SERVICE OVERVIEW
What Is Architectural and Structural BIM?
Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a collaborative digital process that creates intelligent, data-rich 3D models of buildings and structures. Unlike traditional CAD drafting, BIM connects geometry with real project data: materials, quantities, specifications, and construction sequences.
Architectural BIM focuses on the building's spatial design, enclosure systems, facade components, and documentation packages. Structural BIM captures the load-bearing framework, steel connections, reinforcement layouts, and fabrication-level details that contractors build from.
Why Do AEC and Industrial Projects Need BIM?
• Architectural and structural clashes are detected and resolved in the model before construction begins
• Shop drawings generated from BIM models are accurate because they come directly from the coordinated 3D geometry
• Quantity takeoffs, schedules, and specifications are embedded in the model and update automatically
• Contractors get construction-ready packages they can trust, which means fewer RFIs and faster builds
• Building owners get an accurate as-built record that supports facility management for the life of the asset

Why Choose Monarch Innovation for Architectural & Structural BIM Services
There is no shortage of BIM outsourcing firms. What separates Monarch Innovation is the depth of engineering knowledge behind every model we build.
Engineering-Driven BIM
Our BIM team includes structural engineers, architects, and detailers. Models are not just geometrically accurate. They are engineered to be buildable.
LOD
Full LOD Range
We work from LOD 100 concept models through LOD 500 as-built models. Your project gets the right level of detail at every stage.
ISO
ISO 9001 Certified Delivery
Every model and drawing set goes through a formal check and approval process before it reaches your team. No exceptions.
COBie
COBie and ISO 19650 Ready
We structure BIM deliverables to meet COBie data requirements and ISO 19650 information delivery standards for owner operators and government projects.
IP
Full IP Ownership
All models, drawings, and project data we create belong to you from the day they are issued. No licensing holds. No data retention.
NDA
NDA from Day One
Every engagement begins with a signed NDA. Your project data stays confidential from the first file transfer to the last deliverable.
360
Construction Phase Support
We stay involved after drawings are issued. Our team responds to site RFIs, updates models for design changes, and delivers final as-built packages.
ENGAGEMENT PROCESS
How Our Architectural and Structural BIM Process Works
Our engagement model is designed to minimize back-and-forth and get your project to construction-ready status as efficiently as possible.

Drawing Issue and Support
You share drawings, point cloud data, existing models, specifications, and applicable BIM standards. We review the information, define the project scope, and prepare a detailed delivery plan.
We send a detailed scope of work, LOD specification, deliverable schedule, and fixed-price cost estimate. No ambiguity before we start.
We prepare a project-specific BIM Execution Plan covering software, file naming, coordinate reference, model breakdown, and interface requirements with other disciplines.
Our team builds the architectural or structural model in Revit, Tekla, or your specified platform. Progress models are issued at agreed milestones for your review.
We run formal clash detection and coordinate the model with all relevant disciplines. Every clash is documented, resolved, and signed off before drawings are issued.
Approved drawing packages are issued with complete revision history. We remain available for RFI responses, design change updates, and as-built model delivery through project completion.

BUSINESS BENEFITS
Business Benefits of Professional Architectural and Structural BIM
Investing in proper BIM services pays back across every stage of your project. Here is what clients consistently report after working with Monarch Innovation.
Fewer Construction Clashes
Clash detection in the BIM model eliminates the most common and expensive source of site rework. Most projects see a 60 to 80 percent reduction in coordination-related RFIs.
Faster Project Delivery
Construction teams that receive coordinated, clash-free drawing packages build faster. Less time waiting for clarifications means more time building.
Accurate Fabrication Packages
Structural steel, rebar, and precast drawings generated from BIM models are dimensionally accurate because they come directly from the 3D geometry. Fabrication errors drop significantly.
Lower Total Project Cost
Reduced rework, optimized material quantities, and fewer design change orders add up to measurable savings in both CAPEX and construction schedule contingency.
Regulatory Approval Support
BIM deliverables structured to ISO 19650 and COBie standards streamline the permit and authority approval process, especially on government and infrastructure projects.
Facility Management Ready
LOD 500 as-built models include the data building owners need for ongoing facility management, maintenance scheduling, and future renovation planning.
