Notable Accomplishments
Coordination of subcontractor trades is never easy, especially in a facility this complex. McCarthy’s Project Execution Team implemented the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) to accomplish this task. Western Pump participated in regular BIM coordination meetings to help identify conflicts prior to work being performed on-site during construction. A significant amount of time and money was saved and a higher quality of work was produced by all subcontractors that were involved in this process.
