Building Information Modelling (BIM) is an essential part of the building process.
BIM brings together information of every component of a building into a single 3D environment, compliant with BIM level 2 and expanded into 4D with integrated scheduling and cost analysis. Using a variety of CAD packages, large companies and governments have eagerly embraced the technology as a means of delivering projects more cost efficiently and productively than ever before and are now insisting upon having BIM Models associated with their projects.
Building Information Modelling (BIM) level 2 has been mandated since April 2016 throughout the UK public sector. There are economic and environmental benefits from BIM during the whole asset cycle from concept through to design, construction and even the life of the asset itself.
BIM consolidates information about every building component into a comprehensive 3D digital model. It’s compliant with BIM Level 2, and can extend into 4D, integrating scheduling and cost analysis for improved project management.
Yes – since April 2016, UK public sector projects require compliance with BIM Level 2, underscoring its importance across government-led developments.
BIM offers several benefits:
ARC leverages advanced laser scanning to capture highly accurate, sub-millimetre precision 3D models. These are particularly valuable for architecture, engineering, and construction projects requiring precise spatial representations.
The BIM & laser scanning services deliver highly accurate 3D models, with sub-millimetre precision, ensuring that even the smallest details are captured and suitable for technical planning.
Yes – ARC offers BIM and laser scanning services nationwide, ensuring timely, high-quality delivery to clients in cities such as London, Manchester, Edinburgh, and beyond.
Organizations involved in design, renovation, or construction – especially public-sector bodies – benefit significantly. BIM ensures better project coordination, cost efficiency, compliance, and lifecycle management.
The practice reduces dependence on paper and physical storage. Digital, accurate, and organized information enhances productivity throughout the asset lifecycle – from design to demolition.
As a trusted provider, ARC brings a combination of technical expertise, precision scanning, compliance with industry standards, and national coverage – empowering clients with reliable, accurate, and future-ready building data.
