What’s new in Solibri Office – September 2023
The newest Solibri Office release (v 9.13.5) introduces direct integration with Trimble Connect, new Autorun commands, improvements to a number of rules, and a new Drag and Drop functionality. Check out the top highlights and update to the new version.
#1. Trimble Connect integration
Solibri is expanding its integrations with the new direct link to Trimble Connect, a cloud-based common data environment (CDE) and collaboration platform for the construction industry. This integration will allow Solibri and Trimble users to collaborate more efficiently on the BIM quality of their projects, providing a major boost to productivity and project quality.
From now on users can access and save files (IFC, SMC & PDF) directly from their Trimble Connect account within Solibri. You can use the Update model functionality to fetch the latest files from the server to your Solibri project, thus keeping all your models up to date. Having a single source of truth for all project files will streamline the collaboration process and help to ensure that everyone is working from the same data.
Solibri's mission is to raise the quality of BIM standards within the industry, and the integration with Trimble Connect is one more step towards embedding BIM quality control in the construction workflow. With this new integration, Solibri is helping to ensure that construction projects are delivered on time, on budget, and to the highest possible standards.
