Fast and intelligent viewer that boosts communication

BIMcollab Zoom boosts communication for JSB through fast and intelligent model checking

Jundi Schrade Baumeister (JSB) | 23 Sep 2020

Tobias Geise: “We had been using the BIM issue management with BIMcollab Nexus to our satisfaction for quite a time when BIMcollab Zoom was recommended to us. So we decided to give it some consideration. When choosing a software tool, three factors are always important to us: Performance (fast processing and reaction / short waiting times), Interface (attractive and clear user interface), Usability (ease of use, intuitive, short training period).

Communicating clashes/issues: From 2500 to 9 min

FIMBLE builds an IDM - Smart View generator for BIMcollab ZOOM

FIMBLE builds an IDM – Smart View generator for BIMcollab Zoom

Joep van Motman and Erik Visser | 18 Mar 2019

FIMBLE is a company that works on projects for housing corporations daily. For these corporations they advise to use the Aedes IDM, developed by the branch organisation of corporations. This information delivery manual (IDM) describes what information the corporations need in BIM-models for the purpose of management and maintenance. In this blog we explain how FIMBLE gets a grip on checking all requested building data from Aedes IDM with BIMcollab Zoom.

AllesWirdGut increased project transparency with BIMcollab

AllesWirdGut | 18 Mar 2019

We integrated the BIMcollab practice for our BIM Coordination meetings, making it possible to discuss issues, solve issues and document them immediately. “Trust me, I know what I am talking about: you won’t be disappointed. After trying and getting to know the BIMcollab workflow, you will not want to go back. I don’t!” says Agron Deralla BIMster at AllesWirdGut Architects.

Everybody's tool for fast model validation

BIMcollab Zoom: the tool for fast model validation

Pieters Bouwtechniek | 4 Feb 2019

Pieters Bouwtechniek makes use of a complete BIM software suite, including (but not limited to): Revit, Navisworks, Solibri, BIMcollab Nexus and BIMcollab Zoom. Barendregt: “In addition to creating IFC models, we of course validate our models. Our BIM coordinators use the Solibri model checker, but this tool is a bit too ‘heavy’ to be used by every structural engineer in the team. We wanted a more accessible tool for fast model validation. That’s why we introduced BIMcollab Zoom to all our engineers.

Managing 100.000 + issues

AECOM manages 100.000 + issues for Kuwait International Airport

AECOM | 13 Dec 2018

 AECOM discovered soon that managing all the issues and clashes with Navisworks only was unmanageable due to the large amount. Kuwait International Airport Terminal 2 is a 750.000 sqm project designed by Foster & Partners. For the 25 million passengers that are passing through annually it will be a state-of-the-art building with a high level of comfort, and will set a new environmental benchmark for airport buildings.

BIMcollab Nexus fits our professional approach

Archipel Generalplanung | 2 Nov 2018

Diogo Bastos, BIM Manager at Archipel Generalplanung. ”In a BIM project with more than 10 different disciplines, more than 5 different authoring software tools and around 200 IFC models, efficient communication is the key to success. Thats why we chose for BIMcollab Nexus”

Speak the same language, again

Speak the same language, again

vrame | 2 Nov 2018

 BIMcollab brings various groups of designers, users and clients on the same page again, enabling them to truly work together and achieve success, fast. Before and within vrame we (Marc and Jens) worked on numerous BIM projects, but we didn’t have a thorough issue management process. Identifying and resolving issues in the design and construction phase was always an intense period of producing loads of e-mails, revision clouds and phone calls; a diffuse and inefficient process.

BIMcollab Nexus really does promote actual cooperation

Just Architects | 31 May 2018

BIMcollab Nexus turned out to be an excellent tool for managing the issue management workflow. It helped us to centralize, filter, and thus to easily focus. It helped us to keep the speed in the project. Dutch software company AFAS is building a new head office: the AFAS Experience Centre will be 44,000 square meters.

We had our 'Aha!-moment'

The strength of BIMcollab is the intuitive interface & usability

formitas | 15 Mar 2018

Our first focus was on the Stand Alone BCF Manager and we used our IBPM-Platform to exchange BCF files. But we soon discovered BIMcollab and the BCF Managers for Revit. That was the real ‘Aha! moment’. CDPP-Project is the very first BIM-Project for BLB NRW With the CDPP-project, modern research rooms are being built on a leasable area of around 6,400 square meters.

BCF Managers are essential

gmp | 7 Mar 2018

As a collaboration platform for the exchange and coordination of issues, BIMcollab was fundamental for us in the transition to BIM. The live connection between Solibri and BIMcollab was crucial in the decision-making process. Meinhard von Gerkan, Volkwin Marg and their partners have planned and constructed buildings in most major German cities since 1965. They

Manage information with BIMcollab

Manage information with BIMcollab

IDP | 27 Feb 2018

Changing our methodology was crucial to overtake the situation. Using a collaborative cloud platform like BIMcollab was the key to our success. Facing tight deadlines and a high volume of modifications during the Design and Construction Phases with a traditional coordination approach (mail, phone, PDF reports) was not an effective methodology at all. This situation got even more chaotic when we had to collaborate with other firms and keep track of all the versions and issues related with the Model coordination.

BIMcollab empowers the team

Multiplex | 26 Feb 2018

BIMcollab helps to increase the levels of collaboration, effectiveness and efficiency on our projects and it provides access to a real-time audit trail that provides both textual and visual information, which is extremely useful. Multiplex Construction Europe is a Tier 1 Main Contractor working on major construction projects in central London. Multiplex was founded in

BIMcollab speeds up the process

Laing O'Rourke | 20 Dec 2017

This traditionally Excel-based exercise slowed down the process of identifying and communicating issues. BIMcollab was implemented to mitigate this issue, allowing many users to all be viewing and commenting on the design at the same time, whilst providing visibility of these issues to all users. ”My name is Lindsay Collier and I worked as a

BIMcollab is highly effective

Laing O'Rourke | 19 Dec 2017

Using the clash detective tool within Navisworks is fine, but BIMcollab makes the process of creating issues and reporting them to the project teams far more streamlined and automated. Matthew Bannister, digital engineer with Laing O’Rourke, is currently working on the project Sir Henry Royce Institute for Advanced Materials. They have been commissioned by the

BIM meetings reduced to 30min

Archivolt | 8 Nov 2017

Getting the data right by using BIMcollab turned out to be a huge time saver. A 4-hour meeting was reduced to a 30-minute meeting, which left us with much more time to focus on the design. The social housing complex ‘Het Schip’ (the ship) was designed by Dutch architect Michel de Klerk in 1917, constructed

Eliminating countless email threads

Eliminating countless email threads

Macobo | 8 Sep 2017

 In BIMcollab the issue was communicated clearly to all parties involved and everyone knew what to do. Such seemingly simple situations have a huge positive impact on the workflow. Macobo is an allround engineering office. They offer a complete package of coordinated engineering designs for new buildings, infrastructure- and industrial projects. For the project of a new crematory centre in Lommel (Belgium) they joined in as the structural engineer.
