Description

OpenBuildings Designer, previously known as AECOsim Building Designer, is Bentley's comprehensive solution for multi-discipline building information modeling (BIM). It enables users to explore, innovate, and expedite the design and construction of buildings more efficiently than ever before. With the ability to design, analyze, document, and visualize structures of varying sizes and complexities, it enhances communication of design intent while overcoming obstacles between different building disciplines and teams located in different regions. The software empowers users to advance their building information modeling practices, leading to quicker project delivery and increased assurance in aspects such as design integrity, workflow efficiency, and overall productivity. By fostering collaboration among architects, mechanical, electrical, and structural engineers through a unified set of tools and processes, it streamlines project management. Furthermore, users can seamlessly integrate information from various formats and confidently tackle projects of all scales, ensuring that their design intentions are communicated clearly with customizable and dependable deliverables. This comprehensive approach ultimately transforms the building design process, making it more cohesive and effective.

Description

dRofus is a comprehensive software solution designed for planning, data management, and BIM collaboration, which ensures that all stakeholders involved in a project have robust workflow support and centralized access to vital building information from the initial planning stages all the way through design, construction, and into operations. It effectively integrates various data sets from multiple disciplines, file formats, and tools into a unified database, allowing teams to efficiently capture client needs, adhere to public standards, manage room data and equipment planning, and verify designs against established requirements, all while seamlessly integrating with ArchiCAD, Revit, and IFC through bi-directional synchronization. Furthermore, it enhances data consistency through the use of room templates and global item catalogs, monitors changes with detailed logs and changelists, and includes advanced search capabilities, along with built-in PDF reports, Excel exports, and customizable reporting options. dRofus also ensures secure and location-independent access through both desktop and web clients, which empowers teams scattered across different locations to work with the most current project information and engage in collaborative planning and design efforts. This level of accessibility and integration ultimately streamlines the entire project lifecycle, fostering better communication and efficiency among all participants.
