4D Simulation & Visual Planning
What We Do
At PlanXtra, we combine scheduling expertise with digital modelling to create powerful 4D simulations linking time and space for better planning, coordination, and communication. Whether you're preparing a winning tender or validating construction phasing, our 4D visualisations help stakeholders see the plan in action.
Our 4D Planning Services Include: Key Areas: Tender Stage Visuals • Construction Sequencing • Progress Tracking • Client Engagement
Tender-Stage 4D Simulations
- High-impact visuals to strengthen your bid
- Time-linked 3D models to explain sequencing
- Show buildability, logistics, and constraints
Construction Phase 4D Modelling
- Integrate the live programme with BIM models
- Visualise crane movements, laydown areas, logistics
- Align design, procurement, and construction packages
Progress Monitoring & Scenario Testing
- Compare planned vs. actual sequence in real time
- Delay and re-sequencing impact animations
- Clash detection and timeline coordination
Client & Stakeholder Engagement
- Presentations that drive confidence and clarity
- Use 4D to communicate changes, risks, and mitigations
- Integration with coordination meetings and progress reviews
Why It Matters
Traditional Gantt charts don’t tell the full story. 4D planning bridges the gap between what’s planned and how it’s built, reducing risk, improving collaboration, and making complexity simple.
Our Tools & Platforms
- Synchro Pro / Synchro 4D
- Navisworks Manage
- Primavera P6
- IFC & Revit-compatible BIM models
- We work with your existing models or help develop simple 3D geometry for rapid simulation.
