How We Build Remote Electricians and BIM Workforce

At SCD Builders

We know the best BIM/VDC professionals are built, not just found. That’s why every member of our remote workforce begins as a seasoned tradesperson—an electrician or mechanical specialist with 7+ years of real field experience as a journeyman, foreman, superintendent, or licensed professional.

We then invest 3–5 months training and certifying them in the most in-demand BIM and VDC software and workflows. This unique approach ensures that when our professionals join your team, they deliver not only technical expertise but also the practical knowledge of how projects are actually built in the field.

Our Process

  • Clients win with professionals who deliver constructible models, prefab-ready outputs, and smoother coordination with field crews.

  • Tradespeople win by transitioning into high-demand, remote BIM and VDC careers that expand their earning potential and career growth—without losing touch with the industry they know best.

This creates a sustainable pipeline of field-driven digital construction leaders.

Understanding Client Needs

We start by learning exactly what your project requires—scope, software stack, workflows, and expected deliverables.

01
Recruiting from the Field

We select experienced tradespeople who already know the realities of installation, prefab, and field coordination.

02
Training & Certification

Over 3–5 months, candidates become certified in:

  • Revit (MEP modeling)

  • Navisworks Manage (clash detection & coordination)

  • Inventor & AutoCAD (design/drafting)

  • Evolve MEP (spooling & prefab workflows)

  • Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) (collaboration & model management)

  • Bluebeam (field communication & documentation)

  • Best BIM & VDC Practices & Workflows (LOD standards, trade coordination, data integrity)

Delivery

By the time they join your project, our Remote Electricians, BIM Specialists, and VDC Managers are ready to perform at the highest level—combining field expertise with digital construction skills.

The Roles We Build

Remote Electricians

Field-seasoned and often licensed tradespeople who not only understand installation and prefab but are also trained in Revit, Navisworks Manage, Inventor, AutoCAD, Evolve MEP, ACC, and Bluebeam. They validate models, create constructible spools, and ensure trade coordination aligns with field realities.

BIM & VDC Specialists

Professionals who handle LOD-350/400 modeling, clash detection, prefab-ready spooling, and data management—bringing both field and digital knowledge together.

Leaders trained in five months to set standards, oversee teams, run coordination, and ensure project delivery. They bridge the gap between digital workflows and on-site execution.

BIM & VDC Managers

Why It Matters

Too often, BIM is performed by engineers or modelers who’ve never installed these systems. That disconnect leads to clashes in the field, costly RFIs, and wasted time.

At SCD Builders, every professional we provide is both:
  • A seasoned tradesperson who knows how the work is actually installed.

  • A certified BIM/VDC specialist fluent in the digital workflows that drive modern projects.

The result? Buildable models, smoother prefab, fewer delays, and data you can trust.

Typical Turnaround Time

  • Remote Electricians & BIM/VDC Specialists: 3–5 months to recruit, train, and certify.

  • BIM & VDC Managers: 5 months of recruitment, training, and leadership preparation.
