Global BIM and EAM consulting firm Microdesk, a leading provider of business and technology services for the design and construction industry, has released version 3.0 of the BIMrx software suite for BIM project lifecycle automation. Enhancements to each product include intuitive UI updates, expanded export options and cloud integrations. Version 3.0 of BIMrx™ further streamlines the tasks associated with Revit project setup, modeling and project management, allowing AEC professionals to focus on high-impact initiatives like digital transformation and sustainability.
BIMrx™ for Revit is comprised of three purpose-built applications: BIMrx Core™, BIMrx MEP™ and BIMrx Fabrication™. BIMrx Core™ 3.0 continues to elevate Revit project, data, and document management with the addition of model and user analytics as well as Imprint, a feature that links or imports Microsoft Word, Excel and PDF files directly into Revit views and sheets. In addition, BIMrx Core™ 3.0 now includes Revision Manager which allows users to add and remove revisions from multiple sheets at the same time and automates the creation of print sets of those revised sheets. Further improvements to tagging, extracting, logging and the Sheet View Manager ensure BIMrx Core™ 3.0 users will save time and resources while executing BIM projects in Revit.
