A beginner’s guide to Building Information Modelling (BIM)
Building Information Modelling, commonly known as BIM, has taken off over the past few years as more building designers and construction project managers have come to recognise its benefits.
Introduction
Introduction
Construction management software enables general contractors to exercise better control over projects. By simplifying online communication among all project stakeholders, centralising documents management and automating task management, it improves the efficiency of the project team and helps to minimise project risks and maximise project profitability.
Selecting the right construction management software that is most appropriate for your is an important business decision. You will need to ensure that the selected software meets all your critical business needs. Therefore, you must do your research, obtain all relevant information and analyse how it will assist your construction teams to manage their day-to-day tasks.
Two popular deployment models for software solutions are Software as a Service (SaaS) and On-premise. This section aims to provide a comparison between SaaS and On-premise solutions, highlighting the key differences such as cost, maintenance, security, scalability, and implementation.

A guide to implementing a construction safety management plan
Construction sites are a dangerous place to work. There are always hazards that arise and continually change throughout the construction process. The fact is that safety management is the responsibility of everyone on the site, however, there are many sites that don’t have an adequate Work Health & Safety (WHS) plan in place when something does go wrong.
Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) – A Collaborative Team Approach
As competition intensifies and profit margins come under pressure, construction firms are continuously looking for ways to enhance project productivity and avoid cost and schedule overruns. Numerous approaches have been tried, including technical improvements in construction processes, new building materials and the use of technology to streamline project management.
