by Brianna Crandall — March 25, 2016—SES Engineering Services (SES) has set the pace for the industry by becoming the first mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP) contractor to achieve BIM Level 2 Business Systems Certification from building sciences group BRE, one month ahead of the U.K. government’s public sector project compliance deadline.
A specialist in off-site manufactured buildings, SES has reportedly been an early adopter of building information modeling (BIM), using three-dimensional (3D) modeling on projects for over 15 years and embedding data into models since 2010.
As strong proponents of process efficiency in construction, SES sees BIM and its integrational benefits as key to driving continuous improvement in the delivery of MEP services, which can be challenging and complex.
SES Managing Director, Mark Perkins, commented:
SES is very proud of becoming the first MEP specialist contractor to achieve Level 2 certification. It supports the SES brand, our strategy and our reputation for technical authority. BIM is a major strand of our strategic differentiation and is key in our approach to bringing innovation and flair to all our proposals. We look forward to using our certification as a catalyst to becoming more heavily involved in the BIM journeys of all our customers.
SES was awarded its certificate at this month’s Ecobuild 2016 exhibition and conference.
