From Data to Decisions: Driving Project Certainty in Megaprojects with Power BI and Construction Cloud

Discover how Exyte, a leader in delivering high-tech facilities, manages multidisciplinary megaprojects. In these projects, thousands of details, conflicts, and decisions constantly compete for attention, making it difficult to focus on what really matters. Using a data-driven approach powered by Construction Cloud and Power BI, we’ve improved project certainty, making it easier to manage complexity effectively. In this session, we’ll share how we shifted from reactive problem-solving to proactive, insight-driven project management. By seamlessly consolidating data from Revit, Navisworks, Construction Cloud, Work Plans, and other external sources, we've developed powerful dashboards that do more than report. They actively guide decisions, prioritize tasks, and give real-time project insights. With this approach, we can focus on key conflicts, track model health, monitor issues across packages, and give senior management a clear and reliable view of project progress. This isn't just better reporting—it’s a smarter way to build.

Automated and Parametrized Reinforcement Workflow: Case Studies of Infrastructure Projects Using Templates

This session will look at the full parametrization of an automated rebar modeling and drawing extraction used for infrastructure projects using Civil 3D, Revit, and Dynamo. This idea advances the automation of building information modeling (BIM) for bridge and tunnel reinforcement by developing a novel workflow in Germany's most progressive state, THE LÄND. Using a parametric template for rebars, the study integrates Dynamo, facilitating the automatic generation of intelligent models and rebar schedules. This method was successfully applied to real, large-scale, bridge and tunnel projects, demonstrating its effectiveness. The workflow enables automatic extraction of detailed rebar drawings and annotations. By streamlining project execution and enhancing data coherence, this integrated approach significantly improves BIM lifecycle management for infrastructure construction. The underlying ontology connecting normative requirements, FE results, and our long-term experience is the final step on our road map for an AI-based reinforcement generation.
