Invantive Press Release: IGG and Invantive join forces for development BIMCalc.

April 18, 2012 — IGG, a specialist in the field of key figures for construction and earthworks, road and waterway (GWW) and Invantive; the specialist in the field of automation for real estate have found each other. As a result, the development of BIMCalc a fact. This plug-in helps users of Autodesk’s Revit to make a quick cost price estimate and thereby allow all parties to see the financial feasibility of a Building Information Model (BIM).
Strengthening by collaboration

There has already been a collaboration between both companies. They have one of the largest builders of the Netherlands equipped with risk models for real estate development projects with key figures from the field. Now they join forces. “The collaboration between IGG and Invantive is a good move. We complement each other to a greater whole in terms of knowledge on adjacent areas and at all levels the cooperation is very inspiring,” says Guido Leenders, director of Invantive.

Why BIMCalc

Putting together building plans is done by different parties, each with their own expertise. In recent years a trend has occurred to reduce the failure costs through better collaboration. This is done by a Building Information Modeling (BIM); a joint integrated plan in which the information from all expertises is collected. The design package Revit Autocad helps with entering BIM. IGG wants to help users of Autodesk Revit to make a quick cost price estimate based on a Revit design. This estimate is made by a so-called plug-in added to Revit; BIMCalc. This requests full transparency reports of cost prices based on the key figures of IGG.

The same key figures are also used for the compass construction cost and the website bouwkostencheck.nl. For example, architects and designers during the mass study and sketch study real-time insight into the financial feasibility of a design. While all parties further refine the design together in Autodesk Revit, the financial feasibility can always be updated on the spot.

Launching BIMCalc

The launch for BIMCalc is scheduled for early next year. During the Build & ICT Exhibition in March 2012 the collaborating companies will demonstrate this plug-in live to the visitors of the exhibition.
