About

Amine Souilah — BIM and AI integration consultant

I integrate BIM and artificial intelligence into construction projects: information structuring, interdisciplinary coordination and process automation from design through to operation.

Amine Souilah — BIM and AI integration consultant
My journey

From Architecture to BIM & AI Integration in Construction

I am Amine Souilah, a BIM & AI Integration Consultant focused on transforming construction workflows through digital technologies, automation, and intelligent information management. With an architectural background and a Master's degree in Construction Engineering from ÉTS, specializing in BIM project management, I support architecture firms, engineering teams, contractors, and construction organizations in improving collaboration, productivity, and decision-making through advanced BIM strategies and AI-driven solutions.

Today, my work focuses on bridging the gap between BIM and artificial intelligence. I develop automation strategies, AI-assisted workflows, and intelligent digital tools that enhance BIM processes from model creation and data extraction to quality control and information management. My approach combines technical expertise with practical construction knowledge to deliver scalable solutions adapted to real project needs.

My BIM and AI method

BIM is not software. AI is not a trend.

A method for producing, structuring and transmitting building information — and for making it usable by automation and artificial intelligence.

01

PRAGMATIC

The best strategy is the one that gets implemented. I prioritize concrete, measurable solutions adapted to current team maturity — not inapplicable theoretical processes.

02

DATA AS AN ASSET

A model is only worth the information it carries. I structure every deliverable to serve the building's entire lifecycle — and to keep that data usable by automation and AI.

03

VERIFIABLE

No automation promise without a demonstration. The tools I propose are ones I have built or used — the BIM maturity diagnostic on this site is a concrete example.

Career path

A progressive path, from architecture to AI.

Amine Souilah — BIM and AI Integration Consultant

Remote BIM and VDC services across western North America

About Amine Souilah

Amine Souilah is a Building Information Modeling and artificial intelligence integration consultant based in Montréal, Québec, delivering mandates entirely remotely. An architect by training, he holds a master's degree in construction engineering from École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS) specialised in BIM project management. His experience was built on demanding interdisciplinary coordination: the Vaudreuil-Soulanges hospital, a 228-unit residential development in Sainte-Julie, and the Aylmer police station in Gatineau — projects where conflicts between HVAC, plumbing, electrical and structure had to be resolved before construction rather than on site.

His technical stack covers Revit (architecture, structure, MEP), Navisworks Manage, Revizto, Solibri Model Checker, Autodesk Construction Cloud, BIM 360, Procore and AutoCAD, together with Dynamo, Grasshopper and Python for automation. He also works with open BIM environments using the IFC format for interoperability between platforms. Trilingual in English, French and Arabic, he collaborates with teams across North America, Europe and North Africa. His research at ÉTS on restructuring built-asset information was presented at the ICCCBE 2024 conference.

Services offered

Six services combine BIM with AI-assisted workflows. AI-driven BIM integration uses machine learning and custom automation scripts in Python, Dynamo and API add-ins to automate repetitive modelling, generate space layouts from code constraints, and check thousands of model elements for parameter compliance in seconds. Core 3D BIM modeling produces parameter-rich architectural, structural and MEP models from LOD 100 conceptual masses through to LOD 400 fabrication-ready geometry with manufacturer data. Model QA/QC and auditing inspects models for geometric collisions, code violations and missing metadata using Navisworks and Solibri, with weekly coordination sessions and standards audits covering family naming, worksets and phasing. Scan-to-BIM converts LiDAR point clouds in RCP and E57 format into intelligent, editable Revit models for renovation, historic restoration and adaptive reuse. 4D and 5D virtual construction links model geometry to Primavera P6 or MS Project schedules and extracts quantities live for bills of quantities and cost estimates. Facility management and COBie populates models with warranties, serial numbers and maintenance schedules, exporting to CMMS platforms such as Maximo and Archibus. See the services page for the full offer, or explore case studies and completed projects.

Approach and methodology

Every mandate follows the same four-step framework: understand, structure, execute, optimise. Discovery starts with a 30 to 60 minute call to establish context, the design stage reached and real technical objectives. Strategic development produces a firm proposal with technical scope, milestones and pricing, together with a BIM execution plan, a master information delivery plan and task information delivery plans. Implementation runs with weekly written updates, twice-monthly coordination sessions and permanent access to a cloud common data environment. Optimisation includes thirty days of post-delivery support. Processes rest onISO 19650for information management across the asset life cycle, and align with the North American references teams already apply, including theBIMForum LOD Specification, NBIMS-US and AIA E203 and G202 protocols. Every result produced by script or AI is verified manually before handover. Read the full methodology on the Approach page.

Free BIM maturity diagnostic

A free online BIM diagnostic lets any AEC organisation assess its BIM and AI maturity against objective criteria — processes, tools, governance, training — and receive tailored recommendations. It is available directly on the site with no registration.

Contact and collaboration

Mandates are delivered entirely remotely across western North America — California including the Bay Area, Los Angeles and San Diego; Washington including the Seattle metro area; Oregon; British Columbia; and Québec. Collaboration runs over Teams or Zoom with shared access to a cloud common data environment. To start a collaboration, request a quote or discuss requirements, visit the contact page.
