Technical

Building Information Modelling of a project provides Clients with data that is integrated and usable. Data is made available for sharing in a BIM format that can then be efficiently utilised to help Clients make informed decisions regarding their future activities. The importance of BIM is recognized by the Government’s new Construction Strategy, announced in May 2011, setting out the intention to require collaborative 3D BIM, on all Government funded projects by 2016.

WML are ideally placed to lead BIM schemes due to our early adoption of this cultural shift in building design and detailing. All our CAD Technicians now routinely work in Revit.

WML is a well integrated team of specialist Engineers and Technicians working through all sectors of the construction industry. The individuals within the company all work closely together with an ethos that ensures the continuous exchange of expertise and experience.

We recognise the importance of formal planning and hold regular internal resource meetings. At these meetings, Project Engineers input current resourcing needs for the Management Team to review alongside requirements for new incoming projects.

This process ensures appropriate resources are allocated to individual projects as well as forward planning for future staffing requirements.

WML ethos is to deliver a professional service throughout every project and this is achieved through allocating appropriate resources, monitoring progress throughout, and efficiently managing the process of design.
