Case Study: Kumpen improves communication and reduces costly mistakes with Ideate Software’s Ideate BIMLink

Kumpen - Customer Case Study

Kumpen, a construction and infrastructure company founded in 1945, needed a better way to collaborate on complex projects with architects and engineers who worked only in 2D. Using Ideate Software’s Ideate BIMLink with Autodesk Revit and Microsoft Excel, the team sought a communication workflow that would let non-Revit users review and update model data without losing integrity.

Ideate Software’s Ideate BIMLink enabled Kumpen to export Revit schedules to Excel, share them on SharePoint for concurrent editing, filter questions by assignee, and then import the updates back into Revit for clear change tracking. This improved communication, reduced errors before construction began, and helped Kumpen measure realized quantities more efficiently; the company said the process saved significant time and reduced costly mistakes, with one project involving more than 700 issues tracked through the workflow.
