How XR Takes You to
the Next Level
If you're using BIM, you're already in the game. But making the investment in BIM is
only level one. Now, it's time to use it for maximum advantage. Here are three ways
that XR technologies can help you get the most out of your BIM investment—and
take your game to the next level.
1. Reduce Rework, RFIs, and Change Orders
Challenge: Rework, RFIs, and change orders are more than just an
unavoidable part of construction, they can crush your productivity
and profitability.
Gamechanger: By making it easier to visualize and validate the design
in a real-world environment, XR can help teams catch potential problems
sooner and minimize costly issues later.
When specialty contractors and tradespeople are able to visualize their scope of work
and see how it interacts with other systems, they plan and perform their jobs more
efficiently and accurately. Using 3D models overlaid onto existing structures and
systems, they can perform better and faster clash detection—and you can avoid costly
hits to your profit margins.
XR helps you minimize rework, RFIs, and change orders by:
ý Helping everyone clearly visualize the desired end result
ý Making it easier to plan and validate the work to be performed
ý Enabling faster identification and resolution of clashes
Rework is estimated to account for 30% of the work
performed on construction projects and 12-15% of
total costs.

you reduce rework—and so much more.
