BIM & Digital Twin Development, Digital Twins Technology Illustration, future of building construction, architects and engineers

Real-World Challenges We Solve

Even with BIM in place, companies often struggle to realize its full potential due to:

❌ Fragmented toolsets (Revit, Plant 3D, E3D) and inconsistent data standards

❌ Manual processes for spec extraction, BoM generation, and SAP integration

❌ Lack of version control, clash visibility, or data validation

❌ Missed opportunities for simulation, handover readiness, or real-time facility insights

 

✅ InStandart builds custom BIM automation tools and Digital Twin environments to bridge these gaps – streamlining workflows and connecting your models with procurement, scheduling, IoT, and maintenance systems.
