The result is one that most BIM Managers could only dream of.In what was reported as a world first at the time by Autodesk, a solution was devised to pull various data (such as project planning) from the enterprise system SAP into the Revit BIM.When this SAP data is mixed with the BIM data, new 'transformative' data is generated which is then push back out to SAP as a bill of quantities for purchasing.In order to achieve this high resolution of data manipulation, the Level of Detail in the BIM was down to every shelf bracket, or even every spoon. Now that's BIM!
