5D – The next step in the Revolution in of Construction. Paper and ink plans are 2D, CAD provides 3D, time is the 4th dimension and by attaching a schedule to each 3D object it becomes 4D. Adding financial cost data (estimated, contracted, budgeted, and actual) makes a 5D process. 5D is also a project delivery process for all phases of the construction process, virtually eliminating the need for duplication in effort, thereby drastically reducing cost and risk from the very beginning. With a 5D process potential design or construction issues can be identified early, before they become costly. A 5D platform enables an organization and their extended teams to transform their traditional methods for project delivery, over a planned period of time, into use of the BIM and VDC for enhanced abilities that create efficiencies to the project delivery process. This process has been coined as 5D project delivery as it uses the 3D intelligent data from the design processes to benefit the downstream estimating, scheduling, contract – cost – project – change – earned value management, and controlling requirements of your projects. Ultimately providing the owner organization with the ability to create and control sustainable value and operational efficiencies of the commissioned asset. From workflow and collaboration, capital planning to facilities maintenance, desktop – cloud – mobility device capabilities, the 5D software is a next generation standard for project delivery.
