Client story.

Baltic Engineers UAB: “Agacad helped shift quickly from 2D to BIM and feel the benefits right away.”

This engineering company turned to Agacad for training and advice during its strategic transition from 2D to BIM. That gave rise to ongoing BIM project consulting and software development work. Baltic Engineers, already a leader in its home market, has since grown internationally.

Challenges

In making the strategic move to BIM several years ago, Baltic Engineers (since the time of publishing, renamed BE LIVE) needed help optimizing its new Autodesk® Revit® platform, training staff to leverage the system’s full potential, and developing effective new processes.

 

The firm also needed ongoing expert BIM advice, some advanced functionality for Revit, and a way to stay up-to-date regarding the latest technological advances.

 

In short, Baltic Engineers needed an expert BIM partner and advisor. And it selected Agacad for its unique competencies and flexible approach.

Baltic Engineers UAB

Founded in 2001, Baltic Engineers (renamed BE LIVE) is active mainly in Lithuania and Scandinavia, where it works with Denmark-based Ramboll and Finland’s Poyry. It provides territorial planning, design, project management and engineering consultancy services. Among the first Lithuanian companies to implement BIM, the firm has completed more than 200 projects over the past 5 years in the building, industrial, infrastructure and environment sectors.

Agacad arranged intensive Revit trainings for the company’s personnel, both on site and remotely, and also advised Baltic Engineers on how to optimize its BIM platform, use tools to full effect, and implement international best practices. “Agacad was our guide in the transition to BIM and a source of additional know-how,” says Vygantas Žekas, BIM Manager at Baltic Engineers. “They became a partner, almost a direct participant, in our pilot project, helping us identify and implement the best solutions.”
Impact

Today Baltic Engineers is a leading Lithuanian design firm, known and highly regarded in Scandinavia as a reliable partner for modern engineering design and BIM project management.

 

The company says its relationship with Agacad has provided valuable competitive advantage.

 

“They helped us get up to speed fast and feel the benefits of BIM right away, from the very first year. And they continue helping us do more in less time, with higher quality, in terms of design services and engineering calculations and giving clients better information,” Žekas says.

Collaboration has been constant, as Baltic Engineers continues on the road to digital information management in all its business processes. The goal is to use its BIM know-how and tools not only for design services, but also for construction and in the facility management stage.

The company regularly seeks Agacad's advice on more complex project-specific matters, and also makes requests for innovative new Revit functionality.
“Agacad creates BIM tools to meet their clients’ needs, so we tell them what we need and count on them to produce it,” Žekas notes. “By telling Agacad our needs, we’re contributing to the development of new BIM solutions and approaches. Collaboration between those who know the market and those who know BIM software inside out gives both parties a chance to grow and benefits everyone.”
For its part, Agacad recommends BE-LIVE as experts in BIM project preparation and management. Engineering professionals you can count on for quality.
