Operational Impact
The implementation of Bentley’s 3D BIM and reality modeling applications allowed CADDS to develop a connected digital platform to optimize production. This data-centric approach enabled the company to close the gap between stakeholders, reduce costs, minimize waste, and eliminate rework. Having required deliverables for each discipline on a digital platform allowed CADDS to record and retain data, models, and design information. This integrated workflow also permitted the organization to respond to design issues in real-time, enhancing quality control and mitigating risks of costly on-site errors during installation. The new modular design improved on-site safety at mining facilities and reached a wider market than has previously been possible with Bentley technology as the foundation for its workflow processes. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Bentley’s digital, standardized design solution saved CADDS an estimated AUD 24 million across all RTIO mining sites. | |
MicroStation, OpenBuildings Designer, and ContextCapture helped achieve a 10% reduction in design and fabrication costs. | |
Altering the designs within the 3D model space saved 12 weeks otherwise associated with on-site installation modifications. | |
