BIM & Green Building Lead

Role Objective To lead the Building Information Modeling (BIM) process and Green Building certification strategy for the entire Cultural Theme Park - integrating multi-disciplinary design coordination, digital workflows, and sustainability compliance through all project stages from concept to as-built. Key Responsibilities 1. BIM Management & Digital Delivery - Establish and enforce the Project BIM Execution Plan (BEP) across all disciplines - Architecture, Structure, MEP, Landscape, and Ride Engineering. - Define and maintain LOD (Level of Development) targets at each design stage: - LOD 100 - Concept Design / Massing Studies - LOD 200 - Schematic & Design Development (volumetric, area zoning, site coordination) - LOD 300 - Construction Documentation (precise geometry, materials, and service routes) - LOD 350 - Coordination & Clash Resolution (interfaces between stone, steel, MEP, etc.) - LOD 400 - Fabrication / Construction Detailing (shop drawings, CNC models, pre-cuts) - LOD 500 - As-Built Model / Facility Management Integration - Conduct clash detection and constructability analysis using Navisworks, Revit, or Synchro. - Oversee 4D (time) and 5D (cost) model integration with project scheduling and BOQs. - Ensure CNC fabrication data for stone and steel elements aligns with BIM geometry (STL/DWG precision validation). - Establish a Common Data Environment (CDE) for version control, model sharing, and live coordination between consultants, vendors, and site teams. 2. Green Building & Sustainability Leadership - Lead the project's GIHA / IGBC / LEED / Green Destination certification from registration through audits. - Define sustainability objectives for: - Energy Efficiency: Renewable integration, HVAC optimization, lighting controls - Water Management: STP reuse, rainwater harvesting, low-flow fixtures - Material Sustainability: Use of lime-based mortars, low-embodied carbon materials, dressed stone reuse - Waste & Resource Management: Construction waste segregation, circular resource planning - Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ): Thermal comfort, daylight, air quality - Conduct energy modeling and daylight analysis within the BIM environment. - Coordinate with consultants for simulation studies (IES-VE / DesignBuilder) and ensure compliance with GIHA benchmarks. - Document and submit all credits, simulation reports, and narratives to the certification authorities. 3. Integration of BIM & Sustainability Workflows - Embed sustainability parameters (energy, daylight, material data, EPI, WPI) within the BIM model. - Develop a Digital Sustainability Dashboard linked with BIM 360 or Power BI to visualize energy, carbon, and water data. - Manage 6D BIM (sustainability data) and 7D BIM (facility management and operations data). - Support real-time performance tracking during execution using IoT/BMS data integration. 4. Documentation, Reporting & Training - Maintain detailed BIM coordination logs, issue trackers, and model review schedules. - Prepare monthly BIM coordination and sustainability progress reports. - Train project teams, consultants, and contractors on BIM workflows, model auditing, and sustainability compliance. - Liaise with external assessors, consultants, and verification agencies for periodic evaluations. Qualifications & Experience - Bachelor's degree in Architecture / Civil / Mechanical / Environmental Engineering. - Master's degree in BIM Management, Sustainable Design, or Environmental Engineering preferred. - 10-18 years of experience in BIM implementation and green building certification for large-scale developments (mixed-use, campus, cultural, or infrastructure). - Proven delivery experience of LOD 100-500 BIM workflows. - Certification in GIHA / IGBC / LEED AP / GRIHA Evaluator required. - Proficiency in Revit, Navisworks, BIM 360, Dynamo, Rhino/Grasshopper, Synchro, and energy simulation tools (IES-VE / DesignBuilder). - Familiarity with Indian NBC, ECBC, ASHRAE, and ISO 19650 BIM standards. - Experience with Digital Twin / Asset Management systems desirable. - Strong coordination, analytical, and leadership skills. - Willingness to work full-time at Mahabalipuram, managing real-time model coordination across design and execution. Preferred Attributes - Experience with monumental stone structures and heritage-grade architecture. - Understanding of Vastu and traditional construction principles integrated with modern MEP and sustainability frameworks. - Knowledge of smart utilities management, BMS, SCADA, and IoT integration for energy monitoring. - Ability to lead multi-disciplinary digital transformation within a cultural infrastructure project.
