dRofus is a BIM software for integrated planning, creation and management of building information throughout the building lifecycle. It was developed directly on behalf of public building owners. Core features in the software include capturing client requirements (EIR), validating design solutions (BIM) against client requirements, management of public standards and equipment planning. dRofus has strong ArchiCAD, Revit and IFC integration with bi-directional data sync capabilities.

Model data from each discipline is captured, together with planning data, non-geometric data and documents in a centralized database accessible to all project stakeholders via the dRofus desktop client and dRofus Web.

Typically stakeholders produce data using different software programs, that have different data schemas, with different filetypes, distributed across multiple servers, located in multiple different locations – and often this data is not re-usable by others. dRofus can consolidate disparate data sets and convert them into project information, insight and intelligence accessible to all project stakeholders.

Features:

  • Data-centric approach to BIM
    Plan, create and manage building data input from every stakeholder capturing relevant building/project information for all objects in BIM, cross domain, discipline and model; including data outside of the BIM platform.
  • Track changes
    All changes applied to dRofus are logged. The logs will show who changed what and when. Apply log notes and use changelists to communicate why changes were made. Advanced search capabilities make it easy to schedule or report relevant changes.
  • Design integration
    dRofus’ advanced plug-ins to Revit and ArchiCAD provide excellent workflow support for architects and engineers. Integrate program data with design for validation of building requirements and bidirectional synchronization between dRofus and project models.
  • Reports and exports
    dRofus has over 70 built-in PDF reports and Excel exports. Users can also utilize XF Designer, a third party report template authoring tool, to create specialized reports of their own. dRofus can also create custom PDF reports to fit the project/organization requirements.
  • Data standardization
    Capture client requirements and manage facility standards across multiple projects. Room templates and global items catalogue help standardize rooms and content to kick start new projects.
  • Secure and accessible
    Data is securely stored on a central server allowing users to connect and read data regardless of their physical location, all you need is a PC and internet connection. User access rights are controlled to ensure data security. Read and write permissions are controlled on a detailed level for all modules in dRofus.
