Innovative Technology: SPECedit and BIM Model Probe access

If you would like a simpler, easier, and more responsive tool to develop your specifications – and not pay a cent more for the opportunity – we have some good news for you (especially if you are responsible for BIM-compliant specifications.)

You can download and immediately install the new SPECedit word-processor tool. It contains an additional feature that will help you improve your specification-writing capacity, especially if you are associating your specifications with Building Information Modelling (BIM) requirements.

Attached is a fact sheet and outline of the convenient features of SPECedit, explaining the simple process to test-drive the new service. Your rights for this software are exactly the same as for NMS-Edit. You don’t need to pay anything extra to use the updated software.

The additional BIM Model Probe resource, associated with SPECedit, allows you to:

• Select entity types in your model, e.g. doors from the specification.

• Select material properties, e.g. concrete, for building property specifications.

• Choose entity properties (e.g. door function, door finishes) to be shown in the specification.

• Build specification text with the door criteria into the proper section.

• If the model changes, update the specification with the changes.

• Generate a report of the differences found in either view of the design.

• Model Probe reads IFC files exclusively, using OpenBIM!

While BIM Model Probe will be available optionally to SPECedit users for $795 after a three month trial, you can receive a license to use the tool FREE for one year if you are the first to respond to this offer, for six months if you are second, and for three months if you are third. (And there is no obligation to purchase anything, ever.)

In exchange for this offer, all we ask is that you provide your feedback and guidance about its utility and let us know of any improvements you think to be important. In addition to supporting videos and documentation, we’ll provide direct support including, if you wish and are in the greater Ottawa area, at-your-location support.

This first-come, first-served offer is available only for the next three days (through March 20), though if you accept the offer, you can schedule the trial start and explore the BIM Model Probe tool at your convenience within the next two weeks.

To participate, please email Mark Buckshon at buckshon@cnrgp.com or phone (613) 699-2057 ext 224.

P.S. Please note that your access to SPECedit is free and doesn’t require any commitment of any kind. The special offer to test-drive BIM Model Probe is indeed limited in availability – just three days, and the best offer requires you to be the first to respond. Again, by saying “yes” you are not obligating yourself to any expense or ongoing commitment.
