BIMPOWER not only enhances the design process within Revit but also brings the ordering and submittal processes for electrical products to the platform. Such products include busway, bus plugs, multi-family metering, panelboards, switchboards, automatic transfer switches, and transformers, to name a few.Building Information Modeling (BIM) has long been recognized for its significant benefits in construction projects, including cost and time savings. However, many BIM model libraries can be cumbersome, with manufacturers often taking a hands-off approach to the BIM design and coordination process.“Siemens is setting a new standard in electrical BIM design with BIMPOWER,” said McKenzie Baker, Innovation and Digital Business Manager at Siemens Smart Infrastructure USA. “This groundbreaking tool not only simplifies the design process but also integrates seamlessly with Autodesk Revit, providing engineers and contractors with a comprehensive solution for their power distribution needs.”With BIMPOWER, users can easily convert electrical system requirements into models and act upon real-time design feedback. Siemens product designs are the basis for the tool, but customizable model dimensions allow for flexibility and compatibility with all manufacturers. And when changes inevitably come along, BIMPOWER quickly evaluates and updates all the applicable equipment, saving users significant time and effort.Other tool features include the ability to automatically create a bill of material for all electrical equipment configured in the project, improving estimating efficiency. The tool also enables expedited submittal process times and facilitates accessing budget pricing and lead times through Siemens’ COMPAS® quotation platform. And as it does not have software licensing fees, BIMPOWER is accessible to all engineers, contractors, and other BIM stakeholders.Learn more about BIMPOWER, which is now available for download and use within Autodesk Revit.BIMPOWER and COMPAS are trademarks of Siemens and/or its affiliates in most countries.
