I loled 😂😂
Lol 😂😂😂
Bim make more rather than footballer lol
Yahhhhhh
The two most important things to be a good BIM Manager: time and experience.
Never rush into becoming one - it is so much more than a software based role. I believe that BIM Managers should have general mastery on software their company works in, however they also need to be experts in complex workflows and coordination methods, as well as software/hardware selection.
Nice explanation c: , please, I would like to know then if it would be correct to say that a Bim Manager, no longer performs the work of an architect, is not so much involved in the process of designing the project, but, is more involved in making the workflow work, would be something like that?
@@milalia5606 yes designing and administering workflows, but not typically doing them hands on. I believe a good BIM manager needs the ability to get hands on if necessary, but otherwise should be a leader vs a follower.
@@AussieBIMGuru Thank you very much, I have an even clearer idea
No way Gavin.
1. Having thick skin
2. Saving up money for your yearly or bi-yearly layoff.
Haha. A good BIM manager has knowledge of the entire workflow. They have a wide range of skills relating to BIM. They are zen masters of patience. They must be 3 steps ahead of their users. The best BIM managers are also professional designers.
Thank you for the information always clear and right to the point.
Can some of you kind global bim users post your country's annual or monthly average salary of a bim manager if possible? It could be a good info to have.
Hi Balkan,
I believe as my position is what you are talking about, it's much more than what you described. It's definitely not all about Revit, the second important software is Navisworks, and many other come along such as synchro.
And also as Arkan said one should understand the whole construction process as he will be managing the construction of the project through BIM, and he will manage the BIM coordination team as well with all engineering departments. Also there are BIM standards that one should learn depending on location to be able to provide the BEP (Bim Execution Plan). There is a lot to learn about it, it's like a new major by itself
Yup, I think THE BEP is probably the most important, and essential role of BIM manager. We often have to enforce standards in whatever environment we are in.
Clash detections?! 🙄
Thanks brother for your explanation, but I would ask you if the bim manager is architect or structural engenieer?
@@keacadd-dz4037 this depends, spme companies want an mep bim manager, some want architecture, some want structural. But in most cases, a BIM manager should have a good knowledge of all especially MEP because most objects that get maintained and recorded in COBie are MEP equipment, devices, fixtures, etc.
It all depends on the nature of the company (contractor, designer, consultant) and the discipline that they use.
I hope this helps.
@@MahmoudCharif-MaxArchitecture I am civil engineer I want to become a BIM manager kindly lead me to the basic steps. Thank you
You have to coordinate between all the MEP disciplines. You don't only have to know about the program, but also about construction, the coordination, the complete process of different BIM implementations.
BIM Manager is a professional who can manage BIM processes, policies, technology and people.

"Revit Jedi", Hahahaa. Nice one Balkan Architect. Like that. Informative vid, keep it up
Thanks Balkan. Absolutely, BIM Management involves a very broad set of skills beyond Revit (or whatever primary BIM weapon of choice).
U r the best person I have known, Tx a lot
Thank you for your effort in describing BIM Manager.
Great content, keep posting
yes...appreciated balkan..
Hello. Thanks for video. Also for a BIM Manager is important IFC export and collaboration and all of documentation linked to BIM like BIM project execution planning.
Thank you so much , your video help me make a better decision 😊
Excellent, Thanks!!
Thanks! great help
Awesome. Thanks
Thank you from ALGERIA
Hello Mr
Your explanation make me so enthusiasm i very interested use the Revit structure
thank you very much
my name Is Fardi, i am from Indonesia.
Absolutely Agreeable
BIM Pro Expert Guru
You are right my dear
thanks for sharing
Excellent
Thank you Balkan as usual very informative, would like to know practically how the BIM manage works and coordinates..what are the key targets .
In my mind it's a project manager with BIM knowledge, maybe an extra PM responsibility a CAD technician has.
The thing is that BIM managers don't necessarily need to do any drafting/modelling, and i love making drawings and working in 3D, so that's what is keeping me from following a BIM manager career, but maybe in the distant future i'll do that if it has a better compensation than CAD/BIM career.
Nice👍👍
Some good info here, but was very high level, no mention of ISO 19650 which would be the main standard that defines BIM processes and protocols
Back in our day, 27 good years ago, a BIM manager is called Project Information Manager or CAD manager. One difference I noticed is that Project Information Managers make the 3D/2D work without them and not because of them.
0:12 Best look ever, like HMMMMMMM YOU WANNA KNOW HOW MUCH ?!
Actually I am a general manager in construction company and I am working on adapting to BIM. In my opinion it is so important for BIM manager to have a complete understanding of the whole construction processes and the methodology that is adopted in certain region. In addition he has to have full understanding of the relationship between different disciplines like MEP, structure, HSE, and architecture
Can you provide me with career guidance
Arkan Majan Engineering Consultancy sir what does HSE mean?
I agree 100% with you, I am an architectural grad and graduated last may. My first three years i was workign doing the architecture side at firm with emphasis on being the BIM guy. I learned to detail, plans etc but was missing the construction knowledge to support my BIM. When i got another job which was design build, i fully got into the construction process which in turn help leverage the information using BIM. Which is why i think most BIM managers i know actually started in Engineering. Becuase most architects dont want to dweleve into the process and simply want an output.
Now im only three years experience, already became BIM manager.

@@alirezazadeh thank you👍
Hi Balkan,
The understanding of BIM Manager which you explained is completely right in my opinion. I have of 3.5 years of Process & system development experience in the Design & Construction firm. My practical experience allows me to effectively manage the design projects. Recently I took the initiative to become a VDC/BIM manager. I have started to acquire the brief understanding of multiple software & its intelligence developed in AEC industry. Yes there are some other factors should also be considered but I imitated with this. Is it the right way to move ahead in Project & BIM Management career ?
Please make a video on rhino.inside revit introduction and basics .
I love you
And learning to become a bim manager
♥️
Can you make a video on the typical workflow, please.
I think in a BIM manager role you need to be good with software maybe an expert in a few. The ability to identify other experts and lean on their specialties and point them in the right direction. because there is no way to know everything. Overall I think understanding how to think holistically, if xxx is implemented what variables would effect what, what are possible unknown effects. Also, the ability to learn fast, generally leveraging other software workflows to fill in gaps of knowledge when learning new software. A big one is working with people, understanding leadership. This may vary from firm to firm Contractor or design and sizes, big or small. I would say your example is more of a BIM Coordination position description.
So for freshly graduation man whit bechlor degree is there a proplems that will faces me???
For the last 2 years i have worked at a leading corporation in the auto industry, from the experience i have gained so far, i dare to say that BIM is the future of architecture.
cheers to that
Hello Krasimir Hristov what softwares should I learn..im certified in revit...what else should I learn...can u give me further details
@@dhanushs6558 at least Revit , AutoCAD , Navisworks , ArchiCAD , bimx , BiM colaborate, 3DSmax , Bim 360… In that order … Good luck!
PS : 3 years later BIM is still the right way ! 😂 Just now the projects are really complex …
Now i am in the aerospace industry, and more… 😁
Greetings 🙂 can you make a playlist? For a detailed work flow of BIM manager of at least one real work?
Hello, is there any complete series or tutorial how it works under BIM Method the whole Project from Idea to execution . and which data should be used??? I tried alot but could find anything where it explains step by step. Thanks in advance.
I think you’re describing the bim specialist
videos about all the process please

Hi Balkan,
I'm currently doing master's degree in architecture and planning of mastering my skills in revit/any other BIM softwares. Seeing that revit is the main player in malaysia's BIM scenario, that's why i'm focusing on revit right now. I'm currently repeating design studio and not sure if i'm talented enough in design. hence, that's why i'm trying to focus on revit right now because if i drop out, at least i still have undergrad degree, and i still able to pursue revit. do you think it's okay to drop out of my current master's journey and straight go into revit jobs? because it seems like, even with master's degree in architecture, the wage is very low here (around US$1000) for project architect/design architect jobs. Whereas for BIM modeller, they can start at least the same amount, but only with degree qualification. My main concern here is the wage, because it seems like jobs in architecture seems to not pay well here, compared to BIM careers or even interior design. Yeah i initially went to do master's because i want to do architecture, but because of the decreasing values of architects in our local architecture scene, and because of the pays are sadly low even for master's holder, hence i'm thinking of changing to join BIM careers. What do you think?
Hi Balkan, what video software do you use to make these videos?
Hello Balkan, what about BIM Specialist ?
Hi ballano. I have a question regarding Bim management concept, as architect and having experience with Revit do you think if I wanna get in this important theme should I do some courses or can I start just with TH-cam information or if there is any book or cd to take this information?
Thank you so much
Hey. I am trying to find a tutorial on how to tile a bathroom (wall tiles so subways - 30cm x 10cm) which is best to use hatch / fill/ paint. Havent found an updated tutorial
Hi. Check out "RevitTube Subway Tile"
Please make a video of cad manager vs bim manager, is it better to follow the cad technician role or a bim coordinator/manager role?
Which has the more money?
Thanks
BIM Manager has a better future, CAD Manager role is becoming less common/necessary.
HI Balkan Architect, thats great tutorial you made i will support it, well i am an architect, doing struggle to be an BIM specialist or Manager so what do you want to propose to start with? Also i would need the source to be work on this? THanks
Thanks Khalid.
U should have a good knowledge of Revit, Naviswork+ dynamo in depth to be a BIM manager nd if some is serious to have a future in BIM my advise would be to go do masters in BIM engineering
I want to become a Bim Manager
What is the difference between BIM manager and BIM engineer and BIM modular.
So if you know revit architecture like basic 3d modeling in revit you can be BIM manager? Like if you can model in revit you know BIM also?
that sound more like a BIM sys-admin, where's the coordination of all the professionals working on the model?
Hi could you start one new series on dynamo...
Agree
Yes..
I launched with my friend a BIM company and want to know If we may gain experience through jobs or we have to get experience first from a joining some comapany. We are Revit structure users. Thanks, I like your videos, all of them.
Which company?? Which country?? I a bim manager.
i think you're describing a BIM lead or a senior BIM modeler not a BIM Manager, a BIM manager is a person who has experience as a Project Manager and understand the digital side of it. the BIM industry failing because of these kind of perception.
i know some BIM managers who fails miserably because they're were a BIM Modelers before and no experience in managing project.
As I have learnt Revit Architecture software to expertise myself to design in Revit
But now I want to involve in BIM collaboration. Can u please suggest..that .am I require to get Certified in BIM collaboration or if I have knowledge ..I could apply for job.do I get?
one more task which you missed is " endless arguments and disagreements when implementing any workflows with existing team "
Hi balka
Can you implimante online classes so many guys are ready for this... I am also one of person
I am structural engineer please suggest me BIM is useful for me if i learn ?
I think I am a Revit Jedi
Does becoming a BIM manager or BIM specialist needed a degree? Or just A vocational training with international Autodesk Certificate
I like to be a BIM manager
Can BIM manager work remotely? For example, I'm here Cambodia I want to work for company from other country from Europe.
If does need architecture knowledge as far as I know. Don't clash detection and reporting count as a part of the bim managers rôle ?
How many salary he said for bim manager
How to get BIM certificate online
Hi Daniel Carvajal! ) how do you do!
Still a design concept director gets 3 or 4 times the salary of a BIM auditor which is the highest BIM position
Hi sir ypur video is great is any jobs for bim360
How long does it take to become a BIM Manager in any organisation?
If you don't have a mastery you will end up a "BIM Sales Manager" master of none or a "Production BIM manager" you just choose.
You are only a operator for revit software the way you explain what is BIM manager.
One question for you Sir,
I am a Civil Engineer- Can I become a BIM Modeler
Bim manager architect or an engenieer?
sir i watch your vidio regular .sir how i download bexel manager ?
I’ve got a BIM technician interview tomorrow, I’ve got a 15 minute exercise to complete in the interview. Do you know what it could possibly be
you have 15 minutes exercise to complete?
then I suggest you do 10 minutes push up, 5 minutes jog on place, that would sum up to 15 minutes exercise then I believe you will pass the interview in Mental hospital
How did it go?
I feel to be a BIM manager you should have previously been a good Bim modeller 2-5 years , a good Bim Lead 2-3years , and later comes a good BIM manager ..!
Where are you from?
I am structural engineer I want to become BIM engineer
Dear Balkan can structural engr become BIM Manager
can you become a bim manager as a civil engineer?
Of course
If so is there a need of strong background in structure subjects
@@DiasDenny Not necessarily. You can be a Drafter and the Engineers will tell you what to draw. But you will need some drafting training though.
@@willdorak985 can you provide me with career guidance
@@DiasDenny You need at least an Associate's degree in Civil or Mechanical or Electrical Engineering or Architecture.
As i have a bachelors degree in civil, can i will become BIM Manager? Which software should i learn to become a BIM manager? Please help me out.
i think revit arch ,naviswork and absolutly BIM360
Bim manager should be a degree of engneering and or archi. Its not anybody can do it. It should be have a background into construction. Its not a software related for a bim manager. You have to correct your explanation. Your miss leading the people understanding.
BIM Managers should have better knowledge about the BIM Documents like Employer's Information Requirements (EIR), BIM Execution Plan (BEP), Level Of Information Need (LOIN), etc...
However thank you for the video, Explained very well.
BIM Managers don’t manage a computer. The computer doesn’t argue. (Well Revit does). We manage egos. Lol
Ive been working with Revit in Offices for about 3 years.
and Ive known the software as a student since 2008.
It is definitely time and experience and more then Expert 3D modeling.
You should know how to define Templates,
Calculate schedules,
Define and create families, implement them into different models.
And probably like others have said here - be well known with the entire phases of construction.
