What is Integrated Digital Delivery? IDD Services in Singapore
Integrated Digital Delivery uses BIM, point clouds, robotics, LiDAR, and QR codes to streamline site logistics and boost productivity.
Benefits of IDD
How IDD helps contractors deliver faster, safer, and smarter projects.
Improved Site Coordination
Deliver LOD 400 models with fabrication details, assembly methods, and coordinated shop drawings to guide site execution.
Reduce Project Risk
Use 4D/5D BIM to avoid clashes, visualize complex site sequences, and perform automated quantity takeoffs for cost management.
Progress Tracking & Quality Control
Track project progress and support payment claims with point cloud scans, while detecting quality issues by comparing as-built conditions against the original design model.
Here's what our clients have to say.
With the help of Bimeco, we've managed to work with them to cover up gaps in our documentation by scanning some as-built structures to BIM. It has really saved us when manpower is tight during a labor crunch
Catherine Li,
BIM Manager
The types of HVAC systems that are manufactured by our firm were really complex and needed to be modelled into our GC's federated BIM environment. With Bimeco I was able to get the support needed.

How IDD Works
Our IDD approach integrates BIM and digital workflows across design, construction, and site delivery.
BIM for Construction
Develop BIM models up to LOD 400, including fabrication details, assembly methods, and joining specifications. Produce coordinated shop drawings to be issued to site teams before construction begins.
Virtual Design & Planning
4D BIM simulates construction sequences, helping teams visualize scheduling clashes and optimize site activities. Implement automated quantity takeoffs with 5D BIM for accurate cost tracking and payment claims.
Progress & Defects Tracking
Use point cloud scans to validate as-built conditions against the design intent. Leverage Scan-to-BIM workflows to track progress and support payment claims.
Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between BIM and IDD?
- BIM refers to the creation of 3D models for design, construction, and operations. IDD is a broader approach that uses digital technologies to improve construction productivity. This may include BIM, point clouds, LiDAR scanners, or robotics.
- What are the main elements of IDD?
- IDD includes BIM workflows like 4D/5D/6D modeling, automated quantity takeoffs, and digital twin development. It also covers non-BIM tools such as point clouds for progress checks and as-built verification.
- Is Scan-to-BIM included in your scope of work?
- Our BIM services cover 4D/5D/6D workflows. For Scan-to-BIM, we collaborate with licensed surveyors to ensure accuracy and compliance.
- Is IDD mandatory in Singapore projects?
- BCA actively promotes IDD as part of industry transformation. While BIM submissions via CORENET X are required, IDD itself is not yet mandatory.
- How is IDD related to ISO 19650?
- ISO 19650 sets the global standard for information management. IDD complements it by integrating BIM and non-BIM workflows in a structured, collaborative way.
