How BNBuilders Eliminates Rework and Builds Owner Trust

In BNBuilders' project meetings, the team pulls the latest as-built capture overlaid with the BIM model to check sleeves, blockouts, and MEP routing before they're covered up. Issues surface and decisions get made in minutes, without returning to the job site.

Brian Arnold (VDC Executive) and Nick Gass (Senior Project Engineer at BNBuilders) discuss how Cupix and Autodesk work hand in hand to seamlessly transition pre-con to earthworks, reduce sub-trade time on site, and avoid schedule-altering rework on a live school construction project in Washington State.

This isn't a product overview. Brian and Nick share the specific moments where the tools made the difference: documenting an undiscovered underground tunnel before demolition, catching a radiant heating pipe issue with two square feet of slab removal instead of two thousand, and running deck QC before a concrete pour when drones weren’t an option.

You'll hear from both sides of the workflow. Brian, who leads preconstruction and innovation, and Nick, the project engineer responsible for twice-weekly field captures. Together, they’ll show how Autodesk models and Cupix captures work together in a real, bidirectional loop on an active job site.
