The First Tenet of Green BIM

The first fundamental of an iterative Green BIM process is the necessity for integrated 3D design. Alternative workflows will ultimately lead to a clumsy process of redrawing, working backwards, and constantly fighting deadlines with an inefficient use of resources. To be very clear about what I'm saying, a design or changes to a design can begin with a sketch, but every move thereafter must first be made first to the BIM model...the model must always be the most up-to-date file in the project folder.

When a designer insists upon working in a non-BIM system it is imperative that any presentation drawings must first go through the BIM application before the date of submission. If the project team has to rely on a process of continually revising the analysis model post deadline, no progress can be made and the iterative analysis will disappear from the process.
