Ibens nv is a contractor that both designs and builds. They know better than anyone that during the design process many investment choices must be made by the client. In order to provide a better insight into this, they want to expand their BIM (Building Information Model).
Ibens models all its projects completely in a BIM (Building Information Model), right from the quotation phase. The 3D model is cleverly constructed and calculates the price of the project. To make that price even more accurate, the contractor wants to add additional information to the components in the model: information about the cost of long-term maintenance and about the building's consumption.
By enriching his BIM in this way, the contractor will be able to work more towards the Life Cycle Cost of a building rather than simply towards the investment amount for the new building. Already in the design phase, the Life Cycle Cost can be automatically generated and compared, depending on the design choices.
This will allow Ibens to optimise its designs with a view to the future.
