Success Story

Graceland Architects: Using Autodesk Revit for BIM Services, support and training for user proficiency.

Graceland Architects: Using Autodesk Revit for BIM Services, support and training for user proficiency.

Customer challenge

Graceland Architects consulted with Modena to understand potential ways in which Modena could improve their overall skills using Revit. They believed that in improving user proficiency is important to their goal of achieving greater levels of accurate production and timeous delivery of products to their clients.


Project goals

The goals for this project included:

  • Create complex Autodesk Revit detailing.
  • A dedicated Autodesk Revit and BIM support specialist to facilitate training, up-skilling, and address product related issues.
  • Create templates and organise Autodesk Revit-related material.

Solution

Graceland Architects had already been using Autodesk Revit. 

Modena AEC|INF had the product and industry knowledge to facilitate Autodesk Revit training and up-skilling resulting in more proficient Autodesk Revit users. As issues arose along the way, Modena AEC|INF were able to solve and find workarounds while the users continued with production. As Autodesk Revit requires the use of advanced workflows and integration, templates and company protocols were set in place by Modena AEC|INF to guide the team on proper product usage and industry alignment. 


Model health checks and audits were conducted regularly to ensure proper usage of the software and resulted in leaner, faster and tidier Autodesk Revit models. The increase in efficiency of the team and the time saved on implementation reduced turnaround times and enabled Gracelan Architects to deliver complex detailing and design in their models resulting in them being one of the best healthcare design architects in the country.

Business outcome

As a result of these solutions, Graceland Architects achieved the following outcomes:

  • Reduced turnaround times, enabling faster project progression.
  • The ability to create complex Autodesk Revit detailing and design.
  • Improved Autodesk Revit usage by the design team, further enhancing project efficiency.
  • Leaner, faster and tidier Autodesk Revit models
  • Company protocols and documentation workflows.

Conclusion

Graceland Architects had coupled Autodesk solutions with Modena AEC|INF resulting in enabling their design team to become proficient and advanced Autodesk Revit users which in turn produced visually captivating designs that encased complex construction details while also delivering faster project documentation. 


By having Modena AEC|INF as a dedicated BIM support specialist Gracelan Architects had access to instant solutions, audits and workflows designed by Modena AEC|INF which improved Revit usage and project efficiency resulting in leaner, faster and tidier Autodesk Revit models.

K/M2K Saves 2 Hours of Work per Design Review through Better Remote Teamwork with Autodesk BIM360

During the Covid-19 Pandemic of 2020, K/M2K Architecture and Interior Design found themselves struggling to navigate remote working during a national lockdown. Traditional methods of file sharing were found inefficient and lacking for a team that needed to communicate a lot of information at a high frequency.

From 2D AutoCAD to Intelligent iLogic-driven 3D Inventor Designs

Palian was using 2D AutoCAD in a primarily 3D dominated field, struggling with collaboration between branches and the length of time it would take to make relatively small changes to designs. Getting drawings and quantities to the sales team for quotation purposes took longer than desired and a lot of manual user calculations and input was still needed, which increased the change of costly "human error" mistakes.


DRA Global takes on Project Delays with Innovative use of Technology

DRA Global had to overcome a delay of 25 days over deadline for their Sierra Leone Project, so they needed to find a way to get that time back to avoid running over with this project. The impact of this was on their future expansion projects within the same mine, in Sierra Leone, which would be double the size of the original project.
