WEEKLY REPORT

The stuff we found most interesting for the BIM career centric this week.

 

BIM Career Ladder update:  The BIM Competency Assessment report has been improved.  For anyone not getting the support they need to progress, it now links to relevant career opportunities.

 

 

The latest from Mr.Smith, a BIMBeing.  Psalm #13 is about how worthless BIM accreditations are.  I couldn’t agree more BUT blame the clients I say.  Give anyone an easy way to confirm competency and they will take it.  A few years ago the BIM Compass was created to assess corporate BIM Capability based on real experience.  Clients loved it.  But why didn’t it take off?  Because it required the clients to back it – to get involved and insist on it being used by the supply chain.  They wouldn’t.  Much easier to leave it to others.  So they get arm wavers and law suits.

And, psalm #14 – you may not be the IT guy, but if you can help then why not?  It’s incredible that BIM specialists are still being asked to plug in the printer.  Why isn’t the boardroom ensuring the whole business is enlightened?  Is it because IT specialists cost more than BIM ones?

 

 

 

(CAREER) OPPORTUNITY OF THE WEEK 

MEP BIM Technician Nice opportunity to join a high quality and successful team working on recession proof and exciting aviation projects.  Maybe not as career centric as some but definitely job satisfaction with a team committed to doing the job the best it can be done and having fun!

 

 

 

ARTICLE OF THE WEEK

I think the prize this week has to go to AECMAG and their article on Alison Watson (MBE), COYO and DEC about attracting next generation talent to the construction industry.  This is my take on it.

 

 

 

 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“There isn’t such a thing as a discipline called BIM, rather it is a set of tools and processes enabled by People.“

David Throssell, Head of Digital Construction at Skanska.

I am determined to help anyone enthusiastic about their career in digital construction make the most of it. For 20 years I specialised in architectural recruitment before nailing my colours to the BIM mast in 2008. Hopefully, I have made a 'positive' difference to a few people's careers in that time. What I have learned over the years is that too much of the genuine talent is squandered. There is not enough information out there to help. It's out there but not shared. So, my solution is to find it and share it in this free knowledge 'hub' for anyone working in the Digital Built Environment - or thinking about joining us. If it doesn't deliver what you want - let me know!
