Here are a few resources we provided...
- A recently published Green BIM report from McGraw Hill Construction includes new market research data, insights from industry leaders, project case studies demonstrating ways BIM has been used on green projects and contributed toward better, more sustainable buildings, and special coverage of two key areas BIM is providing value: performance, daylighting and lean construction.

- Autodesk BIM Deployment Plan
The Autodesk BIM Deployment Plan offers tools and guidance for building industry professionals interested in implementing Building Information Modeling (BIM). Tools offered in this resource provide a practical framework for AEC stakeholders, and can be used by individual organizations on specific projects. The BIM Deployment Plan includes:
· BIM support materials for owners, architects, engineers, and contractors
· Templates to streamline multi-discipline communications
· Recommendations for roles and responsibilities
· Best business process examples
· Software suggestions for an effective BIM environment
(Don’t miss the zip file at the bottom of the page! It has the Plan tools.)
Our client was hoping to find an animation that showed "with and without" BIM, but BIM encompasses the process and workflow, not just a specific product or deliverable. The firm does heating/ducting, telecom and other services, so we provided the following links:
