The French multinational Leroy Merlin has awarded the IDP engineering group with the project of its new commercial surface in Brazil.

Leroy Merlin arrived to the Brazilian market in 1998 bringing a new market concept for the construction materials. Focused on quality products and services, the company offers stores with spacy environments for a better customer service.

This project is totally developed thru BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology, this technology allows to design, project, organize and direct the digital construction of the Project and its subsequent works. It integrates all the information in a parameterized, complete, unique and centralized model that shares all the participating agents that will take part during all the buildings life cycle. This digital model allows the integration of up to 7 dimensions – the 3 physic ones, cost (4th D), time (5th D), energetic and sustainability analysis (6th D) and the Facility Management systems integration (7th D) – speeding up the decision time and erasing mistakes thanks to a global knowledge of the project thru the model.

With this performance IDP consolidates as a high level supplier in the commercial construction sector, one of the most demanding sectors for time, quality and sosts management.
