Case Study: Quinn Evans modernizes building preservation with Autodesk Tandem

Realizing the potential of digital twins for building preservation and restoration efforts

Quinn Evans, an architecture firm specializing in historic preservation, faced the challenge of significant data loss when handing over 3D building models as static 2D drawings. This made the complex process of documenting and restoring historic buildings time-consuming and inefficient. They required a better way to centralize vast amounts of data to support accurate and authentic restoration efforts.

By implementing Autodesk Tandem, the vendor's digital twin platform, Quinn Evans streamlined its workflow. The solution created data-rich, interactive digital replicas of buildings, providing clients with instant access to decades of institutional knowledge. This resulted in more efficient operations, such as precisely pinpointing plumbing leaks to avoid damaging historic walls, which saves time, resources, and money. Autodesk Tandem transformed how the firm and its clients manage building information for preservation.
