For instance, over the past few years, the government has driven the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM), making it compulsory on government construction projects. BIM offers many benefits such as enabling greater sharing of information across the construction team, and easier clash detection for installers.
One of the big elements of BIM is that designers must be able to access BIM objects from manufacturers to use in their models. Brymec has already developed 182 of these ‘BIM objects’ which can be downloaded quickly from our website. This means it’s easy to find and use these BIM elements which can also be ordered online during the procurement process.
But Brymec isn’t only focusing on the design stage of the construction process. We have also recently adopted artificial intelligence (AI) in our warehouse management. The system tracks orders over time and can predict the likelihood of future demand levels for certain products. This allows Brymec’s warehouse management team to order ahead and pre-empt rising demand.
At a time when market volatility has made it difficult to locate some products, AI technology is benefiting Brymec customers by giving them peace of mind that we’ll have the products they need – when they’re needed. This is further supported by our website, which offers a fast way to find and order products for delivery or pickup.
For busy procurement managers, the Brymec website provides accounts for easy tracking of orders and spending. It’s even possible to allocate spending allowances to on-site teams so that they can quickly buy tools or fittings in a no-paperwork, no-fuss process.
