It’s an unfortunate reality that design teams often spend significant amounts of time on necessary, but non-value-added tasks. A recent survey we conducted found, for example, that over 50% of designers, engineers, and construction professionals always or very often print PDFs to check the design process. Printing sheet sets is compute intensive and can tie up computers for hours. Other manual, labor intensive tasks include the time BIM Coordinators spend cleaning up and exchanging Revit models with partners, as well as creating room and equipment data sheets.
Inefficiency doesn’t have to be the norm, however. Companies that are using IMAGINiT Clarity find that task automation frees valuable time for teams. Architecture firm RLF, for instance, automatically generates PDF files nightly and each evening over 40 tasks are run. Data aggregated from Clarity users shows that IMAGINiT Clarity saves teams on average 205 hours per project. That translates into 25 work days per project.
If your team could save that amount of time on every project, how would you deploy resources in more productive ways? The possibilities are endless, but popular options are taking on additional project work, spending more time on new business development, and differentiating the firm from the competition by delivering results to clients faster.
