Round-trip findings with any BIM tool
Import and export findings as BCF, the open BIM Collaboration Format, and round-trip issues with whatever clash-detection and authoring tools your kwaliteitsborger and design partners run. Findings move between platforms with their location, comments, and viewpoints intact. Nobody is re-typing an issue from a screenshot.
Findings get trapped in one tool
On any real project, every party works in different software. The architect is in one authoring tool, the kwaliteitsborger in a clash detector, the contractor somewhere else again. Without a shared exchange format, findings get re-typed from one tool into the next. That's slow, it drops detail, and the same issue ends up tracked three different ways. Comments go missing, copies drift apart, and there's no single status everyone trusts.
BCF as the common language
- Export findings as standard BCF to share with any compatible tool.
- Import BCF from your kwaliteitsborger, so external issues land directly in your project.
- Round-trip changes keep everyone working from the same set of issues.
- Location, comments, and viewpoints travel with each finding, so nothing is lost in the exchange.
Key capabilities
Open BCF standard
Findings use the open BIM Collaboration Format. They exchange with any BCF-capable tool, not just whatever speaks our export.
Import and export
Send findings out as BCF and pull your kwaliteitsborger's issues straight in. External work lands in your project on its own.
Full round-trip
Changes flow both ways, so every party stays on the same set of issues. No more three diverging copies.
Context preserved
Each finding carries its location, comments, and viewpoints through the exchange. The detail survives the trip.
Frequently asked questions
- What is BCF and why does it matter?
- BCF is the open BIM Collaboration Format, a vendor-neutral standard for exchanging issues between BIM tools. Findings move between platforms without anyone re-typing them, so every party keeps working in the software they prefer.
- Which tools can I exchange findings with?
- Any BCF-capable tool, including your kwaliteitsborger's clash-detection and authoring software. You export findings as BCF and import the BCF files they send back.
- What information survives the exchange?
- Each finding carries its location, comments, and saved viewpoints through the BCF round-trip. The full context travels with the issue instead of getting lost between tools.
