<div>&nbsp;</div>
As a former construction tech founder who built SaaS products, I've experienced the exhilarating journey of bringing innovative tech to life. I vividly remember the breakthrough moments, but also the times when our incredible solution wasn't connecting with our audience as quickly as we hoped. It wasn't just about the product itself; it was about the profound adoption and impact of when we truly started strategizing its market introduction. Many founders, especially in software or deep tech, have an incredible opportunity to redefine their path: they can transform GTM from a post-development task into a foundational launchpad for success. What if embracing this early focus is the most powerful move you can make?
<div style="line-height: 1.5;">&nbsp;</div>
<h3 style="line-height: 1.5;">Are you truly uncovering your customer's deepest aspirations and challenges even before your design begins? </h3>
Imagine co-creating a solution that feels like a natural extension of your customer's work. What if you could gather firsthand insights from their daily realities, not just assumptions, months before your MVP takes shape? Moving beyond surface-level surveys allows you to tap into the core motivations that inspire adoption, especially for complex software with intricate integration potential. Think of the innovation sparked by an early, unfiltered conversation with a future user eager for a transformative digital tool.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="line-height: 1.5;">Is your message cutting through the noise and sparking genuine connection long before launch day? </h3>
In today's dynamic digital landscape, a clear, compelling story is your greatest asset. Your vision for a new analytics platform or project management tool might be perfectly clear within your engineering team, but what if you could refine that message early on to speak directly to a project manager's most critical needs on a bustling construction site? Imagine testing and perfecting this narrative before significant development resources are invested, ensuring maximum impact upon release.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="line-height: 1.5;">Are you strategically choosing the most impactful channels, building authentic pathways from your earliest stages? </h3>
While tech trends offer exciting possibilities, the most successful software go-to-market strategies aren't merely about following what's new. They're built on a deep, early understanding of where your specific, often niche, audience naturally seeks out new solutions. What if you could identify and engage with your future customers where they truly live and breathe, ensuring your innovative digital product connects precisely where it matters most, right from day one?
&nbsp;
<h2 style="line-height: 1.5;">Unlocking Exponential Growth: The Power of Proactive GTM </h2>
Consider the immense potential from a software perspective: companies that master proactive&mdash;and, critically, early&mdash;go-to-market strategies unlock incredible opportunities. They maximize their marketing investments, connect deeply with users, accelerate revenue growth, inspire their teams, and decisively lead their market segments. This isn't just about avoiding pitfalls; it's about building a robust foundation where every feature rollout is celebrated, and every capital investment drives widespread adoption.
Here's what truly excites me as a founder: the amplified opportunity. Every day your go-to-market strategy is actively evolving&mdash;and integrated from the outset&mdash;is another day you're building market leadership, nurturing invaluable customer relationships, and establishing yourself as the undeniable category leader. Imagine the competitive edge gained when your software development cycles are perfectly synchronized with market anticipation and demand.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="line-height: 1.5;">1. Begin with a clear-eyed vision of your strategic position, from the earliest concept phase </h3>
What aspects of your approach are currently driving significant value, and how can you amplify them? Successful go-to-market strategies are built on leaders who cultivate genuine progress, especially when launching a digital product designed with the market in mind, not in isolation.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="line-height: 1.5;">2. Cultivate profound customer understanding, before you even sketch your first wireframe </h3>
What if you could personally engage with early adopters to uncover their deepest needs and aspirations? Or better yet, gain invaluable insights from potential customers who are eager for a transformative software solution? Their perspectives on why an innovative approach will resonate can be more powerful than extensive market research, saving millions and inspiring a groundbreaking product.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="line-height: 1.5;">3. Validate your vision with agile, insightful experiments as early as possible </h3>
Instead of relying on one large, costly product launch, imagine the power of testing different messaging concepts or even interactive mock-ups with targeted audiences before committing to a full build. The early feedback, even from digital prototypes, provides invaluable guidance, illuminating the most promising path to scale.
&nbsp;
<h3 style="line-height: 1.5;">4. Harmonize your entire organization around the customer journey from day one </h3>
Is your engineering team crafting solutions precisely for the market your sales team is engaging? Is your marketing team narrating the same compelling story as your customer support? A unified message across all touchpoints creates a seamless experience, attracting prospects and boosting conversion rates, especially when presenting a sophisticated software solution that empowers and educates customers.
&nbsp;
<blockquote>
&ldquo;The companies that truly thrive are not just those with exceptional products&mdash;they are the ones that inherently understand from the very beginning how to powerfully connect their innovative solutions with their customers' most urgent needs and ambitious goals.&rdquo;
</blockquote>
&nbsp;
So here's the question that fuels immense success, particularly for software and deep tech founders: Are you ready to elevate your go-to-market strategy from a reactive checklist after product completion to the dynamic, foundational competitive advantage it truly is, integrating it into every single step of development? Your next quarter's triumphs&mdash;and your team's unwavering confidence&mdash;hinge on how you answer that question today, transforming your tomorrow.

SaaS Founders: Are You Timing Your GTM Right?

<div>Engineering automation has moved from side scripts to everyday workflow. Teams want fewer handoffs and a way to turn hard-won know-how into tools they can share.To see what&rsquo;s practical, aec+tech spoke with <a href="../../../tools/viktor" target="_blank" rel="noopener">VIKTOR</a>&rsquo;s CPO, Stijn Jansen, about the new App Builder&mdash;an AI-assisted environment for generating browser-based apps with optional low/full-code edits. Built on VIKTOR&rsquo;s platform with versioning and private distribution, it aims to turn calculators, checks, and post-processing into governed, reusable apps. In this interview, Jansen explains why they built it, what sets it apart, and how engineers can get started.</div>
<figure class="image"><img src="https://aecplustech.s3.amazonaws.com/blog/7e24c57b-8977-487c-add2-7bc6a684ecb4.png" alt="Stijn Jansen, CPO at VIKTOR" width="200">
<figcaption>Stijn Jansen, CPO at VIKTOR</figcaption>
</figure>
<div>1) So, what exactly is the App Builder?</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>The App Builder is an assistant that helps engineers rapidly create their own apps. From quick calculators to complex workflows. No coding required. Apps are easy to build, share, and integrate into existing projects.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>2) What challenges inspired the creation of the App Builder?</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Engineers across industries still spend too much time on manual tasks: copy-pasting data, repeating calculations, and handling disconnected models. Instead of solving real problems, their time is consumed by manual work. When they want to improve their way of working, they often depend on scarce developers or IT teams, creating bottlenecks that slow innovation.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>3) Why rethink how engineers work?</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Until now, automation and app-building have been limited to people with programming skills. But most engineers are no coding experts. Nevertheless, they know their own problems best and should be able to create the automation tools they need, when they need them. Empowering them to build their own apps makes automation and innovation part of everyday engineering.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>4) What gap does the App Builder fill?</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>Coding environments are too technical for most domain experts, low-code platforms often produce &ldquo;toy apps,&rdquo; and standalone AI assistants lack governance and integration. The App Builder combines no-code, low-code, and full-code options in one secure, transparent, and enterprise-ready environment built for engineering. </div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>5) How does it empower engineers?</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>The App Builder gives geotechnical, structural, mechanical, and environmental engineers a no-code environment to automate tasks, set up configurators, and link software. Direct integrations with tools like Revit, PLAXIS, Rhino, SCIA, ETABS, SAP2000, Grasshopper, Excel, and CAD platforms eliminate manual file handling and streamline workflows.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>6) What makes the App Builder unique?
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" style="font-size: 16px; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" aria-level="1">The VIKTOR platform is built by engineers, for engineers.&nbsp;</li>
<li dir="ltr" style="font-size: 16px; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" aria-level="1">Direct integrations with the tools you actually use (Revit, PLAXIS, Rhino, SCIA, etc.).&nbsp;</li>
<li dir="ltr" style="font-size: 16px; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" aria-level="1">Versioning, testing, and audit trails built in.&nbsp;</li>
<li dir="ltr" style="font-size: 16px; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" aria-level="1">Security and compliance from day one.</li>
</ul>
Unlike other no-code tools, the App Builder combines speed with enterprise-level quality assurance and governance.</div>
<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div>7) What kinds of problems can engineers solve with the App Builder?</div>
<div>
Short answer: anything from quick calculators to governed, shareable workflows&mdash;without waiting on scarce developer time.
Typical use cases
<ul data-start="221" data-end="540">
<li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" data-start="221" data-end="290">
Structural: build load/sizing calculators; rapid code checks.
</li>
<li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" data-start="291" data-end="381">
Geotechnical: automate design checks and reporting (e.g., PLAXIS post-processing).
</li>
<li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" data-start="382" data-end="462">
Mechanical: create product/configuration tools and parametric selectors.
</li>
<li style="font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif;" data-start="463" data-end="540">
Environmental: run scenario analyses and generate standardized reports.
</li>
</ul>
Concrete example&mdash;turn analysis into a web app
Turn a recurring data-analysis task into a browser app: upload measurement or simulation data (e.g., an Excel file), run calculations, and instantly produce plots and a PDF report for teammates. For instance, to read acceleration data from Excel, you&rsquo;d specify the expected column names once; the App Builder handles parsing, validation, and output each time.

8) Can you share a real-world use case of the App Builder?
For example, at KBR, engineers have created everything from simple unit converters to advanced apps automating complex processes. These apps eliminate repetitive, error-prone tasks and make sophisticated workflows accessible to entire teams. KBR even runs workshops to spread the App Builder across their organization.
9) How does this fit into VIKTOR&rsquo;s vision of AI in engineering?
Our vision is simple: app-building should be part of every engineer&rsquo;s work. AI should help them move faster in a transparent, secure, and compliant way. The App Builder is the foundation of this vision: a place where engineers use their domain knowledge to create solutions, supported by AI and governed by enterprise standards.
10) What&rsquo;s next?
We&rsquo;re making app-building even faster with deeper AI assistance. Not just generating code but also testing and validating apps. More integrations are coming, and AI will increasingly become a transparent, reliable partner in everyday engineering practice.
11) How can engineers get started?
The easiest way is to experiment directly on the VIKTOR platform and just try to build a small app first. At the end of October, we&rsquo;re also hosting a live webinar where engineers can see the App Builder in action, explore real-world applications, and even try building themselves.
App-building is no longer limited to IT or coders. Every engineer can now create, share, and improve their own workflows with the freedom to innovate, and the enterprise-level control to ensure security and quality!

Systems optimization for design and collaboration workflows

The firm emphasizes proactive management and long-term alignment rather than reactive support. Client engagements are typically structured as a joint effort rather than transactional vendor relationships.

Strategic Orientation

A defining characteristic of Flying Buttress is its emphasis on executive-level thinking. The firm’s approach treats technology as a business enabler, not merely a utility. This includes:

Translating technical risks into business risk

Supporting leadership decision-making around growth, mergers, and operational scale

Helping firms modernize legacy environments without disrupting productivity

Prioritizing resilience, security posture, and operational maturity

This orientation makes Flying Buttress particularly relevant to firm owners, managing partners, and C-suite leaders who view technology as part of their competitive advantage.

Reputation and Client Relationships

Flying Buttress has built its reputation through long-term client relationships rather than high-volume churn. Clients tend to stay engaged because the firm demonstrates a clear understanding of their industry, their workflows, and their strategic pressures. The company’s growth has been driven primarily through reputation, referrals, and repeat engagements.

Leadership and Perspective

Flying Buttress’s leadership brings both technical experience and a broader intellectual perspective to the firm’s work. This informs Flying Buttress’s positioning not just as a technical provider, but as a thoughtful participant in conversations about the future of work, professional services, technology ethics, and digital transformation.

Market Position

Flying Buttress occupies a deliberate niche:
Not a mass-market MSP.
Not a commodity helpdesk provider.
But a focused, specialized technology partner for AED firms that need depth, not volume.

This positioning allows us to compete on expertise, clarity, and trust rather than price compression.

Secude is headquartered in Lucerne, Switzerland and is a leading global provider of data protection and digital rights management solutions that serve the AEC industry.  Secude’s solutions help extend corporate data governance and data loss prevention (DLP) to CAD and related construction files through the integration with popular systems that work with Microsoft Purview Information Protection (MPIP).  This protection remains attached to the protected files wherever they travel and provides a means for file tracking through real-time activity logs and prevents unauthorized access through encryption technology.  The access controls provided through protection policies can be defined to grant specific users very granular access to various application functions when working with shared documents.       
Secude solutions also provide capabilities for applying digital watermarking, metadata implantation and digital signing technology to CAD and related construction documents.   Using digital watermarking, metadata implantation and digital signing in combination creates many possibilities for proving non-repudiated document ownership and validating the intended parties that documents are shared with.  While this doesn’t completely limit access, it does provide a way to determine accountability should sensitive filed be leaked.
Secude solutions provide additional capabilities for automating compliance markings for CAD and other construction related files.  This includes specific compliance markings for Export Controlled Information (ECI), Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) for CMMC compliance and can also incorporate dynamic watermarking to include the last user to edit the file with a timestamp.
Secude's application suite provides data protection and digital rights management for CAD and other construction related files in several ways:
HaloCAD - Apply Microsoft Purview Information Protection (MPIP) sensitivity labels and AES encryption directly to files from within the CAD user interface. This is seamless to the user and allows CAD files to become classified and operate within the Purview Data Governance platform to apply Data Loss Prevention (DLP) policies that ensure data can't be stolen. MPIP sensitivity labels also provide rules that can be enforced within the CAD user interface and provide an additional layer of access control defined at the user or group-level by restricting functions such as edit, export and print. The AES encryption that is applied by MPIP also ensures that files are useless to would-be hackers that managed to get them outside of the enterprise. 
HaloSHARE - A workflow tool that performs batch transformation of CAD, MS Office and PDF files to apply various levels of identification and protection. HaloSHARE digital rights management methods include document compliance marking, metadata implantation and digital document signing that can be performed batch style and deliver the transformed documents to multiple local or Cloud data stores including Autodesk Docs. Document marking can include standard watermarking or specially formatted text to identify Export Controlled Information (ECI), Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) or other special compliance markings. Metadata implantation and digital signing ensure that documents can be traced to the original owners or to the parties they were shared with. HaloSHARE MPIP methods can be used to bulk process files to apply sensitivity labels, encrypt or decrypt files and deliver them to multiple local or Cloud-hosted destination storage locations.

History

In 1898, Charles Henry Page and his brother Louis Page formed Page Brother, Architects and focused on designing courthouses and public schools. Charles's son, Charles Henry Page Jr., joined the firm following Louis's death in 1934. A year later, Louis's son, Louis Charles Page Jr., partnered with his college roommate, Louis Southerland, to form the Austin-based firm Page and Southerland. Louis's brother, George Page, would join the firm in 1939 and the name changed to Page Southerland Page. The firm changed its name to just Page in 2013.

In 2022, Page bought the architectural and planning firm, EYP, merging the former Albany-based company's national offices and design portfolio. In 2023, Page acquired Davis Brody Bond, a former New York City-based architecture firm with notable projects including the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, the Portico Gallery at the Frick Collection, and the National Museum of African American History and Culture.

As of 2024, Page operated 21 offices in the US, Mexico, and the United Arab Emirates.

The Context
Despite decades of investment in BIM, architectural documentation remains heavily manual. Teams continue to spend significant time on repetitive production tasks, manual QA/QC, and enforcing standards across drawings, views, and schedules.
At scale, this creates inefficiency, late-stage rework, and coordination risk, while contributing to burnout across documentation teams. Existing automation is often fragmented or difficult to apply consistently within live project models, limiting its effectiveness in everyday production work.
SketchPro is being actively deployed at top architecture firms to address this gap by embedding AI directly into architectural documentation workflows.
The Question
How can AI support architectural documentation&ndash; QA/QC, standards alignment, and repetitive production work&ndash; while keeping architects in control, preserving authorship, and respecting firm-specific standards and workflows?
The Approach
SketchPro is an AI documentation copilot embedded directly within Revit, designed to operate on live project models, views, schedules, and sheets. The system is developed around three core principles:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
No workflow disruption Al actions occur inside the same Revit environment already used by project teams for documentation. No exporting, syncing, or parallel tools required.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Architect-in-the-loop control All actions are previewed, reviewable, and reversible, ensuring professional judgment remains central to decision-making.
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Firm-specific intelligence Rather than applying generic rules, the system adapts to project standards, naming conventions, and documentation logic defined by each practice with an &ldquo;AI Knowledge Base&rdquo; set up by admins from each firm.
</li>
</ul>
The Collaboration Model
SketchPro is being deployed in collaboration with architecture firms working across a range of scales, typologies, and geographic locations, including educational, multifamily, and commercial projects. Ongoing collaboration ensures the platform addresses real documentation pain points such as QA/QC consistency, annotation cleanup, and standards alignment within live projects.
The Results
Across partner firms, teams report:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
Standardized preferences across projects with AI
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
30% reduction in documentation time across major tasks like sheet creation, dimensioning, schedules, and QA/QC
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
20% more capacity to do more projects with their current team
</li>
</ul>
AI is experienced as a support system rather than a replacement. Junior staff report increased confidence and productivity, while senior staff retain full control over technical decisions.
Key Takeaways
Successful AI adoption in architecture depends less on automation alone and more on customization, transparency, and trust in the technology.
By embedding AI directly into documentation workflows and aligning it with the realities of architectural practice, SketchPro illustrates how AI can strengthen existing processes rather than disrupt them, supporting efficiency, quality, and professional judgment.

This case study showcases how MeltCode, MeltPlan’s Code Research AI, is helping architectural firms dramatically reduce the time, cost, and uncertainty associated with building code compliance. Building code research is one of the most time-consuming and high-risk parts of design, often requiring architects to spend 50–300 hours per project flipping through codebooks, navigating keyword searches, and chasing endless cross-references just to ensure they interpret requirements correctly. 

The case study highlights measurable organizational impact reported by firms after adopting MeltCode, including 30% less spend on code consultants, 45% faster code research, and 25% fewer inquiries from junior architects, meaning fewer escalations to principals and senior staff. 

A key takeaway is that MeltCode is built differently from generic AI tools like ChatGPT, which often hallucinate or cite incorrect sources—forcing architects to double-check everything and sometimes restart research from scratch. MeltCode solves this by using an AI system that only reads building codes (not the internet) and comprehensively interprets code content, including tables and images. It delivers answers in 1–4 minutes, supported by confidence scores and detailed reasoning where each step is backed by direct code citations. 

To validate performance, MeltCode was continuously tested using building inspector exams, where it achieved 95%+ scores across multiple inspector exam types, reinforcing its accuracy and construction-aware reasoning.

MeltPlan is the AI-native planning engine for the built environment, built to help architects, engineers, and contractors plan projects better &mdash; earlier, faster, and with far more confidence. Construction planning today is still fragmented across disconnected tools, spreadsheets, PDFs, and tribal knowledge. Teams are forced to manually connect decisions across code compliance, estimating, scheduling, and value engineering, which leads to slow iterations, missed scope, costly rework, and avoidable project risk.
MeltPlan solves this by creating a unified planning platform that connects the four planning pillars that shape every project: code compliance, cost, schedule, and value engineering. Instead of operating like a black-box AI assistant, MeltPlan is built for accuracy and transparency. It understands real AEC context &mdash; including codes and standards, building assemblies and elements, quantities and scopes, and project-specific conditions. Every output is designed to be defensible, with clear assumptions, step-by-step reasoning, and verifiable sources.
At the core of MeltPlan is the belief that planning isn&rsquo;t just producing a schedule or an estimate &mdash; it&rsquo;s making the right decisions early, before mistakes become expensive field problems. MeltPlan helps teams move from &ldquo;searching and guessing&rdquo; to &ldquo;knowing and deciding.&rdquo;
Today, MeltPlan offers two core products:
<h3 data-start="1400" data-end="1417">Melt Code</h3>
Melt Code is the first building code research AI built to make compliance transparent and decision-ready. Instead of giving a generic answer, Melt Code provides project-specific compliance requirements along with a step-by-step reasoning trail and direct citations to every relevant code section. It also maps out Compliance Paths, guiding architects and engineers through multiple valid routes to compliance based on project variables like occupancy, construction type, sprinkler conditions, height/area thresholds, and fire ratings. Melt Code understands exceptions, cross-references, tables, diagrams, and code math &mdash; and can generate project-specific compliance illustrations to make requirements easier to interpret and communicate. It also includes workflow tools like Projects and Checklists, helping firms capture institutional knowledge and standardize compliance across teams.
<h3 data-start="2326" data-end="2346">Melt Takeoff</h3>
Melt Takeoff is an AI-assisted takeoff service designed for contractors and estimators who need speed without sacrificing trust. It combines AI vision for fast quantity extraction with onshore, field-experienced senior estimators who verify outputs and add detailed allowances for scope not shown on drawings. Melt Takeoff detects hundreds of building elements, flags drawing/spec conflicts, structures takeoffs in MasterFormat&reg;, UniFormat&reg;, or custom standards, and delivers interactive outputs with sheet-linked traceability and clean Excel exports. It enables faster bids, fewer missed scope items, and more confident pricing.
Together, Melt Code and Melt Takeoff form the foundation of the MeltPlan platform &mdash; a connected planning engine that brings clarity, speed, and trust to preconstruction decision-making.

Lloyd Architects is a Salt Lake City–based architecture firm of 15–20 employees focused on custom residential design, historic preservation, adaptive reuse, and hospitality work. As the firm grew, leadership wanted stronger financial clarity and better operational control without sacrificing the small-firm culture that keeps the team close to clients and to each other. After years of using ArchiOffice for time tracking and invoicing, Lloyd Architects adopted BQE CORE to modernize how the business runs day to day and to create a more reliable foundation for planning and profitability. With several years of data now in CORE, the firm relies on reporting to understand project performance, track where time is being spent by project phase and type, and support employee reviews and long-term staffing decisions. CORE also plays a practical role in monthly operations, including invoicing workflows, payroll support, and clearer visibility into the project pipeline so leadership can plan ahead with confidence. A major improvement came from built-in ACH payments, which reduced payment processing time by 75 percent and eliminated the hassle of paper checks and bank trips. More than half of monthly payments now arrive via ACH, often before the due date, which improves cash flow and reduces administrative drag. Overall, CORE helps letting the firm operate at a higher level while staying personal, organized, and sustainable.

Goldstream Engineering Inc. (GEI) is a civil engineering firm based in Fairbanks, Alaska, serving both rural and urban communities across the state. The firm provides structural, geotechnical, and environmental design services, along with construction management, supporting projects such as utility infrastructure planning, water and wastewater systems, municipal and rural roads, buildings, airports, erosion control, site development, and off-grid work. Before adopting BQE CORE, GEI managed bookkeeping in QuickBooks while relying on a separate custom-built website database and email to handle project tasks, time entry, and project tracking. Over time, that patchwork system became a bottleneck. It required ongoing IT maintenance, and frequent website crashes and data loss disrupted workflows, slowed reporting, and created frustration across the team.

GEI needed a more reliable, all-in-one platform that could consolidate time and expense tracking, project management, billing, and reporting, while also improving accessibility for staff working in the office, from home, or in the field. After several months of evaluating options and running trials, GEI selected BQE CORE because it met their feature requirements and was more affordable than competing solutions. With CORE, the firm centralized key project and financial information, reduced reliance on multiple disconnected systems, and improved remote access through the mobile app. CORE also made it easier to gather information for billing and reporting and helped GEI produce reports faster, supporting smoother operations and better coordination across the team.

The KFC Outlet located in Kentucky is a single-storey, 4,255 SF retail restaurant undergoing a strategic redesign to align with the brand’s modern visual identity and functional standards. While the architectural language remains consistent with KFC’s established design vocabulary, the project places strong emphasis on refreshing the exterior environment. Key architectural features include the iconic KFC logo integration, stylized decorative windows with shading elements, and distinctive stack walls that enhance the façade. The client finalized the internal layout in advance, enabling AEODC to focus on elevating the exterior architectural expression and ensuring the updated elevations met both brand and structural requirements.

Drawing from our extensive experience in hospitality and QSR BIM projects, AEODC was entrusted with delivering the complete architectural BIM package at LOD 350 on BIM 360 within a tight timeline of under three weeks. Our scope involved developing a precise Revit architecture model of the as-built conditions, enhancing it with the proposed architectural upgrades, and extracting a comprehensive CD set including plans, elevations, sections, and architectural details.

The project came with notable challenges, primarily the accelerated timeline and the requirement to model intricate parametric families such as decorative windows, sun-shades, louvers, cornices, and other façade elements. Additionally, the project needed to be delivered in two distinct phases—existing and new—which demanded exceptional accuracy, planning, and communication to prevent clashes or misalignments during the redesign process.

To overcome these constraints, AEODC implemented optimized workflows by reusing and customizing previously developed stack wall families from other KFC projects, ensuring consistency and speed. Close collaboration between AEODC’s design team and on-site stakeholders led to proactive issue resolution and enabled the early delivery of the existing phase, giving the client ample time for on-site verification before green-lighting the new design phase.

Through strategic coordination, rigorous QA processes, and efficient BIM execution, AEODC successfully delivered a high-accuracy architectural Revit model that supported seamless phased construction, reduced rework, and helped the client achieve a faster, more cost-effective build cycle.

The future of coordination lies in clash prevention. Clash Preventor is an Autodesk Revit add-in that allows the user to prevent clashes by running clash prevention tests while he/she works. The tool automatically tests modified elements for clashes. A manual mode also exists allowing the user to check selected elements, visible in view elements, or all elements for clashes as well. The user can filter elements by category, knowing that linked elements and IFC links are supported by this tool as well. When clashing elements are detected, the user is allowed to navigate and visualize clashes in 3D by automatically creating a section box around the elements, and has the ability to tile all open views when he proceeds to solve the clashes for a better visualization. The built-in Clash Browser automatically generates a Clash Report that simplifies the clash resolution process, and that can be exported to an Excel spreadsheet, which can be also imported later on. The tool also includes a Navisworks Report Import mode where users can import HTML clash detection reports generated by Navisworks straight into Revit for an easier visualization and clash resolution process. This tool is a huge time saver as it prevents clashes without wasting the user's time, and because it helps reduce clashes which in turn reduces the time usually wasted on detecting and solving clashes through conventional clash detection tests. Autodesk Revit 2018-2019-2020-2021-2022 editions are all supported.
