Model Based Quantification
At Clancy & Theys, we build high performing teams through a variety of systems that help keep us running at peak efficiency. We use advanced Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology to optimize our preconstruction and construction processes. BIM is a collaborative platform that allows all construction project members to collectively build a 3D model. We are no longer limited to the 2D design of blueprints. BIM allows our team to build a project live in a 3D environment before ever breaking ground. The BIM system helps our construction team work more effectively and accurately. Who are the Clancy & Theys team members running the BIM? Leading this charge is our highly skilled Virtual Design & Construction (VDC) team, who bring tremendous value to the project during both the design and construction phases. Their work is a critical conduit between vision and execution and is essential to our quality control and quality assurance. From start to finish our VCV team is involved in the project.
Architecture, Engineering, Design
The Clancy & Theys VDC team are design professionals, with backgrounds in architecture and engineering. Their ability to partner with designers to develop coordination drawings and models facilitates solutions for system integration and solves issues long before they become problems on site.
Model Based Quantification is used to leverage the information and visualization capabilities of a 3D model in our preconstruction workflows.
Increased Speed & Efficiency
Model-based takeoffs increase our speed by 40% and greatly enhance the efficiency of the preconstruction process. We also run “change reports,” a function that tracks all the changes in the main model from one phase to another within seconds, which then enables us to deliver faster. We use models in early phases to perform constructability reviews for our clients. The Clancy & Theys team is always working on site and behind the scenes to run successful construction projects.
