BIM team partnership keeps a complex project moving forward

Openings Studio works seamlessly with integration with Autodesk® Revit®

Key project challenges:

∙ Create a fast start-up curve for a customer who was new to the multidisciplinary BIM process

∙ Maintain the flow of up-to-date information for a complex, constantly changing project

∙ Bring additional, independent security and safety expertise to the project’s BIM team

∙ Coordinate knowledge transfer between stakeholders through planning and construction phases

Solution:

ASSA ABLOY’s expertise and experience in building information modeling (BIM) helped Zarhy Architects to provide ongoing ideas and specification support. This was essential in a multifaceted project. Our BIM professionals were fully integrated with the project from the beginning of its planning phase. They were available throughout — including via direct communication channels within Openings Studio software — to help ensure all required specifications for the project were met. According to Nimrod Schenkelbach, Architect in charge, ASSA ABLOY’s “deep understanding of complex safety and security requirements” helped them identify and deliver creative solutions to their clients.

Openings Studio is always current and drawing on a comprehensive, ready-to-use BIM Objects library of hardware solutions. Also accessible through the life of the project and building — ensuring everyone working on the new R&D centre always finds the information they need, fast.
