Frequently asked questions

What is BIM estimating?
BIM estimating is the process of extracting material and labor quantities directly from a Building Information Model to create accurate construction cost estimates. It replaces manual takeoffs and spreadsheets with model-driven data.

What does a BIM consultant do?
A BIM consultant helps construction teams implement BIM and VDC workflows, manage model coordination, train staff, and extract value from models—including quantities, clash detection, and handover data.

How accurate is 3D laser scanning for construction?
Modern laser scanners capture as-built conditions with millimeter-level accuracy, making them ideal for verification, Scan-to-BIM, and quality control (e.g., concrete flatness FF/FL).

What is BIM-IQ?
BIM-IQ is a BIM estimating software platform developed by Black Forge Technology. Contractors enter discipline quantities and rates; BIM-IQ produces professional, LOD-aware PDF estimates in minutes.
