BIM Model Data and Insight Dashboard

ACC Dashboard Status Document

What?

  • Developed a Business Intelligence Dashboard using Power BI to visualize data extracted directly from a Building Information Model.
  • The dashboard provides high-level overview of model data and facilitates the discovery of actionable insights.
  • Focused on key areas like quantity takeoff, element status tracking, cost analysis, or scheduling metrics derived from the BIM model.
  • Aimed to enhance decision-making by making complex BIM data accessible and visual for project stakeholders.

How?

  • Extracted data from the BIM model using appropriate tools (e.g., Revit/Navisworks APIs, specific export formats, or third-party connectors).
  • Processed and cleaned the raw model data to ensure quality and relevance, selecting only the necessary parameters (e.g., type, material, volume, status).
  • Integrated the cleaned data into Power BI, establishing relationships and necessary calculations.
  • Designed and developed an interactive dashboard with visualizations to transform the data into meaningful insights.
