Drees & Sommer use case
Here the client wanted to improve the IFC model quality to provide a better solution for their clients.
We found a solution with 3 easy steps:
- Upload of IFC file
The models can be easily uploaded via a drag&drop on a dedicated landing page.
- Automated checks and reports
After the upload, we check whether the requirements are fulfilled. If the check fails, a BCF report is sent to the model author.
- Handover to client’s solution
If the check is successful, the file is sent to the client solution for further use.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
We cannot provide you with a fixed timeline, but we can for sure tell you that:
- We need to assign API keys and create a landing page where you can drop the IFC files so that we can process the information;
- We need to schedule a training session to help you get started.
However, you still have to set up your project on bimspot, organise your models in our Model Management, create and maintain KPIs, Information Requirements etc.
-
There is not a direct answer to this question.
The cost for this service depends basically on two factors:
- monthly frequency of usage;
- the complexity of your models.
