BIM Content Creation & Development

  • Description

    If you manufacture any building product which is used in Construction regardless of whether it sits in the fabric of the building or is external such as a bench, paving slap or any other external feature the chances are you have been asked to provide a BIM ready model.

    Good BIM ready content makes AEC professionals life easier, if you can drop an intelligent representation directly in to your 3d CAD file you save time and gain accuracy. Frequently, there is not enough component library content available to designers and contractors & even when there is all to often it has been designed badly reflecting on your product.

    The Benefits of providing Quality BIM Content

    If you provide quality usable data of your construction products then you will quickly find that your products are specified very early in the design stage & become integral to the fabric of a building design, as such they are unlikely to be removed or replaced and can easily end up being locked in prior to the procurement stage.

    Good content consist of a host of nneds ranging from inforamtion about the actual product to the creation of smaller file sizes that don't impact on the BIM mode- - those that do can easilly be scrapped from a model putting the manufacturer out of the driving seat.

    About us and BIM for Manufacturing

    We have been supplying Autodesk Solutions for over 25 years making us one of just a handful of Global Autodesk Partners and we sit in both the AEC space and manufacturing - as such we understand the issues experienced by both the manufacturer in deliverying good quality content and how an AEC professional then uses that content.

    Our official Autodesk Training & certification centers are manned by our own staff with our lecturers being directly employed from industry, it is this group of staff who lead our BIM Content Creation Projects ensuring we deliver credible usable models every time.

    What do we deliver to manufacturers?

    Our BIM Product Family provides you with a full eco-system to deliver your content directly to specifiers and the procurement supply chain you can do this simply by handing a structured USB stick over via your customer engagement team or by directly hosting content on-line ensuring high footfall to your own website(s) giving you the wider benefit of seeing your website potentially rank higher on Google and simply making sure your catalogue / website is the first port of call in your sector.

    Our Product family can provide a graphical/photgraphic representation, a workable CAD component, your SKU, Pricing (if desired - RRP/RSP or actual end user price) and EAN/UPC codes should you utilise them and any related components that are required - it is in short fully adaptable to your needs.

    Support - we provide on-going support as you bring new products to market this can extend to our continuing to develop your catalogue for you or by supplying the software and training to allow you to become self-sufficient.

    Testimonials

    We have a number of projects where our customers are working with us on the provision of case studies and testimonials, our challenges so far have been the secrecy that many manufacturers wish to retain around how their content has been created, to date we have signed Non-Disclosure Agreements to ensure that those customers significant competitive advantages are kept, but here is a snap shot of some of our achievements.

    • Commercial & industrial ventilation systems for two separate manufacturers
    • Water Management systems - right down to articulated U-Bends
    • On-going project for paving systems
    • Over 5,000 BIM ready Models being used today.
    • EU standards - we're not just limited to the UK we have active projects outside the UK with our first non-UK project being delivered to Italy.
