Success Story

Autodesk Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection with DSG

Autodesk Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection with DSG

Customer challenge

DSG, a consulting corporate who creates exceptional environments and specializes in the integration of Architecture, Interiors and Landscapes, required a collection of solutions which would enable the design team to deliver a range of services across architecture, master planning, urban design and sustainable design. In 2019, DSG became their new brand name for an ancient practice, with roots going back half a century. The company was re-structured in early 2008 under the current management and partnership that had continued to operate by the original brand name MZP/MZ&Partners since 2003.   

Their team of designers were spending a lot of time on rework and managing data. In addition to that, they had challenges in onsite and real-time coordination. DSG having perpetual licenses which is not able to get latest features and comfortable issues with the hardware, it cause double their effort and reworks. 

Project goals

The majority of the Autodesk Architecture, Engineering & Construction industry is still dependent on the ancient old-style approach of 2D plans and hesitant to adapt to the new practices. Thasaamah proposed DSG required a solution that would assist them in mitigating project risk and help them deliver buildings on time and within budget. The top priority was to reduce time spent on rework and coordination.

Solution

We proposed Autodesk Architecture Engineering Constriction Collection and it allowed us to give training to the team on Autodesk Revit, Autodesk Navisworks while DSG had all Autodesk AutoCAD drawings . In Autodesk Revit, they imported the existing drawings and created 3d model out of it. They were able to do the modifications quickly as compared to Autodesk AutoCAD and thus saved lot of time in rework.. Through Autodesk Navisworks, they used the models from Autodesk Revit and detected the clashes and resolved all the clashes which avoided them to incur losses on money , resources and time at the time of execution. The designers were able to work on other projects efficiently as the rework was very much reduced using Autodesk Revit and clashes were identified from Autodesk Navisworks which made them remove all the clashes well before the start of execution of projects

Business outcome

The DSG design process has been improved and streamlined with the implementation of a BIM workflow. Key business outcomes included the following:


  • Better quality of designs
  • Multiple tools in the Autodesk Architecture, Engineering & Construction Collection workflow helped them analyze the environmental performance and lifecycle cost
  • Design team could now perform simulations effectively and quickly
  • Designs could better convey to clients using visualizations
  • Cost of rework has significantly reduced with the new BIM-based workflow  

Conclusion

The team and the Autodesk Architecture, Engineering & Construction (AEC) Collection helped DSG to improve their productivity, reduce rework, and accelerate their project delivery. The team performance has been improved as a result of the transformation journey.
