This is part of our Essential Strategies for Harnessing Building Information Modeling (BIM) Coordination, this section emphasizes optimizing collaboration through effective BIM use. Uncover strategies to enhance workflows and reduce errors, leading to a more streamlined construction process.
The architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) industry has changed a lot in the last ten years when it comes to Building Information Modeling (BIM). Projects are getting bigger, which means there’s a lot more information for teams to handle. This information comes in all sorts of formats, from detailed 2D blueprints to complex 3D models, and it includes everything from architecture and structure to mechanical systems and more. Keeping track of these models is crucial for a project’s success, but the old way of viewing them one-by-one can lead to big problems like delays, miscommunication, and even costly mistakes.
When teams have a hard time finding the right model or miss something important, it can mean more work, longer timelines, and people getting upset. Communication often breaks down when project teams can’t get the information they need quickly. This problem gets even worse now that more people are working remotely or with teams spread out across the globe. They need a way to easily access and share project data. The challenge is to find a solution that makes it easier to get to the models you need and to keep everyone on the same page.
That’s where Newforma Konekt’s new 2D/3D Viewer feature comes in. It lets you expedite your BIM Coordination by turning on all models in a folder with just one click, so you can see everything at once without wasting time. This change makes a big difference because it cuts down on the number of clicks and the time it takes to find what you’re looking for. Now, instead of spending hours clicking through long lists of files, you can focus on the project itself. This is especially useful for complex projects with lots of different parts, where being able to quickly switch between models is key.
One of the biggest benefits of this feature is how it helps teams work together. Being able to turn on many models with just one click has a lot of benefits. It means fewer clicks, which saves time and makes it less likely that something will go wrong. This makes the whole process run more smoothly and helps teams stay on the same page without delays. By reducing the time it takes to activate models, project managers and BIM coordinators can focus on bigger, more important tasks. This makes the whole project run more efficiently, which is good for everyone involved.
Think about a typical construction project with different parts—like architecture, structure, mechanical, electrical, and plumbing. Each one has its own models. Before, a BIM coordinator had to set up special views to activate the right models for each part. It worked, but it was a lot of work and took a lot of time. Now, with the new 2D/3D Viewer, you can put all the models for each part into one folder and turn them all on at once. This new way of doing things makes it easier to keep track of everything, reduces the chance of mistakes, and helps teams work better together.
This innovative approach to project information management is designed to meet the needs of modern projects, where efficiency and accuracy are paramount. If you’re looking to improve your project management process, it’s time to consider Newforma Konekt.
