Aidea Technologies took the opportunity to expand the application of digital tools, develop an execution strategy from guidelines and standards set-up, through project planning, object and component definition, GDL development, conducting VDC workshops, to developing audit automation, 2D extraction, bill of quantities generation, construction simulation, fabrication, and as-built generation. Both firms collaborated successfully on 25 projects within a period of 3 years to test and improve the workflow, and have since reaped the many benefits of VDC.
