BIM Link

The model knows what’s been inspected.

Bind every equipment tag to its IFC element once. From then on the field crew’s photos, the reviewer’s approval, and the sealed turnover record all live where the equipment actually is — in the model.

Drag the model to orbit · pick a tag above or a pin in the scene

How the link works

One identity, then everything rides the model.

No parallel spreadsheet, no manual re-mapping every revision. The link is the IFC GlobalId — the one identifier that survives a model re-export.

  • Step 01

    Bind by GlobalId

    Map each tag to its model element with its 22-character IfcGloballyUniqueId — never a per-parse expressID. Import the whole mapping from a CSV in one pass.

  • Step 02

    See status in space

    Approved, verifying, or an open NCR — each tag's live inspection state renders on the element itself. Find the one red pin without scrolling a punch list.

  • Step 03

    Seal the turnover

    Closing a tag writes a hash-chained, timestamped record. The turnover package exports with the model element's GlobalId on every line — verifiable offline.

Two views, one source

The model tree and the inspection log are the same list.

Select an element in the IFC tree and its Ready-to-Inspect record is right there — matched by GlobalId, not by a name someone re-typed.
