As part of the Master’s in Civil Engineering degree program, the project “Development of a BIM Implementation Plan for the Municipality of Quinsaloma, Los Ríos Province” was carried out; this proposal aims to strengthen the planning and management of public works through the use of BIM methodology.
The study was carried out in collaboration with the Municipality of Quinsaloma, in the Quinsaloma Canton, Los Ríos Province. The process began with an institutional engagement that enabled a technical assessment of the municipality’s current situation, with the collaboration of its technical staff to gather information on processes and needs.
As a result, an implementation plan was developed that includes technical guidelines, a reference timeline, a training proposal, and an estimated budget. These inputs provide the institution with a practical tool to move toward more efficient management of public infrastructure projects.
The thesis was developed by engineers María Isabel Garzón Águila and Pedro Andrés Matovelle, under the supervision of professor Víctor Manuel Orozco Chávez, as part of the Graduation Project course for the Master’s in Civil Engineering at the Escuela Superior Politécnica del Litoral.
The document was received by Cristhian Aldaz, Mayor of the Quinsaloma canton, with the aim of benefiting the municipal administration, public sector professionals, and the general public by promoting better-planned projects, the efficient use of resources, and the modernization of local public administration.
