Success Story

The team at Johnson Controls UK&I faced a challenge within their organisation as they grappled with disconnected workflows that spanned across various inter-disciplinary teams. This disconnection hindered the efficient operation of their business processes, creating bottlenecks and inefficiencies that needed immediate attention.
To address this issue, the team had to embark on a journey to unify not only their workflows but also their templates and drawing processes. This unification effort required a comprehensive reevaluation of their existing systems and the implementation of a cohesive strategy to streamline operations and promote seamless collaboration among teams. In doing so, Johnson Controls UK&I aimed to enhance their overall productivity, reduce errors, and ultimately achieve a higher level of synergy among their diverse workforce.
Over the span of the past six months (and currently still live projects ongoing), working in close collaboration with the Johnson Controls UK&I team, we have successfully undertaken an ambitious project to enhance communication and collaboration across their diverse and multi-disciplinary workforce.
One of the most impactful contributions we've made to Johnson Controls UK&I during our collaboration has been the development and implementation of Revit templates. These templates have proven to be instrumental in the unification of their workflow processes and outputs. By providing Johnson Controls UK&I with a standardised and efficient template system within the Revit software, we have streamlined their design and documentation procedures. This not only ensures consistency in the way projects are executed but also significantly expedites the creation of drawings, models, and other project-related materials.
As a result, Johnson Controls UK&I has experienced increased efficiency, reduced errors, and improved overall productivity, marking a pivotal milestone in their journey towards optimising their operations and achieving their strategic goals.
Johnson Controls UK&I has successfully transitioned into a more unified and streamlined working platform. Through meticulous efforts, they have established standardised naming conventions, optimised data transfer processes, enriched their Revit model libraries, and refined their overall workflow. This transformation has not only bolstered internal collaboration but has also greatly enhanced their interactions with customers. With these improvements, Johnson Controls UK&I is now better equipped to meet the needs of their clients, provide consistent and high-quality services, and foster a more cohesive and efficient working environment, marking a significant step forward in their pursuit of excellence and innovation.
The approach taken for this project involved the development and delivery of a comprehensive, fully consultative led bespoke training solution, meticulously tailored to align with the specific business requirements and unique needs of the organization. Throughout this process, considerable care and attention were devoted to accommodating their existing set of desired outcomes, ensuring that the training program not only met but exceeded their expectations.
This consultative approach allowed for a deep exploration of their current operational challenges and objectives, which, in turn, informed the design and execution of a highly customized training curriculum. As a result, the organisation was equipped with a training solution that was not only highly effective but also seamlessly integrated with their existing processes, ultimately leading to the achievement of their strategic goals and enhancing overall operational efficiency.

Laser Wire Solutions uses Autodesk solutions to design bespoke machinery
With the growth of the business, accompanied by an influx of designers, an expanding product range, and a growing customer base, Laser Wire Solutions came to a crucial realisation. They recognised the necessity to transition to a system that could not only cater to the needs of designers but also accommodate other vital team members, spanning from order processing to the shop floor. In addition to this expanded accessibility, Laser Wire Solutions sought a solution capable of handling release management in a more sophisticated manner, along with the ability to effectively manage and track changes throughout the entirety of their operational process. This strategic shift in their approach aimed to address the challenges posed by their business's evolution and to foster enhanced efficiency and collaboration across the organization.
PreFab Lab creates a new vision of design quality with Fusion 360
The challenge faced by our customer was rooted in the desire to implement a unified system that could seamlessly span from the initial design phase through to the manufacturing stage. Their primary goal was to establish an integrated and cohesive process that would enhance efficiency and productivity at every step of the production cycle. This unified system was not only expected to streamline the design-to-manufacturing transition but also play a critical role in optimising nesting processes, a key component of their manufacturing operations. By unifying these aspects, the customer aimed to simplify their workflow, reduce potential bottlenecks, and ultimately achieve a more seamless and cost-effective approach to product development and production. This reflected their commitment to staying at the forefront of industry standards and innovation, ensuring that their products met the highest quality and efficiency standards.
