Success Story

Innovation drives JFE Techno Manila, Inc. in delivering top-class engineering services

Innovation drives JFE Techno Manila, Inc. in delivering top-class engineering services

Customer challenge

As one of the top-tier architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) firms globally, JFE Techno Manila, Inc. (JFETM) has over 25 years experience of providing design and engineering services across different industries.                          
Throughout the years, the firm has diversified and has been delivering reliable design and engineering supports to major environmental management plants, energy plants, pipelines, infrastructure and industrial machinery projects of their mother company, JFE Engineering group of companies located in Japan, which also include projects for domestic and overseas.                                         
The inherent limitations of 2D design hampered their team's efficiency in planning and collaboration. The dynamic demands of the AEC landscape needed innovative solutions to keep up with the tight competition. The company realized its answer with the 3D Design and Engineering Solutions from Autodesk.                             
        

    

                   

    

Project goals

“Technology is the core of our business. We need to be innovative to stay competitive.” said Dir. Rodolfo N. Vicente, Division Manager - Engineering in JFE Techno Manila, Inc..        Innovation plays a key role in delivering efficient engineering designs that will satisfy the requirements of their customers. With the complexities of the majority of their projects, they need reliable tools that can empower their team to be agile enough in addressing all the facets of design to fabrication process.                                    

    

Solution

JFE Techno Manila, Inc. has been leveraging tools such as AutoCAD for 2D and 3D, AutoCAD Plant 3D, Civil 3D, Revit, Advance Steel and Inventor to support JFE Engineering group of companies’ wide array of projects spanning different disciplines such as waste management plants, water and sewerage plants, energy plants, pipelines, bridges, steel Structures, and industrial machineries.                               

The company is spearheading the planning and design of plants while also responsible for the design of equipment being integrated into the main structures. This is where they utilize Inventor to its fullest. With the software's powerful applications, they are able to generate intelligent designs quickly and conduct analysis and simulations with great ease. 

Meanwhile, Civil 3D plays a major role in some of their projects in Japan. By leveraging the capabilities of Civil 3D, they are able to work in a model-based environment and improve project collaboration. This approach enabled their team to address changes quickly and improve their overall design process. Moreover, digital transformation (DX) was being realized by JFETM through the use of AutoCAD Plant 3D, Inventor, Advance Steel, and Civil 3D as part of its top priority to fully adopt design innovations.                                     

    

Business outcome

Partnering with the powerful tools from Autodesk, JFE Techno Manila was able to consistently meet the demands and expectations of their international counterparts.                    

The advent of 3D brought major changes in the way did planning, design, collaboration, and fabrication. The efficiency afforded by the tools delivered positive impacts in enhancing their design to construction workflows and improving project speed delivery.                

Their exemplary capabilities augmented by the digital tools from Autodesk are reflected in the quality of their work and the positive feedback of all their end users. 

                                    

    

Conclusion

Even though JFE Engineering is already known as one of the top engineering firms worldwide, the team behind its success will work continuously and leverage the digital tools from Autodesk in driving innovation to deliver top-class engineering services and play an important role in building sustainable structures here and abroad.                    

Moreover, as digital transformation disrupts AEC, JFETM is gearing towards a more secure work environment. The cloud has its advantages and disadvantages. Ensuring its security for all existing and upcoming projects is the company's top priority.

MEP Philippines Eyes BIM Transformation

Early on, the MEP Philippines began to realise the cumbersome nature of traditional 2D drawings, which, while easy to produce, gave an incomplete picture of the construction. They also had a traditional workflow where they had to send the model to the client for viewing, which was not the most efficient way to collaborate. These are some of the main reasons that led to the company-wide transformation of BIM.

Autodesk Propels EEI Corporation’s Juggernaut Project into a New Direction

EEI Corporation is recognized as one of the leading construction companies in the Philippines, known for the quality of its work and the excellence of its workforce. It has the broadest range of construction and engineering services, with expertise in the construction of large-scale heavy and light industrial projects, infrastructure, and property development projects all over the world.Over the years, EEI has built several power plants, refineries, petrochemical plants, cement plants, mining facilities, industrial plants, buildings, schools, hospitals, roads, bridges, seaports, airports, railways, water distribution stations, flood control systems, steel structures and modular assemblies.EEI Corporation is recognized as one the Philippines’ leading general contractors, but even they have not been spared the challenges posed by the pandemic. As EEI’s personnel started working from home, it was fortunate that EEI began using digital communication and collaboration even before the pandemic, as an alternative to traditional collaboration around printed engineering drawings.


Autodesk Helps Saycon Win Major Local and International Design and Construction Projects

Strength isn’t always in numbers. Established in 2002, Saycon Ventures, a small but very capable design and construction firm has been creating waves not only in the local AEC scene, but internationally as well. The twenty year old firm specializes in the design and construction of vertical structures such as commercial and residential buildings and industrial structures, which are mostly plant designs for international manufacturing companies located in Korea, Thailand, Austria and Germany. Previously, Saycon lagged behind their deadlines due to the inefficiency of their design tools, which led to delays in other aspects of their workflows especially in detailing, model enhancement and visualization. Every aspect of their design process was improved when they started subscribing to Autodesk.
