APPROACH 2 Client & AEC Team share work on the model – integrated work-‐sharing over cloud

APPROACH 3 Client creates the model, AEC manages it

The Client

• Provide initial model/information

• Additional Information provided • through markups • Review Project at regular • milestones • Acceptance of Project

• Initial model provided and work-‐share enabled for AEC Team

• Scheduling of work on models and file transfer protocols

• Scheduling of work on models and file transfer protocols

• Project Acceptance and Shared responsibility of quality

• Model Created and work-‐share enabled for AEC.

• Request for extracts info • Request for submittals drawings • Request for clash detections and

Other Analysis

The AE

C Associates

• Work-‐sharing enabled within AEC team

• Team update Model developed using Workshare

• Team uploads model and drawings for review

• Responsible for the overall quality

• Team uses the work-‐share enabled

• Team adheres the files transfer / synchronization protocols

• Reporting the changes using information sheet/calls

• Responsible for the quality delivery

• Request for clash detections and Other Analysis

• And extracts embedded information from the model-‐ schedules, quantities

• Creation of drawings for submittals – adding annotations based on embedded information

a. Clash detection amongst services; b. Pre-‐construction analysis; c. 4D simulation for life cycle analysis
