About the plugin

The Bimsync add-in for Autodesk® NavisWorks® is the perfect tool for projects collaborating in Bimsync Arena. All your issues are synchronized in real-time between NavisWorks and Bimsync, letting you create, access, share, and communicate issues. The issue format is BCF so that the issues can be shared across any BCF enabled BIM software or platform.

This add-in allows you to visualize, create, and edit issues seamlessly from within NavisWorks. You can also download and federate the IFC model stored in Bimsync to your local client.

Features include:

  • Access to all your Bimsync projects

  • Filter and manage issues across issue boards

  • Create new issues directly from Navis Works

  • Locate issues in your NavisWorks model

  • Create a new 3D view for each comment

  • Create BCF issues from clashes found using the Clash detective

  • Assign issues to other project members

  • Change issue status and other properties
