Products and services

• Civil3D Tools A package of plug-in tools for Autodesk Civil 3D that facilitates infrastructure design work. The first included tool, "Section view dimension," calculates and displays distances on section views based on corridor selection and codes using a user-selected dimension style, providing clear distance markings and error detection. Targeted at civil engineering firms and infrastructure designers.
• BIM Consulting Services Consulting services to help infrastructure clients achieve best results in BIM projects, including optimal path solutions for overcoming project challenges in road design and infrastructure modeling.
• Dynamo Script Development Custom development of Dynamo scripts for automation and optimization of BIM modeling processes in infrastructure projects, used by civil engineers and BIM managers.
• Civil3D Subassembly Creation Creation of custom Civil3D subassemblies for specialized infrastructure design requirements that are not available in the standard Civil 3D library.
• Autodesk .NET Plug-in Development (C#) Custom Autodesk .NET plug-in development in C# to automate specific processes within Autodesk software for infrastructure engineering clients.
• 3D Visualizations for Infrastructure Projects 3D visualization services for infrastructure projects using 3ds Max, InfraWorks, and additional software to produce presentation-ready assets for end clients.

Quantifiable outcome

• Time savings through automation of manual tasks in Civil 3D workflows

Direct peers

• IMAGINiT Technologies: IMAGINiT is an Autodesk Platinum partner delivering BIM consulting, training, and custom software solutions to engineering firms, directly comparable to BIM Advisor's consulting-plus-tools model for Autodesk customers.
• Ideate Software: Ideate Software develops a suite of Autodesk Revit and Civil 3D add-ins and provides AEC-focused consulting, making it a near-direct peer in selling Autodesk-platform plugins plus services to infrastructure and building designers.
• Avail Infrastructure Solutions: Avail provides engineering services and digital tooling around BIM and infrastructure design workflows, overlapping with BIM Advisor's combination of domain expertise and software-enabled service delivery.

Broad incumbents

• Procore Technologies: Procore is a broad construction management platform increasingly integrating BIM workflows, relevant as a large incumbent adjacent to BIM Advisor's infrastructure design focus.
• Trimble (Trimble Civil Engineering): Trimble offers Business Center, TBC, and infrastructure construction software competing with Autodesk Civil 3D in road and corridor design, representing a broader incumbent in BIM-for-infrastructure tooling.
• Graphisoft (ArchiCAD): Graphisoft's ArchiCAD is a BIM authoring tool under the Nemetschek Group serving architectural and increasingly infrastructure-adjacent workflows, making it a broad incumbent in the same BIM software category.
• Solibri (Nemetschek): Solibri provides BIM model checking and quality assurance widely used in BIM projects; while its scope differs, it overlaps with BIM Advisor's BIM-for-infrastructure quality and workflow improvement focus.
• Autodesk: Autodesk is the platform vendor for Civil 3D, Revit, and InfraWorks on which BIM Advisor's plugins and visualizations are built; it sets roadmap priorities that can either validate or subsume the niche BIM Advisor addresses.
• Bentley Systems: Bentley provides OpenRoads, OpenUtilities, and iModelHub for infrastructure BIM, making it a broad incumbent alternative platform for the same civil engineering and infrastructure project use cases BIM Advisor targets.

Emerging players

• KobiLabs (Civil 3D toolkit): KobiLabs develops productivity toolkits and plugins for Autodesk Civil 3D users in road and infrastructure design, directly comparable as a small emerging Autodesk-ecosystem plugin developer serving the same civil engineering niche.
