Hagerman & Company webcast asks building product manufacturers, "Are You BIM Ready?"

Mt. Zion IL – Hagerman & Company, Inc., one of America’s largest value-added resellers of Autodesk software today announced its “Are You BIM Ready?” webcast series. The webcast debuts Jan. 12 at 11 a.m. CST, with encore presentations on February 4 at 1 p.m. CST and February 23 at 11 a.m. CST.

The webcast is geared towards building product manufacturers and will demonstrate how to easily reach your target audience by making your building products visible to the millions of highly motivated designers using Autodesk Revit and AutoCAD software who can integrate your products directly into their BIM models or drawings. The webcast will also cover the new AEC Exchange and how users can share data files between Autodesk Revit and Autodesk Inventor software. This tool allows users to publish data files with simplified 3D representations and intelligent connection points for use in building models created using Autodesk Revit MEP and Autodesk Revit Architecture software.

Forrest Judd, Hagerman & Company Solutions Engineer, will present the webcast. Says Judd of the webcast series, “The ability to foresee construction issues and resolve them before breaking ground is becoming vital to the industry. That ability, however, requires information – information about every piece of equipment, fixture, and device – everything that goes into the building. That’s where Inventor comes in.”

An on-demand recording of the webcast will also be made available at the conclusion of the series. For more information on BIM and being “BIM Ready,” visit Hagerman & Company’s online newsletter for a related article.
