MOREgroup scales AI across 11 parallel design teams with SWAPP

MOREgroup scales AI across 11 parallel design teams with SWAPP
Case Study Description:

MOREgroup is a family of architecture and engineering brands delivering education, healthcare, and civic projects across the United States. As demand grew, the firm needed to increase the capacity of its project teams to manage change and deliver on schedule without sacrificing accuracy or stretching its people too thin. Rather than treat AI as a pilot on the margins, MOREgroup made SWAPP part of how its teams produce work. SWAPP's AI agents operate directly inside the firm's live Revit models, taking on the repetitive documentation and modeling tasks, views, sheets, tags, schedules, and updates, to MOREgroup's own standards, while architects focus on design and coordination. The impact scaled with adoption. Over the year, the amount of new square footage handled with AI grew several times over, with more than eleven design teams working in parallel and over fifteen projects enhanced by the technology and still growing. Instead of adding headcount to keep pace with a growing pipeline, MOREgroup used SWAPP to expand what each team could deliver, while keeping documentation accurate and consistent across a diverse portfolio of education, healthcare, and civic work. The engagement shows how automation, applied firm-wide and grounded in a firm's own standards, can become core production infrastructure rather than a one-off efficiency play.

SWAPP AI

SWAPP is operational intelligence for architecture. Its agentic AI teammate, Frank, works inside Revit and ArchiCAD, reading and writing your live model to produce complete construction documents: dimensions, tags, views, sheets, schedules, and QA, all grounded in your own firm's standards. SWAPP automates up to 80% of documentation work across the project lifecycle, from schematic design through construction. Leading firms including Stantec, Page, HGA, and MOREgroup use SWAPP to deliver faster without adding headcount. Start with a low-commitment trial and watch Frank run on your own projects. ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, so your data stays yours.

Why this tool/tech was selected

MOREgroup chose SWAPP because it wanted to change the capacity of its teams, not just trial a tool. Delivering education, healthcare, and civic projects on schedule means absorbing constant design change while producing large volumes of accurate documentation. Much of that work is repetitive and rule-based, and doing it manually ties up skilled architects on production instead of design. SWAPP stood out because it executes that production directly inside Revit, against MOREgroup's own standards, and does it at a scale that can support many teams at once rather than a single project. The firm also valued that SWAPP fit into real, live work. Its agents operate in the models the teams already use, and outputs are reviewable, so MOREgroup could deploy automation across eleven parallel teams with confidence rather than caution. Just as important, the value compounds: as SWAPP learns the firm's standards and patterns across projects, it can reliably handle more of the production on each new engagement, which is exactly what a growing multi-brand practice needs. For MOREgroup's leadership, the deciding factor was that SWAPP could scale with the business, expanding output and protecting quality across a diverse portfolio, while letting the firm's talented people concentrate on the work that requires their greatest expertise.

Challenges the Client Faced before

Increase the capacity of project teams to manage change and deliver on schedule. Handle a growing pipeline of education, healthcare, and civic projects without adding proportional headcount. Keep documentation accurate and consistent across many teams and diverse project types. Free skilled architects from repetitive production so they can focus on design.

The previous method used

Before SWAPP, documentation and repetitive modeling were handled manually in Revit by each project team. Keeping pace with a growing pipeline and constant design change meant either adding people or stretching existing teams, both of which limited how much the firm could take on.

Time / Money saved & the Business Impact.

The business impact showed up as scale. Year over year, the amount of new square footage MOREgroup handled with AI grew roughly five and a half times, with more than eleven design teams working in parallel and over fifteen projects enhanced by the technology and still climbing. That is not a single-project efficiency; it is a change in the firm's production capacity. By moving repetitive documentation and modeling into SWAPP's AI agents, MOREgroup expanded what each team could deliver without a matching increase in headcount, which directly improves utilization and protects margins across a growing pipeline. Just as important, the firm reclaimed valuable time during the design phase, letting its architects redirect effort toward coordination, design quality, and the decisions that need human expertise. Because SWAPP executes against MOREgroup's own standards and learns from each project, documentation stayed accurate and consistent even as the volume grew and more teams came online. For a multi-brand practice delivering education, healthcare, and civic work, the strategic value is clear: the ability to take on more projects, adapt to change faster, and scale output across many teams at once, all while keeping the firm's most valuable people focused on the design work that differentiates MOREgroup in its markets.
