Episode 51 - Services Design & BIM: Can it be fixed? feat. Gary Cowan
Update: 2025-05-15
Description
Services Design and BIM... there's a lot of potential there, that's for sure. But at the moment MEP design still lags in quality. Why is that? And how can it be changed for the better?
We've invited Gary Cowan, Head of Digital Construction at Kane Group. He's going to take us through the journey of Services Design and BIM, and how we can make our MEP-processes much more seamless and efficient on projects now, and in the future.
What you'll learn from today's episode of Inventing Construction:
- Why MEP design still lags in quality
- Why BIM needs to be installable, not just drawable
- Drawing for access vs. contract only
- How QSs can help validate digital design
- Why model quality is driving cross-discipline accountability
- Where you can learn Building Services Coordination
