Tekla is to introduce Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology into public sector projects, part of Abu Dhabi Plan 2030, in order to cut construction costs.
The news comes after the BIM solutions firm teamed up with UAE-based IT solutions provider ACRID International, part of project management and consulting firm CAP Group, to help implement the technology into new projects.
“We believe that the government, and its projects, is a key factor in setting an example to other players in the market, especially in a climate where the waste in construction can’t be afforded,” said Tekla Middle East managing director Tahir Sharif.
Tekla’s technology includes packages on project control system management, cost management, value engineering, risk management and construction supervision. Design and build projects can be done more efficiently with effective control.
“BIM can effectively cut costs and manage waste that otherwise could jeopardise the existence of a project, even without potential time delays and budget overruns,” added Shaif.
ACRID plans to introduce BIM technology to a raft of government development projects including infrastructure, housing, school and hospital builds, which are part of the 2030 plan.
“Abu Dhabi continues to launch major construction projects, encouraging the use of advanced technologies, such as BIM, which ensure timely completion and immense saving through their solutions, moreover it provide very minute details of structure which no other system provides as on this date,” said ACRID director Mian Mohammad Aslam.
