JE Dunn Construction and SERA Architects bucked the trend of cost- and schedule-overrun headlines by applying a combination of custom and off-the-shelf collaboration software to put the design and construction teams and all subcontractors on an all-BIM process to complete a complex building in Portland, OR. Building Information Modeling (BIM) and digital collaboration used on the Collaborative Life Sciences Building (CLSB) saved an astounding $10 million in construction costs on the project’s $295 million budget.
