GHT Limited is at the forefront of BIM technology. GHT, a MEP engineering firm with 99 staff members, has not only ramped up its BIM capabilities, but has completely changed the way it trains its employees on the progressive 3D technology (GHT uses Autodesk Revit MEP) through an extensive in-house BIM training program.
When Ami Kelly, LEED AP BD+C, applied for her current position as director of marketing and business development at Arlington, Va.-based GHT Limited, she recounted how building information modeling was a keen topic of interest in her previous job at an architectural firm.
“When we were seeking MEP consultants, our teams would start with firms that knew BIM,” she says. “During my interview here, I stressed GHT needed to communicate how strong they are in that area.”

“Corporately, we feel BIM is the way the industry is certainly headed,” GHT Senior Principal Bill Gerke Jr., P.E., states. “Our experience has definitely helped put us at the forefront when clients are looking for MEP engineers that can process work in BIM.”
