DESIGN CONSTRUCTION PROCESS SMART BUILDINGS R & D DIGITAL DESIGN BESIX Engineering, the group's in-house design office, is constantly embracing new technologies to improve the quality of its work, and in particular the design process for BESIX clients' projects. These technologies include parametric design and Building Information Management. Computational Design BESIX Engineering is a pioneer in computational design. This is the case with parametric design, which uses algorithms and artificial intelligence to improve design quality, reduce the risk of error, test more design alternatives and engage in ever more complex projects. Building Information Management (BIM) In the 2000s, BESIX Engineering was a pioneer in BIM. In the design phase, the BIM approach consists of creating a 3D digital model of a project before building it. This allows to detect errors, optimise the project, estimate quantities and costs, prepare planning and methods. In 2017, BESIX was the second construction company in Europe to be certified BIM level 2 and in 2020, it was certified ISO 19650, the first global standard for BIM. BESIX has also frequently won the top prizes at the Benelux BIM Awards. BESIX's expertise is recognised through the various positions as academic lecturers in Belgian universities, as chairman of the board of the Belgian Building Research Institute and as a member of the board of the PropTech Lab community.
