Strategy

Engagement with practice and project leadership is critical to embed effective BIM goals across an organisation. Adoption driven from the top — with clear standards, workflows, and accountability — delivers better projects in less time. We support leaders with the planning, protocols, and audit insight to make that stick.

Strategic work includes planning support, high-level BIM alignment, and office-wide protocol development.

dg:sa

Office & project BIM audit

If BIM is in use but not yet delivering higher quality with fewer resources, an audit of methods, standards, and model health reveals practical improvements at the bottom line.

View service →

Digital assets

We develop and customise digital assets that accelerate BIM adoption — templates, libraries, and setup packages that might take years to build in-house, deployed and delivering returns in a fraction of the time.

Office Revit template

The office Revit template is the key tool for effective project launch — maximising productivity, ensuring consistency, and forming one of the highest-value investments in a BIM programme.

dg:da2

Family creation & libraries

Parametric Revit families and curated content libraries tailored to your standards — built for accuracy, reuse, and faster modelling on live projects.

View service →

Documentation

BIM tools are powerful but demand discipline. We help you harness productivity while meeting internal and external standards — with tailored manuals, plans, and protocols that keep teams consistent and projects profitable.

dg:d1

Office Revit template guide

A how-to guide for your template file — ensuring every team member understands and uses the full range of embedded standards, views, and parameters.

BIM execution plan (BEP)

Prepared to govern how the design team collaborates, exchanges information, and delivers assets through to handover — aligned with UK, ISO, and client requirements.

View service →

dg:d3

BIM protocols & standards

Modern replacements for the CAD manual — naming, modelling rules, issue procedures, and graphic standards your whole team can follow.

View service →

dg:d4

Drawing production

Coordinated 2D drawing sets extracted and annotated from live models — plans, sections, elevations, and details ready for issue and construction.

Project

Live project support is where Dimension Group is often embedded longest — whether a team needs bolstering at launch, coordination through a complex heritage fit-out, or a fresh audit at a key milestone. Founded by architects, we understand project imperatives.

We are most comfortable joining at the start of a BIM journey, but regularly review projects mid-flight to refine workflows and resolve coordination issues.

dg:pl

Project launch

Hands-on workshop-style setup — models, links, sheets, and key processes established so the project starts on a firm footing.

dg:ps

Project support & Revit modelling

Embedded production support from specialists with strong Revit capability and architectural experience — modelling, updates, and issue-ready deliverables.

View service →

dg:pc

BIM coordination

Federated model coordination, clash detection, and multidisciplinary alignment — including Navisworks review workflows where required.

View service →

dg:pa

Project audit

Milestone reviews with fresh eyes — reassurance that opportunities are captured and model, documentation, and coordination risks are addressed before they hit site.

View service →

Skills

Training from essential Revit skills through to role-based workshops — BIM theory, team leadership, advanced modelling, and coordination tools for practices building long-term capability.
