Problem
Construction teams face challenges in coordinating design and fabrication processes, leading to errors, material waste, and reduced productivity. Traditional methods often rely on manual data transfer and lack real-time communication between design and fabrication teams. This disconnect results in inefficiencies and increased costs throughout the construction lifecycle.
Solution
Allied BIM provides a suite of BIM software solutions that streamline the connection between design and fabrication, enhancing remote assembly, spooling, and fabrication processes. The platform integrates with design software, allowing users to export any cut material and synchronize cut lists. Allied BIM's solutions facilitate real-time collaboration and precise assembly instructions, improving operational efficiency and productivity. The software suite includes tools for defining assemblies, spooling materials, generating fabrication plans, and direct thermal and inkjet printing for labeling.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes MEP, modular, and prefabrication construction firms, as well as electrical, plumbing, and mechanical contractors seeking to improve design-to-fabrication workflows.
