How to update Revit models to As-Built reality in seconds

Give your BIM models a second life!

BIM is a tremendously powerful approach for managing project risks through clash detection and model coordination. However, once construction begins, keeping the models updated with real site conditions becomes challenging, resulting in a disconnect between the building plans and the actual reality at the site. 

Many call this the gap between the office and the field. 

This brings familiar problems, ranging from coordination issues and disputes during construction, to post-Handover costs during Operations and Facility Management — the map doesn't match the terrain.

Enter the BIM-Fix tool 🔧🤖

Using this feature, Imerso automatically moves any misplaced BIM models to their correct onsite location, at the press of a button. This gives you an As-built IFC that you can easily import to your Revit environment and merge with your models: Voilá! A reliable As-built BIM, without any of the site travels, photos, manual control measurements, and manual modelling effort.

Here's how it works:

1. Run the BIM-Dev tool in Imerso to check for onsite mismatches against your models.
2. Click on any detected misplacement (orange objects) on the listed results.
3. Click "Move Position" and then "Save BIM-Fix".
4. Export the .IFC models and .BCF files, then load those into Revit.
5. Approve changes in Revit and resolve .BCF issue. Done! ✅
