Success Story
Founded in 1946 as Environetics, ENV delivers architecture, planning, and engineering services, and is the pioneer of the commercial interior design profession in the United States. Their designers and engineers work on principal-led teams to craft designs that complement the brand of each client. They take pride in their ability to ask tough questions and listen closely, enabling them to expertly combine form and function while basing design decisions on real budgets, schedules, and processes.
As a pioneer, ENV knows the value of innovation. They build their employees’ skills, adopt new technologies, and improve processes to retain customers that have trusted ENV for decades and attract new customers who want a partner that is mission driven, collaborative, and committed to delivering outstanding customer service.
Already using Autodesk AutoCAD and Autodesk Revit software and impressed with the plethora and reputation of Autodesk design and management tools, ENV sought an Autodesk reseller that could help them innovate by confirming their software needs, developing the right solutions at the right time, and offering implementation, training, and support. Their first request was for the creation of a project-launch template to streamline their process and give their designs a consistent look and feel.
After evaluating a few companies, ENV selected IMAGINiT. “While we could get a template from a number of companies, IMAGINiT offered much more, including training and support services, employees who understood our industry, and an interest in partnering with us for the long term,” said Lucas Koch, Project Manager, ENV.
To help ENV achieve their goals, their IMAGINiT account manager holds regular meetings with Lucas and other ENV professionals, keeping current on their business objectives, bringing in IMAGINiT experts as needed, and recommending software and training. The ENV / IMAGINiT projects have included:
“The good thing about Autodesk products is that you can complete a task in about a million different ways, however that can also be daunting,” said Lucas. “Starting off with IMAGINiT on the template project was the right first step. It created efficiencies that everyone immediately recognized and set the wheels in motion to work with IMAGINiT on other innovations that would help us maintain and build our competitive advantage for employees and customers.”
Benefits experienced so far include:
“We have the right technology and relationships to continually innovate,” said Lucas. “Through regular meetings with our IMAGINiT account manager, we learn about the vast functionality of the Autodesk AEC collection and ACC, and we know that the guidance we get from IMAGINiT will be just what we need when we need it.”

C2AE Trusts IMAGINiT with BIM Management Services
For several years, the Building division within C2AE successfully followed a BIM-management-by-committee approach to making decisions on procedures, standards, and best practices. The company’s designers and engineers would meet in person or online, discuss the options, and determine next steps. As the company’s team grew in size and experience level, coming to a consensus became more difficult. C2AE recognized the need to select one person to be the point person responsible for gathering and evaluating all the opinions and deciding which to select and implement.
Swinterton Delivers Value and Achieves ROI with Leica RTC360 Scanner
When renovating buildings, Swinerton starts with as-built measurements provided by clients. Because those drawings rarely include updates, Swinerton relied on their architects to manually measure spaces, put those measurements into Autodesk Revit, and provide PDFs of the information to the designers, who used them as the starting point for renovations. Swinerton started getting laser scans of structures at the beginning of renovation projects using external companies to perform the scanning. “The laser scanners led to great improvements,” said Matt Zwetzig, VD&C Manager, Swinerton. “Measurements were gathered in a fraction of the time, teams knew they were working with accurate information, plans were created faster, correct parts were ordered the first time, and the parts fit as expected.” With business growing and timelines shortening, Matt determined it was time to compare costs for hiring external providers versus purchasing a scanner and completing the work in house.
Massilly North America Automates Processes with Fusion 360 Manage
In 2015, Massilly North America reached out to Autodesk for support on their product lifecycle management (PLM) software, Fusion 360 Manage (previously known as Autodesk PLM 360), which is critical to the company’s day-to-day operations. Autodesk connected Massilly North America with IMAGINiT, and the IMAGINiT PLM team answered questions on specific issues, consulted on workflow improvements, and shared best practices.
