BIM, BENTLEY, AUTODESK, CONSTRUCTWARE AND BUZZSAW
•
Bentley
and Autodesk are sharing API’s to allow their software to import each other’s
formats with minimal loss of data and Autodesk in particular is moving towards
a standard format for all of it’s applications allowing for greater
interoperability between their different products (e.g. Revit, AutoCAD, etc.)
•
AutoDesk
and Bentley have most solutions and are acquiring supporting tools
•
Autodesk’s
purchase of ConstructWare and ownership of BuzzSaw are interesting but not
providing much direction yet.
•
BIM
usage is highest among architects but not necessarily highest value-add back to
owner.
•
Manufacturers
have begun figuring out how their data can be layered in.
•
Green
and LEED certification certainly creates strong case for some BIM tools
(sustainable materials).
•
We
are early in the evolution…invest carefully but invest
•
Large
industrial and institutional owners are pushing
•
Standards
have yet to be worked out
•
Companies
working with BIM in some way have had positive experiences and reporting
ability to tackle larger more complex work.
•
One
man’s definition –
Software systems and technology that
use a comprehensive and common data model of a structure to facilitate quicker,
more accurate, less costly, and more efficient design, estimating, procurement,
building and maintenance.
