Drafting & BIM skills assessment
Drafters and BIM technicians produce the documents that projects are built from. This scorecard covers drawing accuracy, model coordination, standards and collaboration for design offices.
- 12 skills to score
- 1–10 scale on every skill
- 6 starting levels

How Drafting & BIM works in SkillScorer
Score
Each designer in a studio is scored on the Drafting & BIM skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank designers, compare two side by side, or compare your studios against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Drafting & BIM skills need attention. Reports also follow each project architect's studio.
Drafting & BIM scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Drafting & BIM scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Drafting & BIM scorecard covers 12 skills: CAD Drafting Accuracy, BIM Modelling, Drawing Standards and Layers, Detail and Section Drawing, Clash Detection and Coordination, Schedules and Documentation, File Management and Revision Control, Interpreting Markups, Software Proficiency, Speed and Productivity, Attention to Detail and Collaboration. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are designers scored in Drafting & BIM?
Every designer is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one studio and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Drafting & BIM?
Drafting & BIM starts with these levels (called “Seniority Level” in the app): Graduate, Architectural Assistant, Architect, Senior Architect, Associate and Director. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Drafting & BIM skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In architecture & design the app talks about designers, studios and project architects, and you can change any of those words too.
