SUCCESS STORY
VBC Improves Efficiency and Collaboration with BIM 360
Customer Challenge
Alberto Leon, Design Technology Manager for Volumetric Building Companies (VBC), said, “Part of my job is to identify, develop, and oversee the implementation of technologies that help our teams develop innovative solutions. Looking for ways to increase efficiency, I started researching how we could use the Cloud to enable the entire VBC team as well as subcontractors, vendors, material providers, and others to collaborate better on projects.”
“We have used Autodesk products for many years, both desktop applications and the BIM 360 cloud-based platform,” said Alberto. “With IMAGINiT’s expert consulting, we found clear solutions to our problems, reaching a higher performance in our usage of the Autodesk tools.”
Project Goals
VBC's primary goal was to connect the entire extended VBC team including subcontractors, vendors, material providers, and others to better collaborate on projects in a cloud-based environment.
Solution
“We had a strong understanding of some of the capabilities of BIM 360,” said Alberto. “IMAGINiT clearly highlighted some of the platform limitations, so the decision makers at VBC could rest assured we were using the platform to the full extent of its capabilities.”
“We decided to move forward with IMAGINiT and BIM 360 for document management, design collaboration, and model coordination."
IMAGINiT also trained the VBC staff on BIM 360 Design collaboration workflows, as well as helped the overall implementation of BIM 360 Cost and BIM 360 Build.
Business Outcome
“IMAGINiT’s ability to solve our issues quickly and communicate solutions clearly shows how knowledgeable they are and how committed they are to customer satisfaction,” said Alberto.
Conclusion
Alberto said, “In addition to the benefits that come from using BIM 360 products, we have access to an incredibly knowledgeable support team that helps us address issues and come up with creative solutions."
