VDC Webinar Mini-Series: Using Trimble® SysQue® and Connect2Fab

December 10, 2021
Dustin Allen of Trimble and Trent Station of J.W. McClenahan discuss the advantages of using cloud-based collaboration tools that allow you to leverage your investment in BIM to streamline Revit prefabrication workflows.

Contractors cannot afford to be hindered by old processes in an industry more under pressure than ever to deliver projects on time and on budget.

Dustin Allen of Trimble and Trent Station of J.W. McClenahan discuss the advantages of using cloud-based collaboration tools that allow you to leverage your investment in BIM to streamline Revit prefabrication workflows and make data-driven decisions that boost overall efficiency.

This webinar explores J.W. McClenahan’s journey to a digitally integrated fabrication process with the VDC team. The session explores how they have evolved their VDC projects to utilize Autodesk Revit through Trimble®SysQue® for design and Connect2Fab for fabrication shop integration. Dustin and Trent will demonstrate how enabling accurate, actionable information to flow through your organization will result in enhanced communication, easy status tracking, efficient spool prefabrication and material procurement. The ability to leverage your model throughout your prefabrication and project execution processes is no longer a luxury; it’s a requisite and primary source of competitive advantage.
