AVEVA Engineering vs. Navisworks

This solution is an effective tool and the must platform for the Engineers working on multiple Civil Engineering projects since it allows easy access to all documents and other important information across all the Civil Engineering and Construction projects. The scheduling, easy activity tracking, and project expense and equipment management, AVEVA Engineering provides effective functionalities.

Navisworks is a key tool if doing any 3D model coordination with other trades. It will allow you to view your model content with others to know for certain that your design is accurate and can be assembled. Navisworks also comes with a lot of additional tools to make this process easy.

• Engineering project management.
• Project information management.
• Scheduling is excellent.

• Model Viewing, the navigation tools are really easy to use for walking through the model, especially if viewpoints are set up for key locations.
• The take-offs work really well and can be very quick and easy if the model was built right.

• AI and document [processing] section
• OCR and datasheet template imports
• Creating/deleting tags via TMS

• A link to BIM 360 Model Coordination is a serious shortcoming. It used to be easy to link to models loaded to BIM 360 Glue for more in depth clash detection.
• I would have liked the ability to export a simulation created in Navisworks to 3DS Max for a more immersive animation with decent material mapping and better animation tools.
• I would like to be able to view/create BIM 306 Docs/Field issues directly in Navisworks. In the current workflow we have to use other file formats to work within BIM 360. It would be more productive to be able to navigate the model through Navisworks and to create viewpoints and issues from within Navisworks.

Autodesk owns Navisworks, and it seems to have a pretty good support network. A lot of the troubleshooting or support information is provided through an online database, so you most likely would not be getting any personal attention with your issues. Since there are so many users for Navisworks, there is a lot of information on the web.

The AVEVA Engineering Civil Engineering services quality and quick creation of multiple Engineering plans and other files are easy and even editing of drawings is effective. AVEVA Engineering tools were very easy to custom and they help create excellent Engineering and Construction reports and the best data analytics generation and are easy to coordinate through AVEVA Engineering functions.

Navisworks is a master tool if we want to do any 3D model coordination with any trade of a building. It allows us to view our model content with all elements to visualize and understand for certain where our design stands in terms of accuracy and how all things can be assembled on site. Navisworks also comes with a lot of additional tools to make BIM process easy.

• AVEVA Engineering offers the extreme capability to collect Engineering data and an easy document management platform.
• Useful software and excellent to create reliable Engineering reports.
• Sharing files and other Engineering data is effective.

• It helps in coordination on BIM projects. We have had major project coordination saving millions on jobs.
• Helps us win more projects as we can coordinate them
• Used to use the animation tools for site logistics. Now we use game engines.
