Project Outcomes
This project was aimed at improving BHI’s workflows by integrating architectural, engineering, and project management teams, with a specific focus on developing sustainability metrics within BIM management. The goal was to analyze BHI’s existing processes, such as Autodesk Construction Cloud, Revit, and Insight, identify sustainability metrics embedded in BHI’s Revit models, and propose recommendations for workflows to generate impact reporting analytics for both past and future projects of similar scope. A case study of two projects in Sierra Leone and Tanzania was conducted. During this study, various environmental impact measurement tools, including OneClick LCA, Insight, and Tally, were tested to determine which best align with BHI’s current workflows. The information collected was used to generate appropriate sustainability KPIs and insights, develop model analysis workflows, and outline sustainability and impact reporting frameworks. This project will enable BHI to effectively track and document the environmental impact of its projects.
