SECTION H: COORDINATION PROCEDURES
o Trade Contractor shall participate in BIM Coordination Meetings and follow up review meetings as requested by McCarthy. Trade Contractor agrees that as a result of the information exchanged at such meetings, both the digital submission and the Work depicted in the Trade Contractors’ digital submissions, may require changes or modifications by the Trade Contractor to achieve compliant coordination with other elements of the Project, including when provided by others. Such changes/modifications shall be accomplished at no additional cost or time impact to the project, time is of the essence. The Trade Contractors acknowledge that such meetings will require attendance of personnel that are familiar with both the data entry aspects of BIM, as well as an understanding of the Work to be performed and its relation to other elements of the Project. The Trade Contractor therefore agrees that personnel conversant in both shall attend all said meetings. o Trade Contractor agrees that neither participation in the BIM process, nor the use of BIM, relieves the Trade Contractor of the responsibilities described in this document, including to, coordinate the
Work, with the work of other trades, and strictly comply with other requirements of the Subcontract

Agreement, the Contract Documents, and Specifications. It is expressly understood and agreed that, notwithstanding the requirement for submittals in connection with BIM, traditional shop drawings and other submissions shall be provided by Trade Contractor as described in the Contract Documents.
No party will be entitled to any claim for extra time or money, dispute, controversy, cost or expense increase, arising out of the direct or indirect use of BIM. o McCarthy does not waive any of its intellectual property rights and shall have the sole and exclusive right to use BIM project products, all submissions made by Trade Contractors as it deems appropriate; before, during or after construction. o Trade Contractor agrees, notwithstanding the fact they participate or are involved in the BIM process, or receive information of materials from others in connection with the Project, throughout the course of use and development of BIM, they shall not take any position that receipt of such participation or information has, or will, in any respect, waive, release, or otherwise invalidate any of its obligations or responsibilities under their Subcontract Agreement, or any intellectual property rights (copyrights, trademarks/logos, patents, etc.) that may apply to such information or materials. o Trade Contractor acknowledges and agrees, that McCarthy shall incur no responsibility or liability with respect to the BIM or use thereof, including that resulting from errors, omissions or deficiencies in the BIM process. In the event that Trade Contractors provide deficient information or data that does not represent the Work, or is corrupted, or contains a virus, and/or otherwise damages or delays the BIM process, Trade Contractor(s) shall bear all costs associated with reconstructing their BIM’s, and to remediate such deficiencies and their negative impact and effects at no additional costs to
McCarthy, the Owner or other Trade Contractors. o The foregoing process is part of the Trade Contractors’ obligations to make the traditional submissions, and shall not relieve, or lessen in anyway, the Trade Contractors’ obligations contained throughout this Agreement and the Contract Documents.
SECTION H: COORDINATION PROCEDURES
1. FINITE COORDINATION PROCESS
The processes and responsibilities outlined below will walk you through the Trade Contractor expectations and deliverables associated with McCarthy’s 3D Finite Trade Coordination Requirements for this project – which occurs after the development of 100% Construction Documents.
Trade Contractor fabrication & coordination model submissions shall be of sufficient Level of Development (LOD) as specified in this BIM Execution Plan and related attachments to enable accurate and complete clash detection of all building systems and validation to the final as- built conditions. Submissions shall be provided by Trade Contractors within two working days from Contractor’s request, or as defined by McCarthy at the time of request. Shop drawing submittals and the subsequent on-site construction of the Trade Contractor’s work shall contain details, elevations, dimensions, as described in the contract documents and specifications, or as directed by McCarthy.
Each Trade Contractor is required to complete 100% CD / IFC documents to progress into the 3D Finite Trade Coordination clash detection analysis to ensure no finite conflicts exist between LOD 400 elements that are progressed further than the 100% CD modeled content inclusive of fabrication-level elements such as bracing, hangers, supports, etc.
McCarthy will confirm compliance with clash reports for building systems in conflict with other trades and systems. A clashed model will be posted to the McCarthy cloud-coordination site, and notice sent to all parties involved to notify
BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING EXECUTION PLAN (BEXP)
11
them when it is available. Each Trade is required to review the clashed model before the weekly (or other agreed upon) meeting and arrive at the meeting prepared to address the unresolved clashes in a constructive manner.
Each trade is required to collaborate with each other through email, telephone, and in person to resolve basic clashes outside of the regularly scheduled coordination meeting times. It is expected that during said meetings, the team will address difficult areas/issues that are not coordinated between the multiple trades without the participation of McCarthy, Engineer, or Owner. Resolution to conflicts will be collectively agreed upon or directed by McCarthy, at any time, a trade may be identified as having to “relocate”. This trade will adjust the respective element(s) and re-post the model to the project cloud-coordination site the same day. All trades are responsible to update and post changes to models as necessary to accomplish the goals of this Trade Partner BIM Execution Plan (BExP) as directed by McCarthy.
Each Trade is required; in addition to the development of coordinated models, to submit hard copies of their respective coordinated systems in a 2D format as required by the project documents and specifications for approval through the regular submittal process. All Trade Contractors are responsible for producing 2D coordinated drawings after resolving all clashes for a designated area. This file shall include all coordinated drawing information, full dimensions (especially elevation dimensions), text, tags, etc. in order to successfully install the systems in the field.
Each Trade is required to maintain and provide their BIM with respect to generating record drawings/models. It is the responsibility of each trade to update their respective BIM throughout construction to reflect field conditions and any deviations from the signed off coordination drawings. McCarthy may require proof of record BIM’s as a condition for progress payment.
Each Trade is required to update and post any changes originating from RFI’s, Submittals, and Bulletins. Each Trade making changes shall send a corresponding notice to the rest of the team indicating such changes and reasoning behind the change, within three working days from receipt of said changes.
In the event a Trade Contractor fails to cooperate in the 3D Finite Trade Coordination Process, the Trade Contractor will be held responsible for all costs incurred to adjust to the work of others made necessary to accommodate the uncooperative Trade Contractor's installations. If a Trade Contractor chooses not to model certain elements those items must be coordinated in the field to not impede the signed off and approved coordinated systems; including all access zones, failure to do so will result in the non-modeling Trade Contractor being held responsible for all costs incurred to resolve the issue.
2. CHANGE MANAGEMENT PROCESS:
Documenting/Resolving Changes to the Work
Upon issuance of official changes to the Work by the Owner or Engineer, McCarthy and associated Trade Partners are to review the current Construction Coordination Trade Models against the updated Design-Intent Models. If the changes to the Work are significant enough to the extent that the revised design-intent requires modifications to the current 3D Trade Coordination effort, a BIM Re-Coordination Meeting hosted by McCarthy will take place to align updated design-intent with the 3D Trade Coordination effort. Each month, whether there are official changes to the Work or not, Trade Contractors are expected to have their most current coordination models posted to BIM360 for Design Reviews. The Engineer of Record will conduct a model alignment process to keep the Design-Intent Models relative to active coordination. This effort will not aim to capture every deviation or detail in the Trade models, rather only what is deemed significant for the ability to document changes to the Design-Intent relative to actual coordination/installation for record purposes.
Upon issuance of official changes to the Work by the Owner or Engineer, the affected Trade Contractors are to review the change and update their model to reflect the new layout. New model files are to be posted to the project’s file sharing platform sites (BIM360, Revizto & Procore) within 10 days of the issuance of the change. Any clashes to work of others not directly affected by the change to be brought to the attention of McCarthy within the 10-day time frame. A BIM Re-Coordination Meeting will be set up by McCarthy for all affected trades to review the change. Cost associated with coordination time to be included in change order pricing.

PROJECT-SPECIFIC WEEKLY COORDINATION SCHEDULE
BIM Coordination Meeting times, posting frequencies and schedule will be agreed upon at the coordination kickoff meeting. There are 3 types of coordination meeting styles to choose from:
a. LOCKDOWN – BIM Coordination meetings will be conducted in consecutive all-day meetings until coordination has been completed. This process should be used if it’s determined that coordination will be required to be completed within a specific timeframe. Specific times, durations, and frequency per week to be established in detail between McCarthy and Trade Contractors. b. WEEKLY – coordination will be conducted on a weekly basis until coordination is complete. No single meeting should last more than 1 hour. For this method to succeed mechanical trade contractors and McCarthy
Coordination Lead must communicate multiple times per week outside the weekly scheduled meeting. c. COMBINATION – A formula of Options a. and b. combined, as agreed upon between McCarthy and all Trade
Contractors.
4. DIGITAL COLLABORATION AND EXCHANGE PROCEDURES
McCarthy will utilize BIM360, Revizto and Procore for model collaboration, model management and contract drawing file exchange throughout the project, uploading files weekly and/or as needed. All project participants will utilize these construction technology platforms to share and collaborate with other team members through either web portal or local desktop applications. See descriptions below for further instructions on uses of these technology applications.
AUTODESK BIM 360
BIM 360 will be the location for all working BIM files (Revit,
Civil3D, etc.) All deliverables will be produced here. Bluebeam upload to be managed by McCarthy (refer to
Bluebeam notes below). BIM 360 folder structure: “2D-3D Deliverables” a. Milestone submittals that go to the client will be produced here – then copied (archived) to BOX – they will then be uploaded (delivered) to BLUEBEAM for the client. These include models, PDFs, and any other record documents. “2D-3D Working Files” a. To be used as the collaboration folder for working BIM and PDFs. b. All subfolders should follow per discipline.
BUILDING INFORMATION MODELING EXECUTION PLAN (BEXP)

The BIM360 Project Administrator will manage access to files, permissions, and at the folder level. The folder structure will be set up initially with full view access to all Design models for all teams to take advantage of live linking. This will enable using shared or consumed models if a team prefers this workflow at any point in the production process. Each team will have full access to their own folder while all other companies will have view only permission. McCarthy cannot be held liable for any loss of work or file access as a result of using cloud-based hosting platforms as a service provided by any third party, nor guarantees against interruption in this service due to software updates or network instability.
REVIZTO
Revizto will be the integrated collaboration platform for 2D drawings, 3D BIM and Design Issue
Management/Tracking coordination. Iterative coordination, markups and reviews will take place in Revizto as the Design Development progresses in both 2D and 3D – seamlessly allowing project participants to work in either visual orientation to progress and coordinate design aspects. Revizto will be the primary hub for issue tracking to drive design coordination responsibilities to completion at the end of 100% CDs. Revizto will also be the primary source of truth for the most current Federated Coordination Model as the project lives on into the Construction Phase.
