VDC is an integrated process that allows architects, engineers, builders and owners to explore a project’s key physical and functional characteristics, digitally - before it’s built. Coordinated, consistent information is used throughout the process, speeding delivery, eliminating waste and creating an improved process to:

· Visualize, simulate, analyze and predict real-world appearance, performance and cost
· Document the project accurately and efficiently
· Deliver projects faster, more accurately, with a reduced environmental impact
