In anticipation of AU, UNIFI is making a couple of announcements, including their new Manufacturer Content Portal which provides high quality BPM content to AECs via the UNIFI platform.

UNIFI Manufacturer Content Portal Ensures Access to Quality BIM Content
UNIFI Bridges the Gap to Bring AECs and BPMs Closer Together
UNIFI, the world’s foremost cloud-based platform for creating and managing BIM content, has partnered with leading global Building Product Manufacturers (BPMs) to establish the building industry’s premier publicly available, quality controlled BPM content library. Leveraging UNIFI’s industry-leading search and expert content creation capabilities, all content hosted on the portal meets UNIFI’s stringent, industry-leading content quality benchmarks. Users of the portal enjoy seamless integration of content into Autodesk Revit project models via the UNIFI content management platform.
Up to this point, the prevalence of public content libraries hosting content of varying standards and minimal quality control has presented AEC BIM leaders with a serious challenge in ensuring only high quality content reaches their firm-based content libraries, and in turn, project models. This lack of quality BPM content has inhibited BIM maturity for AECs of all sizes, slowing their project delivery timeline and driving additional costs to their clients.
With their new Manufacturer Content Portal, UNIFI eliminates that uncertainty by establishing a trusted source for BPM content, ensuring all content hosted on the portal meets UNIFI’s stringent quality standards by passing it through our proprietary content auditing tools. AECs gain access to high quality BPM content is easily accessible and inserted into models through UNIFI’s content management platform. BIM leaders can now be assured the BPM content their designers are inserting into projects is high quality and easy to find, as well as receiving analytics on which products are being used across projects. Additionally, enabled by their industry leading content management system, UNIFI provides AECs with the ability to make BPM libraries private to their designers, so that the BPM content is searchable within their firm-specific naming conventions.
“The UNIFI portal is the missing link between building product manufacturers and AECs, ensuring that high quality BIM content is readily accessible and is safe to be utilized in models, ” says Mark Eslinger, CTO of UNIFI. “This is a big step in advancing UNIFI’s solutions that bring the building industry together and further the advancement of BIM.”
Drawing on their experience creating content for both AECs and BPMs, UNIFI’s Content Creation team has populated the portal with the highest quality and most in-demand manufacturer product categories, based on feedback from BIM specialists at leading AEC firms. As UNIFI continues to grow the selection of BPM content available through its new portal, manufacturers who are interested in making their products directly available to many of the world’s largest and most prominent AECs can contact UNIFI’s Content Creation experts about creating BIM content for their product lines or having their existing BIM content certified at info@unifilabs.com or call us at 702.527.6460.
