Success Story

BIM Implementation and Custom Tool

BIM Implementation and Custom Tool

Customer challenge

Parametrix Desired to Implement BIM deliverables for their Water, Wastewater, and Process projects. They wanted to deliver data rich models to clients and communicate design intent clearly at all stages with accessible 3D models. Parametrix recognized that at the core, this would mean the implementation of Autodesk Revit, along with training and support.

Project goals

The goal was to fully implement BIM delivery in the process group so that they could lead competitors in new technology adoption and offer data rich models to their clients. To that end, Parametrix desired training, customization, a custom program and ongoing support.

Solution

Autodesk Solutions Used: Revit, BIM 360 Docs, BIM 360 Design, Dynamo, and Revit API’s CAD Masters delivered the following services: 1) In-person and remote training in Revit and BIM 360 2) Technical support process for Revit & BIM 360 issues 3) Revit staffing – CMI staff provide expert Revit design services to fill gaps in Parametrix production staff availability 4) Custom programing to tie BIM data to an external database. Development began in Dynamo and was migrated to .NET using Revit API's.

Business outcome

CAD Masters was able to deliver the training, implementation, support, and customization services Parametrix needed to fully implement Revit in a cloud environment using BIM 360. The Parametrix team delivering these process projects has been working almost exclusively in Revit since near the beginning of the project, utilizing the custom program to tie in with their external database. This has allowed Parametrix to be a leader in embracing new technology and win more work with happier clients.

Conclusion

CAD Masters’ ability to support and guide at all stages of this project allowed Parametrix to get up and running quickly and work through problems as they arose. Having one consulting team that knows Parametrix’s BIM strategy, created and understands their custom data program, offers them top tier support and can assist with project work allows them to go all in delivering their projects in BIM, knowing they have the training, support, and expertise they need with them every step of the way.

Design Tool Standardization and Efficiency Improvements

BKF has more than 400 staff using Autodesk software with Civil 3D at the core. Across the company there were large variances in staff skills including: Civil 3D knowledge and best practices; awareness of and ability to use peripheral software (Infraworks, Vehicle Tracking, Raster Design, etc.); use of available customizations including custom programming and templates. Opportunity was seen to improve information sharing, reduce duplicated effort, and produce consistent results more efficiently.
