Coordination Tip of the Week ๐จ
Always make sure you're coordinating with the latest models.
There's nothing worse than spending days coordinating a project, only to discover that the latest design team model wasn't loaded.
That's why it's vital to download and load the latest architectural, structural and MEP models as soon as updates are issued.
Regularly checking that everyone is working with the most up-to-date information helps avoid wasted effort and keeps the coordination process on track.
This makes it easier to:
๐ Coordinate using the latest design information
๐ Avoid reviewing issues that have already been resolved
๐ Reduce rework caused by outdated models
๐ Keep the entire project team aligned.
Good coordination starts with good model management. A simple habit of regularly updating your federated model can save hours of unnecessary work and help prevent costly issues later in the project.
After all, it's far better to catch coordination issues in the model than discover them on site.
