ReviewInsight from Ticodi: An advanced model review and comment system
In today's market companies are reliant on work-sharing projects, this ensures that you can utilise resources wherever they are available and gives you the possibility of operating 24 hours a day, 7 days a week design teams.
However with work-sharing a 3D model comes another challenge, this is ensuring that you are able to guide your design offices by commenting on the model and feeding model comments back to your work-share offices. This traditionally is done by taking a screen shot of the model, printing the screen shot, hand marking it up, scanning and then emailing to your design office to carry out the work. As you can imagine this is hugely labour intensive and presents an administration headache when managing the email requests and ensuring that the work has been completed.
THE SOLUTION
Ticodi ReviewInsight is the first product to bring you a fully database-driven model comment tool which provides advanced recording of model comments, 2D markup, reporting and fully managed collaboration of model comments. ReviewInsight allows engineers, designers and professionals to communicate, collaborate and comment easily, either within the same office location or on a global level.
ReviewInsight stores model comments in one central database, therefore making your model comments easier to manage comprehensively. ReviewInsight allows the capture of a model, from any application, including all CAD packages, thus allowing easy visual recognition of model comments. The ergonomically designed Graphical User Interface (GUI) of ReviewInsight allows for storing, viewing, markup, editing, approving and reporting of all model comments from within one main application window.
The software can be run as a stand-alone application, bringing model screen capture shots in for mark up, commentary and saving in the ReviewInsight database. Alternatively, ReviewInsight can be installed as a plug-in for AutoDesk® Navisworks® (Manage and/or Simulate variants) to enable direct capture from within the DWG environment, again saving to the ReviewInsight database. This provides more convenient model comment capture plus other benefits such as stored camera positions to re-create the exact viewpoint when reviewing model comments and updates.
ReviewInsight was developed to aid in managing and providing an effective audit trail of your model comments. It is designed with not only with engineers and managers in mind but also the designers to enable efficient identification of model comments and give designers a clear visual and detailed explanation of what needs to be actioned and how it can be resolved. The software further allows users to enter a resolved model comment description and image of how the model comment has been resolved, which is a key aspect in an audit trail.

BUSINESS BENEFITS
Quick and easy resolution of model comments saves man-hours.
Form collaborative model comments internally and globally with ease, making multi-site projects work more efficiently.
This has huge advantages over other email based model comment systems as all your model comments are within one central location. This means that anyone on your network can access model comments at real time, and also do not have the headache of keeping track on emailed model comments.
Easier involvement from work-share offices and disciplines allows for more informed decisions throughout model comment resolution.
