Training Objectives

This training aims to provide participants with an understanding of BIM-based quantity take-off and cost estimation. It will cover theoretical concepts such as Value Engineering, Risk Management, Earned Value Management (EVM), and Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) while demonstrating 5D quantity take-off and cost estimation using Revit.

Content of the Course

  • Introduction to BIM for Quantity Take-off and Cost Estimation – Importance, industry applications, and benefits.
  • Value Engineering and BIM
  • Risk Management and BIM
  • Earned Value Management (EVM) and BIM
  • Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) and BIM
  • 5D Quantity Take-off and Cost Estimation using Revit – Hands-on demonstration of Revit’s QTO and estimation tools.

Software/ Tools Covered

  • Autodesk Revit
  • OpenBuildings Designer
  • Quantity take off tools

Target Audience & Prerequisites

This training is designed for professionals and students in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry, including Quantity Surveyors, Estimators, and Cost Engineers, as well as BIM Managers, Coordinators, and Project Managers. It is also beneficial for construction professionals seeking to enhance their skills and for AEC students looking to build a strong foundation in BIM practices.

Prerequisites:

  • Basic understanding of construction cost estimation
  • Familiarity with BIM concepts and Revit (preferred but not mandatory)

Training Schedule

The course is available in flexible morning and evening sessions. Specific times will be communicated to you via call or email. The training spans 10 hours/10 days.

Key Learning Outcomes

By the end of the training, participants will:

  • Understand the role of BIM in cost estimation and quantity take-off.
  • Learn Value Engineering principles and risk management strategies using BIM.
  • Apply EVM and IPD concepts to BIM workflows.
  • Gain hands-on experience with quantity take-off tools.
  • Improve cost predictability and financial planning using 5D BIM.

Certification

Participants will receive a completion certificate after successfully completing the course and project work.
