Avatech Solutions Launches BIMreview Software for the Autodesk Revit Platform

Avatech Solutions, Inc. announced the launch of BIMreview. This new product is the first and only application for the Autodesk Revit platform that finds inconsistencies in a model and provides automatic correction capabilities, significantly improving companies’ abilities to leverage the building information modeling (BIM) process.

“Our clients invest time reviewing, fixing, and auditing their building models to adhere to industry and project standards,” said Beau Turner, director of business development for Avatech’s Building Solutions Group. “Automating that manual process adds efficiency, improves overall model integrity, and enables designers to spend more time on design.”

BIMreview helps CAD Managers, BIM coordinators, project managers, and facility managers save time and money while increasing confidence in BIM completeness and accuracy. This software application works directly inside the Revit platform to check, correct, and manage information in a building model. By reviewing geometry, specifications and materials, it ensures that the model adheres to company standards, industry best practices, as well as standards set by an individual firm or building owner for a specific project.
