Integrating BIM Quality Control
into your Organization.

From design to construction, maintenance, and now AI, BIM data is used at every stage. OpenAEC gives your whole organisation one environment for keeping that data dependable, whatever tools or expertise people bring.

Upload a model, and it is
checked against your own rules.

From authoring the rules to extracting attributes and geometry and even tracking fixes.
OpenAEC manages the dependable BIM data every future stage depends on.

A circular diagram of the construction process — planning, schematic design, detailed design, estimating and ordering, construction, completion and handover, and maintenance — with a check gate at every transition between stages. At the centre, checking and reviewing/sharing repeat, while the people involved at each stage carry out the checks around the outside

Why does the quality of BIM data vary so much?

The quality of BIM data is determined by the experience of teams and their judgement.
Three things keep organisations from simply running their own standard.

  • Standards are not
    shared across teams

    ProjectReviewerBoth use different standards.

    The organization has no shared quality standard.

  • Judgements differ
    from person to person

    Checks depend on theExperienceKnowledgeof staff.

    Results change depending on who does the checking.

  • Checking and fixing
    are not connected

    TheFindingFixingRecheckingof an issue are handled separately.

    This leads to rework in later phases.

What OpenAEC solves

  • 01Organisation and team standards

    One place for your rules, held as an asset

    Define and manage what you require of BIM whether that is naming conventions, modelling rules and the rest within OpenAEC. There is no need to rebuild the rules for every project keeping one set in use turns the know-how earned on each project into an asset the organization holds.

  • 02Automated checking

    BIM data checks, run automatically

    Uploaded models are checked automatically against the rules you defined. Missing attributes, clashes, and consistency between disciplines. Findings are laid out as a report you can share with everyone involved.

  • 03Less time, higher quality

    Cut the time checking, Raise the data quality

    Defects found after handover, then fixes, then resubmission that cycle of rework gets shorter. Check BIM data continuously against the same rules and share the results straight away: less load on review, and better BIM data across the whole project.

OpenAEC is built on openBIM technology

Define the requirements, build the model, verify it, and hand the issues back.
That sequence is the openBIM Workflow that buildingSMART defines as an international standard.
Every OpenAEC feature is designed along it.

  1. Requirements

    Author and manage BIM rules

    Author the BIM rules your company, department or team has to followusing technologies such as bSDD, IDS and Dynamo.

    IDSbSDD
  2. Production

    Review the BIM data you produced

    Anyone can open and review BIM data authored in BIM tools straight from the browser.BIM data can be edited as well.

    IFC
  3. Review

    Check BIM data automatically

    Coordination work that used to be checked by eye such as consistency, clashes and clearances is automated, so it can be run efficiently.

  4. Operations

    Raise and share what you find

    In OpenAEC, you can assign errors and areas requiring correction that were identified during a check to responsible personnel as generated issue reports.
