PDBM Consulting

What PDBM Consulting does

PDBM Consulting is a privately held US professional services firm specializing in Virtual Design and Construction (VDC) and Building Information Modeling (BIM) consulting for the Architecture, Engineering, Construction, and Operations (AECO) industry. Founded by CEO Jorge Quiroz, an architect by training with over 20 years of engineering experience including a tenure managing the BIM/CAD Group at the Port Authority of NY & NJ, the firm delivers a portfolio of interconnected services: Reality Capture (laser scanning, UAV/drones, photogrammetry), BIM Modeling and Conversion (Paper/CAD/Laser Scan to BIM, quantity takeoffs, clash detection, 4D scheduling), Staff Augmentation, Training across the Autodesk product stack (AutoCAD, Civil 3D, Revit, ReCap, Navisworks, Autodesk Construction Cloud), and 3D Visualization including AR/VR. Its core technology is not a proprietary platform but rather a codified library of BIM standards, protocols, workflows, and best practices developed during the founder's oversight of approximately 1,500 infrastructure projects per year at the Port Authority.

The firm's revenue model is entirely project-based professional services, with quote-based custom pricing, multi-year contract cadences, and four primary revenue streams: VDC/BIM consulting engagements, BIM outsourcing, training (remote or on-site), and staff augmentation. GTM is enterprise field sales targeting large infrastructure projects, supplemented by thought-leadership marketing (blog, newsletter, YouTube), industry event speaking (Autodesk University 2023, Aviation Festival Americas 2024), and direct engagement channels (WhatsApp, LinkedIn, Facebook). Customer segments are predominantly government infrastructure agencies (airports, ports, transportation) and engineering/construction firms; named logos include the Port Authority of NY & NJ, HNTB, Jacobs, Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport, Miami International Airport, Port of Seattle, STV Inc., and Orlando Airports, with operations spanning US Northeast and Southeast regions plus Latin America.

The firm is headquartered in Madison, NJ, with offices in New Jersey and Florida, and a micro headcount of 1-10 employees. It is a founder-controlled LLC with no disclosed institutional funding, no parent company, and no subsidiaries on record. There is no public pricing, no app, no API product, and no proprietary software offering; value delivery is entirely through human-led consulting supported by Autodesk's broader technology ecosystem.
