective tool for overall
effective cost control as well as the improvement of the project delivery.
Understanding MEP BIM Services
However, to truly understand the benefits of outsourcing, one must first have a
clear, general understanding of MEP BIM services. MEP can be defined as the
process of designing and incorporating construction projects with
mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems.
In turn, MEP Building Information Modeling (BIM) is the technology that reflects
a facility’s physical and functional aspects. When integrated collectively,
the MEP BIM services provide the complete solution for designing, modeling,
and managing the assisting systems in buildings.
Below are some of the benefits that are accorded by the integration of BIM
technology in MEP projects. Due to the promotion of the creation of highly
accurate digital models, BIM offers an improved means of visualizing various
systems. This, in turn, enhances the alignment of work tasks and different
stakeholders involved, thus lowering the chances of having to redo a task.
Moreover, BIM offers improved collaboration, and in this aspect, the whole
project’s information can be shared and communicated throughout the
process.
In addition, MEP BIM services result in more efficiency and cost reduction
measures. As BIM helps identify the areas of clash and optimize the designs
before the construction of buildings and structures, the number of changes
and delays are minimized.
Some benefits can be gained from the simulation, such as decision making is
facilitated, and therefore, the results are of better quality.
Challenges in In-House MEP BIM Implementation
Unfortunately, adopting MEP BIM services is not without difficulties when
implemented internally. The major challenge that architects, construction
managers, and BIM specialists encounter is dealing with extensive projects.
MEP system deliver is complex interrelated systems that demand proper
program coordination skills and talent that might not be available locally or
within the facility.
Another challenge is the significant costs of hiring an internal BIM team to
handle BIM–related tasks. From recruiting and training professional personnel
to purchasing the latest software and sophisticated hardware, the cost may
run high.
In addition, training and acquiring knowledge on the latest BIM technology
and compliance with the industry standards demands regular investment,
which is considered costly in terms of financial and human resources.
Most of these challenges have implications for the time and costs of a project.
On the other hand, it may be a problem due to inexperience or lack of proper
resources to meet the deadlines set or even lack of deadlines, which may
increase the overall expenses.
Besides, the chances of making mistakes and repeating the work process
increase when MEP BIM services are performed in-house without the
necessary skills and resources.
Advantages of Outsourcing MEP BIM Services
The problem of implementing MEP BIM services can be effectively solved with
the help of outsourcing services. Outsourcing is one of the benefits that has
attracted many organizations due to money saving. With the help of MEP BIM
outsourcing, an organization will be free from the initial investment costs of
expanding its staff and purchasing costly software and tools.
They can get access to all the resources and professionals of the outsourcing
provider, being able to buy just the necessary services.
Another benefit may include cost savings. Another benefit that is accorded by
outsourcing MEP BIM services includes acquiring skilled professionals and
probably the latest technology on BIM. Outsourcing partners have
experienced professionals on their teams who understand MEP design and
coordination all too well.
This keeps them up-to-date with the current trends and developments within
the field, making the projects we implement very efficient and effective.
That makes it possible to enhance the quality, minimize mistakes, and
increase the speed of project completion.
Outsourcing has also been emphasized by case studies and other people’s
accounts. MEP BIM services outsourcing specifications have yielded positive
results to many an organization’s project schedules and expenses.
For instance, a large construction company could slash its project cost by 20
per cent and the time taken to construct a project by thirty per cent after
outsourcing the project to a credible outsourcing agency. These success
stories also explain organizations’ potential MEP BIM services.
Choosing the Right MEP BIM Service Provider
Outsourcing MEP BIM services is a good idea for any organization of the
competent service provider and is important for the partnership’s success.
Information on assessing potential outsourcing partners is discussed below
under the following criteria.
The first is their experience and previous performance in handling MEP BIM
projects. Check for companies with a record of well-established business
transactions with architects, construction managers and BIM consultants.
Further, looking at the training, experience, and educational background of the
outsourcing provider’s staff will be pertinent. Ensure they have the qualities,
skills, and information to complete your needs for your unique project. Their
technological competence should also be assessed, where they stand
regarding the software and tools used in BIM modeling and coordination.
For the collaboration to be successful, there should be a good understanding
of the communication and expectations at the initial stage. Some changes
are supposed to be communicated to the various stakeholders regularly in
the outsourcing partnership, including Progress Reports.
In the same process, identify the goals and objectives needed to guide the
project and the timelines to check the completion rates.
