The Macro Model

• Use sketches to develop a concept

15
The Macro Model

• Very rapidly assemble a Macro Model

16
The Macro Model

• Output the Scope, Budget, Assumptions and Proforma

Benefit Streamline The Delivery Process
Setting expectations at the outset of a project
by clearly defining the scope and budget
dramatically reduces delivery time and overall
project cost

Benefit Evaluate Project Alternatives
Alternatives can be evaluated to provide
real-time cost comparisons of building envelopes,
MEP systems, structural systems, levels of
interior finish out, alternate sites, different
parking ratios and landscaping proportions.

Advantage Project utilized DProfiler to run
multiple case studies for the owner, including
evaluations of exterior skin systems, floor to
floor heights, and architectural features, prior
to the architect investing time in CAD generated
documents other than architectural renderings and
sketches.

high-level conceptual cost estimate, based on
schematic level plan information, and
architectural renderings. Competitive, detailed
cost estimate was returned in 4 days.
