Bimeco Validator — CORENET X BIM Compliance Checker

Skip the Written Directions. The Bimeco Validator automatically checks your IFC files against every CORENET X requirement before you upload — so your first submission is your final one. No BIM coordinator needed. Free, web-based, and built for Singapore A&E firms.

Bimeco Validator workflow

Built for CORENET X

Stop guessing. Know your model passes before you upload.

Pass First Submission

Automated checks cover every IFC+SG parameter BCA requires. Resubmissions add weeks of delay and direct consultant fees — catch non-compliance in minutes, not after BCA sends a Written Direction.

No Installation Required

Browser-based access for your entire team — no downloads, no licences, no dedicated BIM coordinator required. Small A&E firms can run full CORENET X validation without specialist staff. All data is hosted in Singapore data centers.

AI-Assisted Parameter Fixes

AI-powered tools identify missing IFC+SG parameters and help you assign correct values directly in the browser — without going back to your BIM authoring tool for every fix.

Open Standards

Validation logic is based entirely on BCA's published industry mapping table — open, auditable, and not proprietary. Your models stay in standard IFC format and work with any compliant tool.

Revit Round-Trip

Fix flagged issues directly in Revit and re-validate in one click. No manual re-export, no re-uploading from scratch — the sync keeps your validation results current as you work.

BCF Issue Tracking

Assign every compliance issue to a team member, link it to the model element, and track resolution through to sign-off. Your full audit trail is ready for BCA review before you submit.

How it Works

From model check to approved submission

Catch Issues Before They Cost You

Run automated checks against every mandatory IFC+SG parameter in BCA's industry mapping table. The validator flags exactly what's missing or wrong — no more interpreting the mapping files yourself — and supports direct Revit synchronization so you fix issues in minutes, not days.

Validate the Full Federated Model

Federate Architecture, Structural, and MEP models and validate the combined submission in one step — catching cross-discipline clashes before BCA does. Every consultant joins from a browser with no software to install, so coordination doesn't stall on who has the right licence.

Manage Issues & Keep an Audit Trail

Track every model revision and manage outstanding compliance issues using built-in BCF tools. Assign issues to team members, link them to model elements, and maintain a full audit trail for BCA review.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Bimeco Validator really free?+
Yes — the Bimeco Validator is free to use during our beta programme. We are opening access to Singapore A&E firms to gather feedback and improve the tool ahead of a full release. Sign up now to get early access and help shape the product.
What is the Bimeco Validator?+
The Bimeco Validator is a free, web-based tool for viewing, validating, and collaborating on IFC (Industry Foundation Classes) files. It's specifically designed for CORENET X submissions and OpenBIM workflows in Singapore, providing automated quality checks and multi-party coordination features.
What file formats does the Bimeco Validator support?+
The viewer supports IFC 2x3, IFC4, and IFC+SG formats, which are the industry-standard formats for BIM model exchange. You can upload IFC files exported from Revit, ArchiCAD, Tekla, OpenBuildings, and other major BIM authoring tools.
How does CORENET X validation work?+
Our automated validation engine checks your IFC files against CORENET X submission requirements, including all mandatory IFC+SG parameters outlined in the industry mapping files. The validator highlights missing or incorrect data so you can fix issues before official submission—reducing the risk of Written Directions and project delays.
Which CORENET X requirements does the validator check?+
The Bimeco Validator checks all mandatory IFC+SG parameters defined in BCA's industry mapping table. This includes element classification, storey assignment, material properties, fire rating, and space boundary data — the parameters most commonly missing at submission. You can learn more in the CORENET X vs CORENET 2 guide.
What is the difference between the Bimeco Validator and other Free IFC viewers?+
The Bimeco Validator is completely web-based and free, unlike most desktop IFC viewers that require installation. It includes Singapore-specific CORENET X and IFC+SG validation—features rarely found in generic viewers—plus collaboration tools built for consultants, engineers, and contractors.
Can the Bimeco Validator modify BIM files?+
Industry Foundation Classes (IFC) is designed as a read-only file format. The Bimeco Validator is not designed to modify model geometry. However, it can be used to assign missing IFC+SG parameters to the BIM model before submission to CORENET X.
