Project Snapshot
Project type: Data Center
Location: Ireland
Client type: Data Center Operator / EPC
Project phase: Design + Construction
BIM services: Full MEP coordination, asset-ready BIM delivery
Disciplines: Architecture, Structure, MEPF
Software: Revit, Navisworks, ACC
The Challenge
- The project involved extreme MEP density typical of mission-critical data center environments.
- Tight spatial constraints within plant-rooms, containment routes, and technical areas.
- High risk of clashes impacting installation sequencing and program certainty.
- Strict client requirements around data accuracy, asset information, and BIM governance.
Our BIM Approach
- We established a data center–specific BIM Execution Plan, aligned with ISO 19650 and client standards.
- Delivered coordinated LOD 350–400 BIM models, with a strong focus on high-risk MEP zones.
- Implemented weekly, KPI-driven coordination cycles to track and control clash resolution.
- Maintained rigorous model governance to ensure consistency, accuracy, and asset readiness.
- Produced installation-ready outputs including spools and containment layouts to support site execution.
Results & Impact
- Resolved 1,500+ coordination clashes prior to installation.
- Improved constructability and installation confidence in congested technical areas.
- Reduced risk of site delays and rework in a mission-critical environment.
- Supported smoother progression from design into construction.
Value Delivered
- Acted as a specialist BIM partner for data center delivery.
- Enabled predictable outcomes through early risk identification and resolution.
- Delivered asset-ready BIM models supporting long-term operations.
- Demonstrated proven capability in handling high-density, high-risk MEP coordination.
