Building Information Modelling as a core component of modern project delivery — reducing risk, improving coordination, and providing clients with better outcomes from design through to facility management.
Horn Mark Engineering Services embraces Building Information Modelling (BIM) as a core component of modern engineering and construction project delivery. Through BIM-enabled workflows, we provide clients with improved project coordination, reduced construction risks, enhanced cost control, and optimized asset lifecycle management.
As one of the first engineering firms in Somalia to adopt BIM workflows, HMD is bringing the power of digital engineering to infrastructure projects across the Horn of Africa. Our BIM specialists work alongside the engineering, construction management, and project management teams to create intelligent 3D models that serve as the single source of truth throughout the project lifecycle.
The adoption of BIM allows clients to minimize design conflicts, improve project coordination, reduce construction risks, and make more informed decisions — delivering better outcomes from design through to facility management and long-term asset maintenance.
HMD delivers BIM Level 2 compliant workflows for federated model collaboration, and works towards Level 3 (integrated, cloud-hosted models) on suitable projects. Our BIM outputs comply with ISO 19650 and client-specific BIM Execution Plans (BEP).
Intelligent 3D models for architectural, structural, and MEP disciplines — the foundation of all BIM workflows and coordination.
Linking 3D model elements to project schedules to visualize construction sequences, optimize phasing, and identify programme risks.
Connecting model geometry to cost data for automated quantity extraction, cost planning, and budget tracking throughout design development.
Using BIM models for energy performance analysis, carbon assessment, and sustainability optimization of building and infrastructure designs.
Handover of information-rich models to asset owners for facilities management, maintenance scheduling, and lifecycle cost analysis.
Federated model clash detection between architectural, structural, and MEP disciplines — eliminating design conflicts before construction begins.
Clash detection identifies interdisciplinary clashes before construction, reducing costly on-site changes and rework.
5D BIM enables accurate quantity take-offs and real-time cost tracking as design evolves, improving budget certainty.
A single federated model ensures all project stakeholders — designers, contractors, clients — work from the same information.
4D scheduling and visual sequencing optimise construction programmes and help teams anticipate and avoid delays.
3D visualizations and walkthroughs help clients understand and approve designs before investment is committed.
7D BIM provides facility managers with accurate, structured asset data for effective maintenance and lifecycle planning.
