02 What’s In CAD/BIM Boom!

By Handy Kosasih, Managing Director, Interscale

Need an experienced CAD/BIM expert to assist your team? You may not have some specific skills in your team which prevents you from fully utilising your CAD/BIM solutions, and it may not be practical to hire another staff member. Interscale offers a number of consulting services to assist you in getting more out of your CAD/BIM software solutions:

CAD/BIM Consulting Services

• CAD/BIM Site Reporting: Do you have a nagging feeling that you are not getting the most out of your CAD/BIM solution? Or that could be using your CAD/BIM solution more efficiently to get a better return on your CAD/BIM investment? In this case, it might be a good idea to get an Interscale CAD/BIM professional to visit your site to take a look how your CAD/BIM setup is working for you. We will look at how your users are using your CAD/BIM software, your team’s CAD/BIM knowledge, and your CAD/BIM setup in regards to Standards, Templates, Libraries, Macros and add-on software. You will be provided with a comprehensive report complete with suggestions and next steps to implement improvements and investment involved. • CAD/BIM Standards: Having a fully documented CAD/BIM Standards Manual for your system that is linked in with templates is essential to ensure your CAD/BIM system runs smoothly. Businesses often need to manage multiple different CAD/ BIM Standards with different projects and clients which poses its own challenges. Our professional CAD/BIM experts can assist you in managing your CAD/BIM Standards according to your budgets and timelines. • CAD/BIM Libraries & Macros: Let us do the heavy lifting for you with time-consuming tasks like setting up your AutoCAD Block Libraries and your Revit Family Libraries. Again, professional CAD/BIM staff are here to help and will work according to your budgets and timelines. We can also assist our clients with more advanced customisation solutions in the area of Scripts, Menu Macros, AutoLISP, and are moving into C# Programming for more advanced and specific CAD/BIM Customisation. • CAD/BIM Software Install & Updates: Interscale’s professional CAD/BIM staff are also available for any new software installs and setups, and the equally important software updates where current customisation needs to be carried across to the new software.

CAD/BIM Training

Your technology solutions are only as good as the humans using them! Here at Interscale, we ensure you get the best return on your software investment by offering a large range of CAD/BIM training courses for your team in the Architect, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry.

Let us design a training delivery solution best suited for you and your team.

These customised training courses can cover topics of your choice and can be developed around your budget, time commitments and delivered at our premises or on-site at your office space. We will meet with your staff and decision makers when designing the course content to ensure your staff receives the course that is perfectly suited to their needs, whether it be Self-paced Online Training; Live Interactive Online CAD/BIM Training; On-site Classroom CAD/BIM Training; or Customised Workshops.
