Bim Project Management Plan: BILD 361 BIM Residential Project Management Plan

This post covers Bim Project Management Plan, as detailed below.

BILD 361 Project Management Assessment 2 (2026): BIM Residential Project Management Plan

Assessment 2 in BILD 361 moves from the Assessment 1 project management essay to a practical project management plan for a BIM residential project on an allocated Wellington site. Acting for VIC Construct (VICC), students build schedules and cost breakdowns in planning software and Navisworks, raise an RFI in PlanGrid, and write a report explaining why their schedule and communication approach are good.

Course Learning Outcomes

• CLO 1: Understand basic project management systems and their impact on a company and/or project.
• CLO 2: Understand the principles of managing time, cost and quality aspects of a project.
• CLO 3: Take a leadership role in team situations and negotiations by implementing the company’s goal.
• CLO 4: Plan and execute long-term plans in accordance with upper management.
• CLO 5: Understand the basic relationship between market and construction companies.

Assessment Context

The brief sets the scene with global construction growth forecasts to 2030, the pandemic contraction in non-residential building work, long-standing sector problems (low labour supply, weak procurement, low productivity, consenting delays, cost overruns, limited technology training, poor Treaty relations and low quality) and the growing challenge of natural disasters and post-disaster reconstruction. Building on the record of your Assessment 1 essay for VICC, a project management company formed by VUW, you are now asked to deliver a project management plan for an alternative residential project using the BIM drafts shared with you through PlanGrid.

Assessment Task

Reflect on and apply key skills from the previous essay, such as resource, risk and supply chain management, to develop a project management plan that includes, but is not limited to:

• A project schedule plan in MS Project or other planning software.
• A detailed cost breakdown from the MS Project Cost Report.
• A project schedule using Navisworks Manage.
• A detailed cost breakdown from Navisworks Manage.
• A request for information (RFI) and response in PlanGrid.
• A report explaining what you did to create the schedules, mark-ups and RFI, and why you consider the result a “good” schedule and good communication.

The government has earmarked 24 sites across Wellington, each with a BIM model, for these projects. Pay particular attention to project management communication quality, scheduling strategy, cost alternatives, delivery innovations and other construction challenges, and show how your schedule is informed by your Assessment 1 experience. You are assessed on project management, not building design. Few details are available at the feasibility stage, so state your assumptions clearly.

Submission Requirements

• Submit via Nuku on 19 October 2026; do not email the assessment to the coordinator or tutor, and keep a backup copy.
• Submit the report as one PDF, with the project files in Revit (.rvt), Primavera (.xer) and Navisworks (.nwd) formats.
• Include footers with your name and student ID, and name the file BILD361_AS2_SurnameFirstname.pdf.
• Edit for spelling, grammar and clarity; marking stops at the 3,000-word limit (references and appendices excluded).
• Follow APA 6th referencing and the detailed marking criteria and plagiarism rules on Nuku.
