The software platform <br />increases labor utilization with advanced resource planning performance, drives project success and improves on-time delivery. <br />BA strives to be at the forefront of computer technology and in order to continue to respond to our client’s needs, our team of over 27 <br />employees, has experience in extensive design software capabilities. This includes AutoCAD and Revit, a Building Information Modeling <br />system, which is a process of generating and managing building data during its lifecycle. We believe using BIM allows us to improve <br />visualization, improve productivity due to easy retrieval on information, increase coordination of construction documents, embed and link <br />vital information for vendors and increase the speed of delivery of documents. Additionally, BA utilizes graphic software such as Sketch- <br />Up, Podium, Lumion, and 3D Studio Max for rendering as well. <br />BA’s Approach and its Familiarity in Designing for Sustainability, Resiliency and Sea Level Rise <br />BA team’s experience in sustainability, resiliency and sea level rise includes working closely with Broward County Environmental Protection & <br />Growth Management Department (EPGMD) and a network of community, academic and government partners to understand how sea level rise <br />impacts flood risks related to the South Florida marine community in past years. <br />Sea levels in South Florida are expected to be 14 to 26 inches higher in the next 50 years, and Broward County requires that all capital projects <br />consider the impacts of sea level rise and assess the vulnerability of facilities including utilities, surface water management, and other infrastructure. <br />In the past years, BA has planned and designed infrastructure projects for many coastal and maritime projects like Sullivan Park in Deerfield <br />Beach, Terminal 25 in Port Everglades, Terminals A, B and V in Miami, the Coastal Resiliency Study for the City of Marathon, and Adaptation Action <br />Area Plan for Cocoplum Beach, Monroe County as well as the Ocean Cay and Stirrup Cay projects in the Bahamas. <br />Cocoplum Beach Adaptation Area, Cocoplum, FL <br />Accommodating for sea-level rise with terminal design 11.5 ft above grade, as well as resiliency and durability of 750+ ft anchored bulkhead at PortMiami.
