    Program Focus

    Develop technical and practical skills to plan, lead and execute infrastructure projects using BIM methodology. You will learn how to apply international and national standards, as well as how to use specialized BIM software applied to infrastructure projects. In addition, you will understand critical aspects such as interoperability, change management and BIM integration in all project phases, along with the evaluation of key performance indicators and ROI.

    * Non-formal education

    Aimed at

    Professionals in the construction sector with an interest in the infrastructure industry who wish to acquire the technical and regulatory knowledge and tools necessary to develop infrastructure projects using the BIM methodology.

    General Objectives

    • To understand the BIM methodology from an integral approach and its applications in the infrastructure sector.

    • Apply specific technological tools and BIM software for infrastructure projects.

    • Know and implement BIM regulations and requirements according to national and international standards.

    • Promote interoperability in BIM projects.

    • Develop competencies for enterprise BIM implementation, improving coordination, communication, and reducing errors and costs.

    Main Lessons Learned

    • You will understand the different dimensions and key concepts of BIM as well as the international (ISO 1950, Building Smart) and national (UPIT, CAMACOL) regulations in force in infrastructure projects.
    • You will develop competencies in the use of specialized BIM tools and software for the industry.
    • You will learn how to create and manage BIM Execution Plans (BEP), perform quantity estimating, monitoring and control of works, and explore the use of virtual reality in project visualization and planning.
    • You will know how to establish interoperable workflows, understand data formats and exchange protocols, develop strategies for organizational change management, assess BIM maturity levels and create effective implementation plans, analyzing success stories for optimal BIM integration in all phases of an infrastructure project.
    • You will create effective BIM implementation plans and be able to measure key performance indicators and return on investment (ROI) in BIM implementations.
