In the promotion of DX (Digital Transformation) in public offices, the utilization of BIM (Building Information Modeling) is becoming increasingly important. The introduction of BIM contributes to improving operational efficiency, facilitating information sharing, and reducing costs. Graphisoft's various learning programs cover everything from the basics to advanced applications of BIM, supporting the enhancement of BIM skills among public office employees. Graphisoft's learning programs are the optimal solution to promote the use of BIM and accelerate DX initiatives. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Design and construction projects for public facilities - Utilization of 3D models in urban planning - Information sharing in infrastructure development 【Effects of Implementation】 - Operational efficiency through the acquisition of BIM skills - Smoother information sharing using 3D models - Cost reduction and quality improvement

In design offices, there is a demand for both the efficiency of design work and the maintenance of high-quality design. The introduction of BIM software is an effective means to streamline the design process and improve design quality. Archicad, with its intuitive operability and rich features, supports the efficiency of design work. By adopting Archicad, designers can focus more on creative tasks. 【Utilization Scenarios】 - Streamlining design work - Improving design quality - Information sharing within the team - Proposals to clients 【Effects of Implementation】 - Reduction in design time - Decrease in design errors - Smoother collaboration - Improvement in design quality

In the general contractor industry, smooth information sharing and collaboration with various stakeholders such as design offices, construction contractors, and clients are essential. The introduction of BIM is crucial for the overall efficiency of projects; however, issues may arise regarding data compatibility and the complexity of information sharing between different software. Archicad enables collaboration with various BIM software, facilitating smooth information exchange throughout the entire project, from design to construction and maintenance. Implementing Archicad reduces the risk of project delays and contributes to cost savings. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Collaboration with design offices - Collaboration with construction contractors - Information sharing with clients - Data integration with other BIM software 【Effects of Implementation】 - Increased efficiency in information sharing - Visualization of the entire project - Cost reduction - Improved quality

In a design office, visualizing the design is crucial for presentations to clients and consensus-building with stakeholders. Engaging visual expressions accurately convey the design intent and facilitate the smooth progress of the project. Archicad provides sophisticated visualization tools that bring design drawings to life and express the design impressively. This deepens the understanding of clients and stakeholders and supports smooth decision-making. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Presentations to clients - Design reviews - Initial design considerations 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Maximizes the appeal of the design - Smooth communication with stakeholders - Accurate transmission of design intent

In government agencies, information sharing in the design and construction process of public works is crucial. Delays and inconsistencies in information transmission among stakeholders can lead to project delays and increased costs. Archicad addresses these challenges by centrally managing design information and sharing it in real-time among stakeholders. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Design and construction projects in public works - Information sharing with relevant departments - Rapid information transmission during design changes 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Shortened project duration due to more efficient information sharing - Reduction of design errors and rework - Smoother communication among stakeholders

In the renovation industry, it is important to accurately understand existing buildings and share the image of the renovation with all stakeholders. Especially in the renovation of existing buildings with complex shapes and structures, accurate drawing creation and post-renovation interference checks are essential. Archicad solves these challenges by easily creating 3D models of existing buildings and visualizing renovation plans. Archicad contributes to the efficiency of renovation projects and enhances customer satisfaction. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Accurate 3D model creation of existing buildings - Visualization of renovation plans and sharing among stakeholders - Post-renovation interference checks 【Effects of Implementation】 - Reduction of design errors through accurate drawing creation - Clear explanations to customers using 3D models - Increased efficiency and cost reduction in renovation work
