In 2014, a Dubai-based design firm made a strategic decision to design and document the a 68-storey in Dubai in VDC and use it as a pilot project for their architects to learn and to appreciate its benefits.

Aidea Technologies, hand in hand with the client’s project team, applied model-based design refinements, conducted real-time coordination with the other trades, and extracted 2D documentation drawings from the model.

It was a successful illustration of how members of a project team could collaborate, coordinate, and contribute to developing a project on a single VDC model from a shared platform.
