The DDC (Data Driven Construction) Excel Plugin is a game-changer, transforming proprietary CAD models into open source data frames for seamless integration and AI interaction. It significantly improves workflows and offers exceptional value for money by saving time and boosting productivity. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enhance their projects with data-driven insights.

DataDrivenConstruction Excel Add-In is a wonderful additional tool to help extract data from CAD (BIM) Revit, IFC, DWG files in order to move forward with information validation processes in your workflows.Additionally the possibility to turn the long complex Excel file into easily human-and machine-readable files keep the Add-In modern and compatible with recent developments within IT. As we move forward in the industry it is crucial to think about diversity of data and how to find the most suitable outputs in order to keep said data valuable, up to date and usable.An influential tool with a user-friendly interface helping the construction industry move towards the future!

This is a fantastic tool, haven't seen one like this in a long time. In this era, we have countless tools and methods for creating models, drawings, tables, and other forms of data.The DDC Excel plugin provides me with the capability to manage information in alternative ways.

STRUCTURED DATA is IDEAL SOURCE

for today's processing and analytics tools

Structured data, organized in columns and rows, has become the backbone of modern storage and analysis systems due to its orderliness and ease of processing. For example, only one Pandas library, which works with the DataFrame data format, is downloaded about 12 million times a day. Due to its popularity and ease of use, DataFrame (column based Data) has become the primary format for processing and automating data in ChatGPT, LLaMa and other LLM tools. Modern LLMs and data analytics tools almost always default to Python and Pandas for tasks such as data validation, analysis, visualization, and processing.

Structured and column based data are like the "JPEG of CAD (BIM)"

LLM becomes an assistant in validation, analytics and automation

CHATGPT ON CAD (BIM) DATA

Revit®, IFC, DGN, and DWG models are created by one specialist, but dozens rely on their data. Optimizing data flow is crucial, and tools like ChatGPT can streamline this process. The DataDrivenConstruction converter and LLMs automate data handling, reducing manual work and boosting efficiency in CAD (BIM) projects.

Be part of the movement with DataDrivenConstruction! Let’s make true freedom in data formats a reality and catalyze a new era of productivity and innovation in construction.The real and necessary journey from closed to “open” formats has not even started: True freedom in data formats—free from proprietary ties and accessible to all—is what we need to unlock innovation and collaboration across the construction industry, particularly benefiting the 99% of construction, i.e. SMEs and unchaining the sector for accelerated growth

With the help of Python and especially the pandas library, as the DataDrivenConstruction team does, we are now able to perform delivery checks four times faster. By turning IFC data into a pandas DataFrame and comparing it with quantification tables or classification databases, we have made our expertise fast and reliable.

DataDrivenConstruction Workshop

DataDrivenConstruction offers workshops tested and practiced on global leaders in the construction industry to help your team navigate and leverage the power of data and artificial intelligence in your company's decision making.

Head of department | BIM Professional @Lindner Group

What happens when you not only organize construction processes, but also analyse them intelligently? This was the topic of our workshop with Artem Boiko on “Data-Driven Construction”. The focus was on the question of how we can make better use of existing data - to make construction projects more efficient, more transparent and less error-prone.Using specific application examples, Artem showed how structured construction data can help to maintain an overview, identify supplements at an early stage and improve communication between planning and execution. Particularly exciting: how digital tools and models can already be used today to automate processes.Data-driven construction is no longer a topic for the future - we are right in the middle of it. The workshop showed how great the potential is if we work together and really make data work for us.

If "data is the new oil", we need to learn to define it, find it, mine it, refine it, to make it valuable. I've found Artem Boiko's research work, his book, and his posts very informative and insightful. He always provides a useful historical background and plain language explanation to his work. His regular contributions to the BIM Heroes community network help to give our AEC members, who are interested in digital transformation, a good understanding of data - how it works, and how it is structured, and how it can be used. Thanks Artem and DataDrivenConstruction for your continuous effort.

Artem Boiko delivered an impressive presentation at our BIM Cluster BW Day 2024 on the use of data in relation to BIM. His expertise in presenting a new vision for the application of data was truly inspiring. With his passion and deep understanding of the subject, he was able to explain complex concepts clearly while also introducing innovative approaches.Although his presentation was rich in content and full of slides, this density of information highlighted the depth of his vision and his persuasive power. Artem has the ability to captivate his audience with his open and engaging style, effectively leading them through the material. He demonstrates not only remarkable technical expertise but also the skill to communicate his message in a way that sparks reflection and encourages discussion.We sincerely thank Artem Boiko for his valuable contribution and look forward to future opportunities to benefit from his knowledge and visionary perspective.

In today's rapidly evolving digital landscape, interoperability, data processing, data mining and process automation are no longer optional - they are simply essential. Our approach is built on two essential pillars: theory and practice, both tailored to the unique needs of each company.

Theory

We cover key topics and trends that are directly relevant to your organization. This isn’t dry, academic theory—it’s a clear, fact-based understanding of current trends, combined with practical insights on how to address them in real-world scenarios.

Practice

We can also move into practical application as needed. Using modern tools and techniques, we demonstrate how to solve data-related problems efficiently and effectively. The knowledge gained is immediately applied to real-world problems.
