The specialist press is talking about BUILDERS & PARTNERS
In the “Architecture / Engineering” column for January-February 2015, the ARCHITECTURE & DESIGN journal archiSTORM describes the sector’s challenges and expectations surrounding BIM (BIM: The new Esperanto of the construction world?). It goes on to talk about BIM Management which, according to Louis-Christophe Moissonnier, “is the natural extension of its basic activity”. As part of its coordination function, a BIM Manager oversees the development of the reference model representing the building from planning stage right through to operation, alongside the architects and design engineers.

Investors, an APUR study that will interest you
In 2014, the Paris urban planning workshop Atelier Parisien d’Urbanisme (APUR) began a census of all Paris offices larger than 1,000 m2. At the end of this survey a study was published in April 2015 mapping the Paris offices by their age of construction and mode of ownership. The main purpose of this census was to identify buildings that could be a resource for projects to turn offices into housing. Given the strong political desire to support these types of projects, it would seem necessary, right from the acquisition or bargaining stage, to assess the technical and economic potential of the projects. Thanks to its analysis of this data, its technical and architectural expertise, and its understanding of asset management, BUILDERS & PARTNERS is able to offer as part of its support missions a quantified scenario for conversion to housing, from among all the possible valorization options.
