PROMA increases design management efficiency with Autodesk Construction Cloud

With over 25 years of expertise, PROMA is a leading design and construction company in the Slovak architectural and design landscape. In 2018, they established the VDC Studio (Virtual Design and Construction Studio) to spearhead digitalization efforts in construction, focusing on BIM (Building Information Modelling) and other cutting-edge technologies.

PROMA encountered intricate challenges in fostering collaboration among its three branches, specifically in the intricate realm of central Autodesk Revit files. The imperative for seamless cooperation on sizable files, coupled with intermittent collaboration requirements involving specialized personnel dispersed across various branches, propelled the necessity for a comprehensive solution. The intricacies of managing substantial design data across multiple locations necessitated a robust strategy to ensure optimal efficiency and precision in their engineering workflows.

The paramount objective revolved around empowering engineering experts to seamlessly interface with Autodesk Revit central files, irrespective of their geographical constraints. The pivotal challenge lay in circumventing the inherent limitations posed by physical distances, ensuring unencumbered access and collaboration on the critical central Autodesk Revit files. 

This endeavor demanded a technologically advanced solution capable of transcending spatial barriers, fostering a dynamic and unhindered exchange of design data among specialized professionals dispersed across diverse locations. The emphasis was not merely on connectivity but on establishing a robust infrastructure that could harmonize the intricacies of large-scale data collaboration in the context of complex engineering projects.

Graitec, our esteemed vendor of Autodesk software solutions, presented a transformative proposition by recommending the adoption of Autodesk BIM Collaborate PRO licenses. This strategic move marked a paradigm shift for PROMA, facilitating the seamless migration of central Autodesk Revit files from localized servers to the expansive realm of Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC). This technological leap not only transcended geographical boundaries but also ushered in a new era of global collaboration among design professionals. The robust capabilities of Autodesk BIM Collaborate PRO provided PROMA with a sophisticated platform for orchestrating synchronized teamwork, unifying designers scattered worldwide under the umbrella of a stable and reliable internet connection.

The implementation of Autodesk BIM Collaborate PRO not only elevated the accessibility and availability of Autodesk Revit files but also catalyzed an evolution in collaborative practices within the engineering domain. The ACC ecosystem emerged as a central nexus, empowering diverse design teams to interact, iterate, and contribute collectively to intricate engineering projects. This integration significantly augmented PROMA's project management capabilities, fostering an environment where design data flowed seamlessly, ensuring real-time collaboration, and enhancing the overall efficiency of their engineering workflows.

The implementation of Autodesk BIM Collaborate PRO marked a watershed moment in dismantling collaboration impediments for PROMA, ushering in a new era of seamless teamwork across all three branches. This innovative solution not only obliterated the challenges associated with collaborative efforts on a singular Autodesk Revit central file but also catalyzed an organizational shift towards a more unified and interconnected approach.

The resounding success of Autodesk BIM Collaborate PRO spurred PROMA to make a strategic investment in a corporate BIM Collaborate license, solidifying Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) as the centralized nucleus for information exchange and meticulous document control across a spectrum of pivotal projects. This transition elevated ACC to a paramount role, serving as the epicenter where diverse engineering teams synergized efforts, ensuring a cohesive and synchronized approach in managing crucial project data.

The corporate Autodesk BIM Collaborate license not only amplified PROMA's collaborative capabilities but also imbued their project management endeavors with heightened efficiency. ACC emerged as the quintessential platform where intricate design intricacies, timelines, and budget considerations seamlessly converged, enabling PROMA to assert unparalleled control over project documentation, coordinate efforts effortlessly, and deliver superior engineering outcomes on a diverse array of significant ventures.

Autodesk Construction Cloud stands as a pinnacle in the realm of project management, orchestrating an unparalleled streamlining of engineering workflows. This sophisticated platform doesn't merely provide control but redefines how project data is managed in the cloud, offering an innovative approach to document control and user activity tracking.

By harnessing the capabilities of Autodesk Construction Cloud, PROMA has transcended conventional boundaries, ensuring meticulous control over a plethora of documents hosted in the cloud. This entails a dynamic synchronization of critical engineering documents, fostering an environment where version control, collaboration, and access are seamlessly managed.

The transformative impact extends beyond mere efficiency gains. Autodesk Construction Cloud serves as a temporal and spatial guardian, safeguarding not only project timelines but also elevating the precision and quality of documentation delivered to clients. The centralized repository within ACC becomes a nexus of real-time collaboration, allowing engineers to iterate on designs, track changes, and maintain an unwavering focus on delivering superior engineering solutions.

The time saved through streamlined project management on Autodesk Construction Cloud translates into a tangible enhancement in engineering precision. This temporal efficiency, coupled with the platform's robust version control mechanisms, ensures that the documentation presented to clients reflects the epitome of accuracy and quality. In essence, Autodesk Construction Cloud becomes the conduit through which PROMA achieves not just project milestones but a seamless integration of precision and efficiency in their engineering endeavors.
