Operational Impact
Users can now access updated drawings in an industry-standard format via the university's Property and Accounting Web page, a significant improvement over the previous manual method. | |
Drawings are published in DWF format and posted to the Web, allowing users to click on faceplate symbols to review related data. | |
The system helps staff relate their existing AutoCAD skills to the ARCHIBUS applications, encouraging users to maintain their own data. | |
Quantitative Benefit
Surveying approximately 4,200 faceplates was completed in a few hours per floor. | |
The project covered approximately 4,000,000 square feet of campus space. | |
