360° Planning and BIM in Technical Building Services (TBS)

Planning & BIM – precise, connected, future-proof
The specialty of the KONZMANN Division Engineering subsidiaries is TBS planning, with and without BIM.

The aim is an integrated 360° planning approach in which all technical building services disciplines are considered as a whole and optimally coordinated to support high operational reliability, quality and demand-based energy use.

BIM and, in particular, TCON’s BIMtelligence take planning transparency, efficiency and economic performance to a new level and enable future-ready technical building services. Conventional planning remains a reliable and proven approach, while BIM, as a form of digital progress, further strengthens competitiveness. This creates the individually best solution for each customer – technically, in terms of energy use and economically.

360° planning: all technical building services disciplines at a glance

360° planning means that all technical installations and systems within a building or facility are comprehensively planned and coordinated. By considering all disciplines as a whole, interface issues can be minimised, collaboration optimised and technically and economically coordinated solutions developed. The companies within the KONZMANN Group’s Engineering Division take the following technical building services disciplines into account:

Heating
technology

Heating systems for every requirement – from modern heat pumps to complex industrial installations. Heat supply with forward-looking technology.

Air conditioning
technology

Modern air-conditioning technology for every requirement – precise and high-performing. Individual solutions for comfort and industry.

Ventilation
technology

Optimal air quality for every room – with tailored ventilation systems for commercial and industrial buildings as well as district developments. A healthy indoor climate and optimised energy use.

Sanitary
engineering

Hygienic and demand-based water supply – from modern sanitary installations to complex supply systems. Solutions for all types of buildings.

Cooling
technology

Innovative refrigeration technology for industry, commerce and buildings – from air-conditioning systems to process cooling. Tailored solutions for every application.

Electrical
engineering

Integrated electrical engineering for buildings and industry – from high- and low-voltage systems to modern energy supply systems. Safe and smart electrical installations.

Building
automation

Precise control for modern building technology – optimised processes, demand-based energy use and maximum operational reliability through smart measurement and control technology.

Media
supply

Individual systems for gases, compressed air and other media – safe and tailored. Solutions for industry, laboratories and critical infrastructure.

Planning according to HOAI

Planning in accordance with HOAI service phases 1–9: All technical building services disciplines are planned by the companies of the Engineering Division in accordance with the nine service phases of the German Fee Structure for Architects and Engineers (HOAI). Each phase can be commissioned individually and tailored to the requirements of the client and the respective project, whether a building, system or other development. Planning is always carried out on a neutral, manufacturer- and product-independent basis to achieve a solution tailored to the project from a technical, energy and economic perspective.

Basic evaluation

Clarification of the project brief, definition of goals, and initial consultation.

Preliminary design

Development of possible solutions, initial cost estimates, and feasibility studies.

Design planning

Detailed development of the planning concept, integration of all disciplines, and cost calculation.

Permit planning

Preparation of documentation for authorities and permit applications.

 

Implementation planning

Detailed technical planning for on-site execution, coordination of all technical aspects.

Preparation for tendering

Preparation of bills of quantities, quantity takeoffs, and tender documents.

Participation in tendering

Support in selecting and commissioning contractors.

Construction supervision / site management

Monitoring of construction works, quality assurance, and control of timelines and costs.

Project support and documentation

Monitoring of defect rectification, documentation, and operational optimization.

What is BIM?

Here is the English translation of your paragraph: — **Building Information Modeling (BIM)** is a digital planning method in which all relevant building data is centrally captured in a virtual model from the very beginning. All project stakeholders work collaboratively on this model and always access the latest information. This enables digital, transparent, and collaborative processes that not only optimize planning and execution but also significantly simplify the later operation and management of the building and its systems.

Benefits of BIM at the KONZMANN Group

  • More efficient planning: A consistent information base improves coordination and helps avoid duplicated work, planning errors and clashes.
  • Improved cost and schedule planning: Early simulations and transparent data enable more realistic forecasts.
  • Transparency and traceability: Every change to the model is documented, making it easier to track developments and use the information later.
  • Optimisation of the operational phase: The model supports building operation and maintenance after completion.
  • Competitiveness: BIM is regarded as an important step in digitalisation and supports the future readiness of companies in the construction sector.
  • Manufacturer independence: The companies of the KONZMANN Group remain neutral when selecting products in order to achieve a solution tailored to the respective project from a technical, energy and economic perspective.
  • Targeted use of resources: Resources can be planned at an early stage and used according to demand.

Digital expertise and integrated planning as the basis for successful projects

Customers of the KONZMANN Group companies benefit from an integrated approach to the planning and implementation of construction projects. BIMtelligence by TCON combines established planning expertise with advanced digital technology. This results in innovative and tailored solutions aligned with the individual requirements of each project – from a technical, energy and economic perspective.
