Services Provided

Through building a strong foundation of engineering expertise, a commitment to clients and close collaboration with industry experts, Bornhorst and Ward have established themselves as market leaders. They have been working on several high-profile projects including Queens Wharf, Northshore Hamilton, Yeerongpilly Green, Inner City South State Secondary College, Chester & Ella Apartments and Gladstone East Shores.

Customer Challenge

Bornhorst + Ward started using Bluebeam Revu for a variety of reasons. Previously, engineers marked up paper drawings, which ran the risk of losing copies and created difficulty in back checking.

Project Goals

Bornhorst + Ward aimed to streamline their design review and collaboration processes by adopting a digital solution that could address the inefficiencies associated with traditional paper-based markups.

Solutions

Revu is used to overlay drawings to assist with design and coordination. Bluebeam sets are used to collate all civil and structural drawings on the project. The Bluebeam set is the central markup set that all project team members use to markup changes and additions to the drawings.

Business Outcomes

Bluebeam Revu has allowed Bornhorst + Ward to go paperless while seamlessly transitioning from working in their former office, to working from home due to the pandemic, to now working in their brand new office. Eliminating paper means the office is used more effectively, with fewer square metres of floor space and more collaborative zones.

Conclusion

The new office has increased workstations by 10%, has much better collaborative spaces and reduced square footage. Using Revu means that Site Engineers and all other staff are clear on what the latest revisions are - Download the full Case Study to read all project outcomes and conclusions...
