Lunchtime CPD Series: BIM

An excellent session yesterday on BIM and information management by DCT.

Amongst other things, we covered the History of BIM in Ireland, a BIM Project Overview and documents on a BIM Project.

Thanks to Joseph Mady for a very informative presentation, part of our lunchtime CPD series.

Main Contractor Appointed for BioConnect Innovation Centre

Cogent are delighted to announce the appointment of Midland Construction as main contractor for the new BioConnect Innovation Centre in Monaghan, on behalf of our client Bioconnect Innovation Centre CLG.

This represents a critical milestone in the delivery of a new state of the art agfood research and innovation facility in Monaghan.

The project has been designed to BIM Level 2 standard, with federated models used to coordinate the tender stage design information. This ensures that coordinating the interfaces of the Architectural, Structural, Mechanical and Electrical installations is substantially resolved before the project is constructed, mitigating any potential issues and cost overruns for our client.

We are providing Project Management services and we look forward to delivering the finished building alongside the wider team.
