BIM services for Australian projects
ISO 19650 alignment, NATSPEC guidance and a handover that suits an Australian morning.
How it works here
Working to Australia practice.
Australian BIM practice is guided by industry documents rather than one mandate. The NATSPEC National BIM Guide helps teams set out a project's requirements, and Australia has adopted the ISO 19650 series as national standards.
Sactik's team includes architectural experience gained in Australia. We take your project's BIM brief as the instruction and deliver models, coordination and drawings to it.
Standards and requirements
What matters here.
Requirements differ by project and owner. Treat this as a guide and send us your project’s own documents: they govern.
NATSPEC National BIM Guide
Industry guidance for specifying and managing BIM on Australian projects, used alongside project requirements.
ISO 19650
The international information-management series, adopted in Australia, which many larger projects follow.
Codes
The National Construction Code and state requirements apply to design and documentation; we model what your designers have specified.
Open formats
IFC exchange is common between design and construction teams, so we deliver IFC alongside native files.
Metric (millimeters) with Australian conventions.
About three hours of overlap with an Australian east-coast afternoon (14:00 to 17:00 AEST), or two in daylight saving. You send work in your afternoon and receive it the next morning.
Hours assume a 09:30 to 18:30 IST working day, which Sactik will confirm. Daylight saving moves the overlap by an hour.
Typical workflow
How a project runs.
- 01Send the project BIM brief and drawings
- 02We agree LOD and naming in writing
- 03Handover notes are written to arrive at the start of your day
- 04A short call in the overlap window when needed
Questions
Australia, answered.
Does the team understand Australian practice?
Our director has worked in Australia as part of a career across the USA, India, London and the UAE. We still build to your project's documents, not to assumptions.
Can you work to ISO 19650?
Yes. We follow the information requirements and naming your project sets out.
What is the turnaround?
It depends on scope, which we agree before starting. We set milestone dates against your schedule.
