From 14 to 28 April 2026, the Institute of Information Technology in Civil Engineering (IIC) – Hanoi University of Civil Engineering delivered a BIM Management – BIM Manager course for managers and engineers of CS579 Joint Stock Company. The 16-hour course was taught online via Zoom.
The course aimed to build a team at the company that understands the full BIM management process on a project: planning, organising the common data environment, setting requirements and assessing models, coordinating disciplines and resolving clashes. The last two parts of the programme were designed as hands-on sessions so that participants could work directly on models.

Training programme content
The syllabus was based on the Institute's BIM Manager course and comprised four parts.
Part 1 – BIM overview and execution planning
- BIM overview, terminology and the main uses of BIM.
- The parties involved in applying BIM on a project; benefits and challenges for organisations.
- BIM environments, platforms and tools.
- Legal documents, standards and guidance for BIM implementation in Vietnam.
- Preparing a BIM execution plan for a project.
Part 2 – Common data environment and model requirements
- Using Autodesk Construction Cloud (Docs, Build) to manage project data: storage, member management, submission and approval of 3D models and 2D drawings, RFIs and construction progress, reporting.
- Using Autodesk Viewer and Drive to store and navigate models.
- Level of development (LOD) requirements and assessment of architectural, structural, MEP, plumbing and fire protection models; checking drawings and quantities in BIM.
Part 3 – Organising the BIM model (hands-on)
- Checking how project files are split: the overall file, files for each building block and files for each discipline.
- Team working with worksets.
- Checking the coordinate system: survey coordinates and true north of the building.
- Checking naming and colour conventions.
Part 4 – Coordination and clash resolution (hands-on)
- The clash matrix and the 3D coordination process.
- Building the coordination model and managing Search Sets.
- Detecting and resolving clashes and exporting reports.
Hands-on model checking
In the hands-on sessions, lecturers guided participants through reviewing models from a BIM manager's perspective. Each discipline's naming, line styles and colours were compared with the project template, following the approach to choosing and checking discipline-specific Revit templates. To spot elements that break the conventions quickly, participants used tools for hiding elements and managing view display in Revit, such as Visibility/Graphics, view templates and colour-based filters. Models that passed were then federated for clash detection in Navisworks.
The Institute sincerely thanks CS579 Joint Stock Company for choosing it as its training partner.
