Issue:

IFC exported from Allplan software are not linked at the expected position in Revit.
The elevation is correct, however, X and Y coordinates are not the expected ones.
In Navisworks the IFC is imported at the expected position.

Causes:

The IFCSITE has a large coordinate offset, which Revit ignores.

Solution:

In order to place the IFC link in the correct coordinates, the linked IFC file needs to be manually positioned within the host.

Products:
