Overview

This app is an exercise in trying to improve the way we work in the AEC industry we made at Voyansi.

Drawings, models, and spreadsheets are a prerequisite for any stakeholder.

Document-based workflows are a bottleneck:

• Hard to organize

• Hard to access

• Hard to analyze

The average worker only spends 39% of their time performing their role-specific task

Instead, the time is spent:

• 28% in email

• 19% in searching and gathering documents

• 14% in communication and collaboration

We have the opportunity to improve productivity by at least 25% through purely data-driven methods

Users were able to:

• Understand how their spaces and partners are performing

• Find actionable insights in their data to make better business decisions.

• Stop more searching for information.

• Remove internal debates and replace them with decisions generated from data.

• Pair Automation + Integrations that all condense into a Platform

Automation

• Leveraging industry standards and expertise

• Translating logic-to code-to-design

• Standards on steroids translated directly to space

• Using the Layouts concept to automatically generate spaces with groups of elements that work together

Integration

• Building a reliable data stream

• Connecting Revit to online, cloud-based data

• Harvesting project snapshots at any point - both geometry and data

Platform

• Creating project assumptions (program surface, number of seats or desks, thermal efficiency, rooms, whatever you can measure!)

• Ingesting real design data and storing project data and geometry snapshots. Viewing all of it on any device with just a web browser.

• Comparing assumptions with actual design to measure performance in any aspect

• Harvesting data and geometry snapshots at any point in the project allowed for performance tracking against any assumption, at any point of a project's lifecycle - effectively enabling data-backed decision-making progress.
