When developing a process map for BIM PxP development, plans should be tailored to the needs of a particular project and team. This means that on some projects it may make sense for two different activities to occur in series (one beginning only after another has finished), while for other projects it may make sense for those same activities to be executed in parallel (both activities can occur simultaneously). For the example Level 1 process map activities provided below, provide: a potential benefit; and a potential drawback or concern related to conducting the activities in series or in parallel.
Example #1 Activities: Design Review and Design Authoring
i. Benefit of conducting these in series
ii. Drawback or concern related to conducting these in series
iii. Benefit of conducting these in parallel
iv. Drawback or concern related to conducting these in parallel
Example #2 Activities: 3D Coordination and 4D Modeling
i. Benefit of conducting these in series
ii. Drawback or concern related to conducting these in series
iii. Benefit of conducting these in parallel
iv. Drawback or concern related to conducting these in parallel
