Coordinate the design before problems reach site
Architectural, structural and building services designs are often developed by separate teams. Without effective coordination, conflicts can remain hidden until installation or construction begins.
Celona Consulting brings project models together within a coordinated digital environment, helping the design team identify, review and resolve clashes before they create delays, additional costs or rework on site.
We provide BIM coordination and clash-detection support to clients, consultants, contractors and specialist subcontractors throughout the design and construction process.
Clear and focused model coordination
Clash detection is more than running automated checks. The results must be reviewed, prioritised and communicated clearly so that the project team can take action.
We assess the coordinated model against the agreed design requirements and focus attention on issues that could affect construction, access, operation or maintenance.
Our services can include:
- Model federation and coordination
- Architectural, structural and building services reviews
- Hard and soft clash detection
- Coordination of service routes and structural openings
- Plantroom and ceiling-zone reviews
- Access and maintenance clearance checks
- Clash reports and issue registers
- Model review and coordination meetings
- Assignment and tracking of design actions
- Verification and close-out of resolved issues
A structured coordination process
We begin by reviewing the available models, project requirements and agreed levels of information.
Relevant models are combined and checked using project-specific rules and tolerances. Identified clashes are then reviewed to remove duplicates and insignificant results before clear actions are issued to the responsible designers.
As the design develops, we repeat the coordination checks, monitor progress and confirm when issues have been resolved.
Supporting better design decisions
Effective BIM coordination gives the project team a clearer understanding of how different systems interact within the building.
By identifying spatial conflicts and incomplete information earlier, the team can make informed decisions before work reaches site. This helps improve buildability, protect programme certainty and reduce the risk of avoidable changes during construction.
Why choose Celona?
We combine BIM knowledge with architectural, technical design and construction experience.
This means we look beyond the number of clashes reported and focus on the issues that matter to design development, installation, sequencing and long-term operation.
Our service can support a single coordination review or provide ongoing BIM coordination throughout the project.
Coordinate with confidence
Whether you need an independent model review, regular clash-detection reports or ongoing coordination support, we can tailor our service to your project and delivery requirements.
