Case Study: Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council achieves faster, more sustainable project delivery with Bluebeam Software

Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council boosts construction collaboration 5x with Bluebeam

Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council faced the challenge of replacing a dilapidated 1960s bus station with a modern, sustainable transport hub. This multi-year project required close collaboration with architect Capita and builder Morgan Sindall, a task complicated by remote work during the COVID-19 pandemic and constant design iterations due to new funding and sustainability goals. They turned to Bluebeam and its Revu software for a solution.

Bluebeam's software, including its Design Review and Quantity tools, became the central platform for the entire team, enabling real-time markups and a single source of truth. This digital collaboration made communication five times faster, accelerated design processes by 50%, and cut quantity takeoffs and estimation time by 80%. The solution allowed the team to adapt seamlessly to changes, finish on time despite the pandemic, and incorporate sustainable features that helped the award-winning project achieve a fossil-free operation.
