Featured success stories
Western University Customer Success Story
As Western University continues to grow and improve, the Facilities Planning and Design team was seeing extensive number of projects, clients and potential employees asking about their Building Information Modeling (BIM) strategy. After evaluating their current workflow, they realized that BIM offers opportunities for tighter integration with external and internal stakeholders such as other departments including safety and security, marketing, and maintenance.Initially, SolidCAD has been Western University’s Autodesk Solution Provider and has provided support and maintenance for their products such as AutoCAD. Upon evaluating their current technology stack, SolidCAD first helped the university transition their educational licenses to commercial and would further help them implement Revit and help transition them from their previous AutoCAD environment.Prior to 2020, Western University’s Design team had no previous Revit experience, and with the amount of work they were receiving, they were unable to take the time to have a team member develop those skills. As they continued to see a need for BIM knowledge, the university hired two people in 2020 with familiarity of Revit but required further assistance on implementing the software, creating standards and templates that met the needs and requirements of the university’s typical infrastructure projects.
Quinn Digital Asset Protection Inc. Customer Success Story
Quinn Digital was in search of a robust and efficient system to enhance the communication between field operations and the office, as well as to streamline the process of tracking assets. They were looking for a solution that could accommodate numerous endpoints and personnel in the field, facilitating the recording of securely installed assets while ensuring precise verification and maintaining a detailed log of all activities. Furthermore, it was imperative for the field crew to have access to an intuitive and visually oriented tool that would simplify their workflow and make it user-friendly.
Transforming Project Management With Autodesk Construction Cloud: The Paper Excellence Success Story
Paper Excellence faced the challenge of implementing a Project Management Platform for their recommissioning project in Prince Albert, SK. This ambitious project had the potential to generate 250 direct jobs and support an additional 1,400 indirect jobs upon its restart. To meet their needs, Paper Excellence evaluated various solutions and found that Autodesk Construction Cloud Solutions, including Autodesk Docs, Autodesk Build, and Autodesk Cost, offered the capabilities they were looking for.
