Building Information Modeling and Blueprint RF Partner, SmartBIM

Building Information Modeling (BIM) software is a virtual and elemental recreation of actual building parts and appliances. BIM works as an essential toolkit for AutoDesk’s Revit. Revit is a CAD-like, vector modeling software platform - but differs by adding a fourth dimension, time. Revit and BIM allow building architects and designers to virtually design, build and operate a commercial building within its software, prior to construction.

The commercial market-leading BIM provider is SmartBIM. SmartBIM is an exclusive Blueprint RF partner. SmartBIM’s interest in core data networks is strategic. While SmartBIM products are widely used for building design, the company is now highlighting its usefulness as a facility management platform.

In partnership, SmartBIM and Blueprint RF are working closely to create highly accurate hotel building models for the hospitality industry, and individual hotel clients. Models are capable of predicting equipment life cycle, forecasting energy use, analyzing impact of newly installed equipment (before it is purchased and installed), speeds service response, and more. This approach to virtually operating a hotel is new and unique, and will produce highly valuable business intelligence for asset, IT and facility managers.
