“How much does a problem cost that doesn’t happen? This is the main questions we try answer in our presentation “”The ROI of VDC, OMG!”” Everyone wants to know what the return on investment is for BIM, but it can be a very tricky exercise to determine. At Clark Builders we asked the very same question and set out to determine how much money was saved from one of our current VDC projects. This typical, real world, Calgary based project digs deep into project BIM and VDC costs by leveraging the people and technology. By quantifying issues, process enhancements, and comparing back to traditional methods we were able to determine the total cost saved for our project.
