How manufacturers fit into

Marta Gutiérrez explains "In general, Archicad is more visual and focuses more on the architectural side than the engineering side, and therefore does not allow for some of the calculations that Revit can do. Therefore, products such as electrical or HVAC equipment are more useful in Revit format than Archicad". Marta says that manufacturers often hesitate between developing BIM objects in Revit or in Revit and Archicad. Comments "When a manufacturer asks our team of Content Developers for advice on choosing between Revit and Archicade, we often ask them how many users the company wants to reach. We always recommend developing BIM objects in both formats so that the manufacturer can reach as many users as possible," says Gutiérrez and adds "Architectural firms that work with Revit often do not work with Archicad and vice versa. So the ideal solution would be to have both.

If the budget is tight, the priority usually becomes Revit, which is the most widely photo editing servies used BIM software system." Expanding the availability of file formats is often dictated by demand. Marta explains that it often happens that a manufacturer who may have started only with Revit receives a request from a user interested in receiving products in the Archicad file format. Sooner or later, the manufacturer ends up creating both formats. How can manufacturers quickly create BIM objects? Creating BIM files takes time, knowledge and resources. The BIM object creation team at BIMobject has over a decade of experience creating BIM files and knows how overwhelming the process can seem, especially for manufacturers.
