Revizto is bringing its project coordination platform to the mining industry, with Thiess one of its trusted mining clients.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over 12 months ago, Thiess was looking to digitise its engineering coordination workflows across projects and streamline its site-based delivery objectives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The global mining services provider wanted to visualise its upcoming construction projects by using a platform to better deliver projects digitally, while managing all external project members, its technical query processes and site-based defects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To address these issues, Thiess engaged Revizto<\/a>, a Swiss-based company that first launched its coordination software for the architecture, engineering, construction and mining industries in 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOne of the fastest growing 2D and 3D fully integrated collaboration platforms, Revizto has been operating in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region for more than seven years now.\u201d Revizto mining lead Jack Joy told Australian Mining.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Revizto platform empowers users to access, manage, and collaborate on construction and infrastructure projects through the unity of building information modelling (BIM) intelligence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can access Revizto via a computer or mobile app.

\u201cBuilt on a video game engine, Revizto is easy to use and allows fast adoption by project teams across all disciplines and with any level of technical skills,\u201d Joy said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIts processing power and ability to bring in hundreds of 3D models and thousands of 2D drawings into the one platform is unmatched, making Revizto suitable for projects of any size.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Users can also use Revizto via a mobile app, allowing subcontractors and site-based teams to access and use the models and drawings on-site, leading to less redrafts, safer workflows, and higher efficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was these features, and Revizto\u2019s ease of use, that caught the eye of Thiess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thiess senior civil engineer Brett Jenkins told Australian Mining<\/em> the company operates a greenfield site in Queensland\u2019s Bowen Basin, which includes the construction of the mine infrastructure area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRevizto is working with Thiess on this construction to coordinate and collate the various design models and drawings,\u201d Jenkins said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThiess and MACA (Thiess\u2019 subsidiary) are also working together with Revizto to assist with the project management of construction activities Thiess provides to the mining industry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since using Revizto, Thiess\u2019 civil engineering and delivery teams have seen an array of operational benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRevizto has allowed for the various design models, including the pit and dump designs, to be incorporated into a single program allowing multiple views without the need for installing design software,\u201d Jenkins said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRevizto has also allowed for the management of subcontractors with RFIs (requests for information), NCRs (non-conformance reports) and as-built mark ups all coordinated into the single program.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Since using Revizto, Thiess has saved a significant amount of time and resources.

Prior to using Revitzo, Thiess would have a person go through each NCR or RFI to ensure they were referenced in drawings, which used a significant amount of time and resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPreviously, RFIs and NCRs were managed through emails and folders with information needing to be updated for the as-built mark ups,\u201d Jenkins said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRevizto incorporates this into the program, eliminating the requirement to manually update document trackers and as-built drawings, and email documentation to relevant parties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Revizto software also automatically references the relevant drawings and has helped stakeholders visualise the design of the infrastructure, as well as recommending design changes prior to construction.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After resolving various engineering and design issues with Revizto, Thiess is in talks with the company to bring the platform to other upcoming projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The partnership between Thiess and Revizto continues to thrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRevizto\u2019s ability to manage RFIs and NCRs has significantly reduced our manual efforts,\u201d Jenkins said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith these improvements, Revizto looks forward to demonstrating its impact at various events across APAC and beyond, highlighting the substantial benefits the company brings to the mining industry.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
