Autodesk Platinum Partner Introduces Solutions for Improving Efficiency While Eliminating Waste and Inconsistencies for Building Projects

WASHINGTON, July 23, 2015 — (PRNewswire) —   Applied Software, a leading technology systems integrator serving the AEC and manufacturing industries, announced today during the Revit® Technology Conference North America 2015 (RTCNA) the addition of several new products to its already expansive list of solutions that help optimize business processes and workflows for building projects.

The new products being introduced at RTCNA Exhibitor Booth No. 36 are: Revit Prolog RFI Integration, Viewpoint Sync and Windows Sync.

"Expanding our building solutions allows us to offer very specific ways to address the ongoing challenges that program managers, architects and engineers face in key areas of construction projects�from how to improve workflow efficiencies and productivity to eliminating inventory waste and document inconsistencies," said Richard Burroughs, president of Applied Software. "Across the board, the new products are designed to solve many underlying problems that can negatively impact not only collaboration, but also the ultimate completion of projects that are on-time and on-budget."

Details on each of the products follow:

Revit Prolog RFI Integration

Unique for Revit, the Prolog RFI Integration graphically associates Requests for Information (RFIs) with objects in the Building Information Modeling (BIM) program. This solution provides users with a more efficient way to track issues by allowing them to create a persistent, direct link to objects in the building model (e.g., the location of an electrical outlet). Users can now automatically navigate to the building model, create or select an issue/problem, ask questions, and add information to a punch list. The Revit Prolog RFI Integration saves valuable project management time by eliminating the back-and-forth manual look-ups associated with RFIs. It is available now for all current versions of Revit.

Viewpoint Sync

Another innovative solution for the marketplace, Viewpoint Sync automatically transfers uploaded documents to the library of BIM 360 Field, a cloud-based field management service combining a mobile application at the point of construction with collaboration and reporting. This product eliminates redundancies by syncing and storing documents via one platform. Project managers using Viewpoint Sync gain the necessary assurance that the latest versions of documents are available to all collaborative partners at the same time, eliminating the potential for errors and miscommunication. Viewpoint Sync is available now.

Windows Sync

This unique product automatically takes files uploaded to Windows Explorer and syncs them with BIM 360 Field. However, this solution also allows for the two-way transfer of files: from Windows Explorer to BIM 360 Field and vice versa. It also complements other storage services such as Dropbox, allowing for the uploading and syncing of file contents to the BIM 360 Field library. With the ability to work with FTP sites and network devices where Windows Explorer is used on the backend, the solution is ideal for project managers looking for a new way to eliminate redundancies, errors and miscommunications between construction partners. It is available now.
