A Swiss engineering firm uses BuildingOne to specifically monitor the data quality of its 3D model during the planning phase. The result: missing information is identified at an early stage – before it becomes a problem.
The challenge
During planning, certain properties in the 3D model must be fully completed for each service phase. In practice, however, it is easy to forget or overlook individual fields – with potential consequences for quality, coordination and handover.
The solution with BuildingOne
BuildingOne precisely defines which property in which planning phase is considered a mandatory field. After synchronisation with the 3D model, the user calls up the report and selects the desired service phase.
The result: all fields that have been defined as mandatory for this phase but have not yet been filled in are immediately highlighted in the report. Missing information can thus be added in a targeted and efficient manner – directly in BuildingOne or in the 3D model.
Process at a glance
✔️ Define mandatory fields – per property and service phase in BuildingOne
✔️ Synchronisation – Data from the 3D model is compared
✔️ View report – Select service phase
✔️ Identify missing data – Identify marked fields at a glance
✔️ Touch-ups – in BuildingOne or directly in the 3D model
The result
With this approach, the engineering firm has created a clear, reproducible process for ensuring data quality in the model at the appropriate stage – without manual searching and without uncertainty.
Conclusion
This project exemplifies how flexible and powerful the reports in BuildingOne are. What has been implemented here for data control can be transferred to many other use cases – individually adapted to your project and your processes.
