VIM: BIM Data for Power BI | AEC Reporting Tool

VIM Overview

VIM bridges BIM authoring tools and business intelligence. VIM Flex is a free Windows desktop application for opening, exploring, auditing, and comparing BIM models sourced from Revit, Navisworks, and IFC — generating element counts, flagging over-modeled components, and comparing model revisions. VIM Enterprise builds on this by automating BIM data pipelines and delivering interactive 3D reports inside Microsoft Power BI, with support for compliance checks and multi-source data integration (including Autodesk Construction Cloud, Assemble, and Excel). VIM's own data model keeps exported BIM data structured and linked to source elements, parameters, and room names, so dashboards stay traceable back to the model. Together, VIM Flex and VIM Enterprise let AEC teams move from raw model data to actionable Power BI reporting without manual data wrangling.
