BIM4EEBThe BIMPlanner tool provides a digital environment to share up-to-date information about the plans and site progress operations with all participants of a renovation project. Applying the Location-based management system (LBMS) the tool links data from familiar planning and tracking desktop tools with BIM models to allow more effective management of renovation site operations.
This tool is designed primarily to main contractors and subcontractors responsible for specific site activities. Although, it can also benefit residents and other project stakeholders that can be notified about the site updates and health and safety recommendations throughout the renovation project.
The users are provided with planning master schedules and week schedules templates files to be completed with the renovation schedule agreed with the client. From the master schedule, the activities are broken down into short period tasks by the working location on site defined in the 3D BIM-based interface in the web browser. On a weekly basis, the user updates the on-going tasks statuses, sets new tasks and shares new planning activity through the BIMplanner desktop or mobile application. This tool is available in the BIM4EEB BIMMS.
