SNHA, a Woolpert Company, cuts data-center documentation from two weeks to under 48 hours with SWAPP

• 2 weeks of work done in under 48 hrs
• 7x reduction in documentation tasks
• Consistent detailing across a campus

SNHA chose SWAPP because mission-critical design lives or dies on consistency and speed, and manual documentation was limiting both. Data-center and infrastructure projects require the same detailing repeated accurately across many buildings, and doing that by hand consumed enormous amounts of skilled time while still leaving room for inconsistency. SWAPP was the right fit because it automates that production directly inside Revit, using the Revit API and the firm's own standards, so the outputs are both fast and consistent with how SNHA works. The firm also valued that SWAPP let it examine and encode its own standards through machine learning, effectively turning tacit practice into an enforced, repeatable process. That mattered for a practice where reinforcing its position at the forefront of the AEC industry depends on reliable quality at scale. Working with SWAPP on live projects, alongside Woolpert, gave the team a way to not just understand but embrace the technology on real work rather than in a sandbox. And because the value compounds as SWAPP learns more of the firm's standards, the efficiency carries forward across a portfolio of similar, repetitive projects. For SNHA's leadership, the deciding factors were speed, accuracy, and the ability to free architects for the creative and strategic work where the firm's true value lies.

Reduce time-consuming manual documentation to accelerate project timelines. Maintain consistent detailing and accuracy across many buildings on a large campus. Handle the repetitive drawing production of mission-critical work without inconsistency. Free architects to focus on the creative and strategic aspects of design.

Before SWAPP, documentation for these mission-critical projects was produced manually in Revit, with the same detailing and drawing production repeated by hand across many buildings. That approach could take up to two weeks per project and tied up skilled architects on repetitive work.

The business impact was a step-change in delivery speed. Work that used to take up to two weeks per project was completed in under 48 hours, and the number of manual documentation tasks fell roughly seven times through SWAPP's automation of the Revit workflow. Across a large campus of multiple buildings, detailing stayed consistent and accurate, which is essential in mission-critical design where errors are costly. By compressing production time so dramatically, SNHA accelerated project timelines and freed its architects to spend more time on the creative and strategic aspects of the work, which is where the firm creates the most value for its clients. The engagement also had a strategic dimension: by seeing its own standards through the lens of machine learning, the firm reinforced consistency across its portfolio and strengthened its position at the forefront of the AEC industry. Because SWAPP executes against SNHA's standards and integrates with the tools the team already uses, the gains are repeatable across the firm's pipeline of similar projects rather than a one-time result. For leadership, the value is clear: faster delivery, consistent quality at scale, and the ability to redirect skilled people toward higher-value design work, all of which improve both competitiveness and margins on demanding mission-critical projects.
