Kingfish Maine Enhances Project Collaboration Using Autodesk Build/BIM 360 Build

Kingfish Maine Enhances Project Collaboration Using Autodesk Build/BIM 360 Build

Customer challenge

Kingfish Maine is a vertically integrated and technology-driven aquaculture leader in the sustainable production of premium marine seafood. As a designer, builder, and operator of state-of-the-art facilities, leveraging Autodesk Revit and other BIM technology tools has improved the workflow between designers and the construction arm. Kingfish Maine was looking to improve the process in the areas of project and file management.

Project goals

Kingfish Maine is preparing to hire a large number of contractors to develop their Maine facilities. This endeavor will require significant coordination from design to construction to perform a flawless project execution at no excess in budget and project delay. Kingfish Maine needs to overcome issues such as lack of familiarity with the tool by the construction team and adapting to a new folder structure for cloud files.

Solution

Kingfish Maine has been able to overcome the challenges by training team members on the usage and implementation on a day-to-day basis of Autodesk Build/BIM 360 Build. By optimizing the file structure, and continuing to train construction staff on important aspects of the process such as file access, notifications management for RFI's and issues management, Kingfish Maine is well on its way to achieving its long-term vision: to have all internal stakeholders at Kingfish Maine and external consultants become acquainted with BIM and cloud technologies, from the workflow to the overall business value of full BIM enablement.

Business outcome

By acquiring and implementing Autodesk Build/BIM 360 Build’s project and file management solutions, the company has improved the collaboration workflow between the field and the office. While benefits are difficult to quantify, Kingfish is reporting less loss of data which is leading to a much smoother workflow between stakeholders.

Conclusion

Kingfish uses Autodesk software and works closely with Microsol Resources for insights, licenses, and technical support. Autodesk Build/BIM 360 Build are proving to be great tools for Kingfish, and expect that the benefits will continue to increase as they implement more of its functionality into our daily workflows.

Building Conservation Associates (BCA) Preserves and Restores Heritage Sites with Digital Tools

Building Conservation Associates (BCA) is a New York-based firm that specializes in the technical and historical aspects of restoring buildings and works of art. One of the firm’s earliest preservation projects was restoring the historic Ballantine House at the Newark Museum of Art. In a meeting with Microsol Resources, BCA mentioned they wanted a construction management workflow that leverages cloud technologies to enable their field and office teams to collaborate seamlessly with their general contractor. “We want to keep the project on track and have the ability to link nearly any reference - photos, issues, documents – with connected workflows so they can understand the impact of changes faster,” said Stacy Albanese, Assoc. Director at BCA. Even though the BCA team has extensive experience with the project process and worked well, BCA recognized the need to increase efficiencies.
