Practice and business packs

These packs help you start, staff and price BIM work. They give you structure for decisions you make yourself.

Three packs, three steps each. Startup Roadmap (PDF, MD, CSV): pick one problem and measure a baseline, run a small pilot with the Pilot Plan CSV, adopt, adjust or stop using the evidence. Onboarding Playbook (PDF, MD, CSV): interview stakeholders with the guide CSV, inventory standards and fix urgent gaps, agree a roadmap at the 90-day review. Fee and Proposal Estimator (XLSX, PDF): set rates and factors and include tasks, check hours and cost by role and phase, copy scope language into your proposal. Example rates and rows are synthetic; replace them before quoting.
One small, evidence-led step at a time.

BIM Practice Startup Roadmap

Files: guide PDF and MD, Pilot-Plan.csv, Handoff-Check.csv, Lookup-Pilot-Worked-Example.csv

  1. Choose one practice problem and record a baseline.
  2. Plan a short pilot in Pilot-Plan.csv. The worked example shows a finished plan.
  3. Adopt, adjust or stop based on the evidence. Use Handoff-Check.csv before handing the change to the wider team.

BIM Manager Onboarding Playbook

Files: playbook PDF and MD, First-90-Days-Plan.csv, Stakeholder-Interview-Guide.csv, Standards-Inventory.csv

  1. Listen: interview each stakeholder role with the interview guide.
  2. Stabilize: record every BIM asset in the standards inventory and fix urgent gaps.
  3. Plan: track tasks in the 90-day plan, then agree a roadmap at the 90-day review.

BIM Fee and Proposal Estimator

Files: BIM-Fee-Estimator.xlsx, estimator guide PDF

  1. Replace the example roles and rates in Rates. Set complexity and contingency in Factors.
  2. In Estimate, switch tasks on or off. Check hours and cost by role and phase in Summary.
  3. Copy the matching inclusions, exclusions and assumptions from Scope Language into your proposal.

The estimate is a starting point. Check it against your own rates, contracts and experience before quoting.
