KitConnect Benefits the Entire Team

Architects, Engineers, and Designers

• Lower the risk of errors with re-usable standardized design content of previously approved components.

• Configure modules to exact needs while ensuring content adheres to design standards.

• Gain immediate contribution from new designers and consultants with centralized content and quicker onboarding to understand constraints or design standards.

• Connect and maintain analytical data with building services while maintaining module groupings.

• Represent complex Revit components with multiple levels of detail.

• Allow deep dives into content at any point, even early, using the Sync BOM function.

• Enhance collaboration methods with the internal and external project teams.

BIM Managers and Leads

• Leverage repeatable design elements across multiple Revit projects with the KitConnect Unified Enterprise Library.

• Control access and editing rights to standard content with roles and user permissions.

• Simplify and expand collaboration among teams working from multiple locations.

• Use Dynamo KitConnect nodes to publish/place/edit/configure content and more.

• Save time managing fewer designs.

Builders and General Contractors

• Promote design standardization and constructability with design teams.

• Lower risk while increasing efficiency with fewer RFIs on the job site.

• Capture valuable learning during construction and manage them with a re-usable Kit-of-Parts on future projects.

• Standardize repetitive items to reduce the cost and add margin to projects.

Manufacturers and Prefab Companies

• Audit Revit files and ensure data integrity at all times while ensuring the model is buildable. 

• Eliminate human takeoffs and errors with an automatic handoff of parts lists from Revit. 

• Simplify planning and inventory management. 

• Provide early feedback to the design team to prevent downstream issues on the factory floor. 

• Maintain a high-fidelity BIM model that adheres to DfMA intent.

• Promote and support a scalable, standardized set of prefab parts with a cloud-based content library.

• Distribute prefab components to third-party consultants without losing rules, constraints, or organization design standards.

• Build complex configurations to speed the building modeling process.

Owners and Developers

• Quickly onboard and improve collaboration with architects, engineers, partners, and consultants. 

• Secure the design intent and branding with customized libraries and module configuration tools. 

• Standardize brand identity without limiting local variations from planning to building and building materials.

• Quickly push content changes through all the projects in progress and track furniture, fixtures, and equipment (FF&E) issues, updates, and design changes. 

• Continuously improve and protect Intellectual Property (IP) grounded by a centralized content library. 

• Capture all the knowledge learned during a project and leverage for future projects.

• Streamline data handoffs between product, project, manufacturing, and construction teams.

• Reduce barriers to onboarding design firms with easy-to-use configurable content and prefab components in Revit.

• Reduce the burden of QA/QC with on-demand audit capabilities to guarantee high-quality products that result in less design-driven loopbacks from the factory floor.
