CDV Systems has created a novel workflow process to extend CAD and BIM capabilities. So many facilities have made major commitments to CAD and BIM applications and nearly all have found real successes from pre-design all the way to construction. Yet, following this they are often left with non-standardized CAD projects, losses of data due to conversions, and bloated BIM data files. Valuable data can linger as an underused resource. CDV's process remedies concerns about CAD and BIM data conversion and handling issues. Among the features offered by the CDV Systems CAD, BIM and GIS workflow is a methodology that prolongs the life of design data. It repurposes legacy data for use in enterprise indoor GIS and facilities management applications. An independently operating centralized database warehouses CAD, BIM, tabular, and point cloud data. Object oriented database technology allows active and dormant design data to completely integrate with unconnected facility management data. A real-time bi-directional relationship between the two sources connects to enterprise GIS (including Esri) and Facility Management (including Maximo) solutions.GIS raises return of investment to its upper limits by extending its usefulness across an entire organization. CAD and BIM data brought into the GIS environment brings advanced capabilities to CMMS, work order, supply chain, space, and security management systems.
