The 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 Outcomes
As a result of these solutions, Graceland Architects achieved the following outcomes:
- Reduced turnaround times, enabling faster project progression.
