Developed various in-house BIM implementation strategies ranging from creating BIM Templates, enforcing worksharing protocols and establishing cloud collaboration. Performed key roles in research and development of the latest innovation and working methodologies within the construction industry. Research and development roles involved:◊ Creation of interactive Virtual Building Environments to enhance project visualization by utilizing Virtual and Augmented Reality.◊ Conducting feasibility analysis on BIM related redudant tasks and proceeding to develop Desktop Application Addins for Autodesk Revit using C#, .NET Framework, and the Autodesk Revit API Standard Development Kit.◊ Designing and developing Visual Programming Scripts for engineering calculations for the design of Air-conditioning Systems, using Dynamo Visual Programming and Python.◊ Generating BIM Data models for analysis by integrating BIM ODBC files in SQL with Power BI. ◊ Creating and maintaining version control repositories for all Visual Design Scripts and Addin source files. ◊ Online marketing through website creation.Tool stacks included:◊ Revit API Standard Development Kit◊ C#, .NET Framework, ASP.NET Framework◊ HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, Node.JS◊ Python, DesignScript for Visual Programming.◊ Dynamo Visual Programming◊ SQL, MySQL◊ Version control: github

Advised the company on BIM implementation strategies and processes. Implemented BIM on various levels that included:◊ Providing Technical advice to the Symbion Group on BIM, hardware and software technologies and future trend in the construction industry geared towards increasing productivity and streamlining processes.◊ Development of BIM standards, workflows and protocols.◊ Carrying out software and hardware Technical assessments and providing recommendations on applicable BIM platforms and its supporting infrastructure.◊ Establishing a BIM Execution Plan template for use on all BIM related projects. ◊ Setting up BIM Cloud worksharing platforms and protocols for data exchange amongst project team members.◊ Managing BIM Cloud platforms, BIM 360, by ensuring proper document management and version control, providing file access and security, and archiving of old project documentation.◊ Running BIM Model QA/QC processes.◊ Facilitating the exchange and coordination of BIM models with consultants, contractors and fabricators.◊ Automated various redundant tasks such as drawing sheet creation by utilizing tools from the Revit API Standard Development Kit, Dynamo Visual Programming, C#, .NET Framework and various Nuget Packages.

Provided technical trainings to students and professionals on BIM. Shared knowledge and experience on BIM workflows, creating BIM standards and developing templates, and also developing a learning curriculum for use by the students.

Promoted the sale and distribution of construction related materials that comprised of ◊ Plastic pipe work systems for cold water supply for both above and below ground systems.◊ Drainage pipe systems for both above and below ground systems.◊ Gas supply systems.Product promotion was mainly done through technical sales presentations and on-site trainings to the installers of the products. Market penetration was achieved by promoting innovative and niche products, such as PBR pipe systems (HEP2O), which stood out through its ease of use and durability.

Served as a Building Services Engineer, with responsibilities ranging from:◊ Developing preliminary and detailed engineering designs using BIM.◊ Preparing tender documentation, carrying out site supervision, witnessing, testing and commissioning engineering systems.◊ Coordinating both electrical and mechanical services. ◊ Carrying out on the job training for staff to increase their BIM proficiency levels using Autodesk Revit.

Created BIM models for Mechanical and Electrical Services. Through this opportunity, I was able to understand basic modeling principles, model merging and working with external consultants.
