What’s BIM?
BIM (Building Information Modelling) is the digitization of the construction sector, utilizing three-dimensional digital models to design, construct and manage built assets. BIM models are designed with intelligent data that allows for highly coordinated documentation and model geometry, resulting in high-quality and cost-effective construction projects. Compared to the traditional 2D design and drawing, BIM is the new paradigm that fosters new cooperation, innovation and building lifecycle savings.
At the BLEA, our mission is to empower the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry in East Africa and beyond by providing cutting-edge technology and high-quality construction products.
