BIMstop (and our parent company Barrington Arch founded in 2007) believe in challenging the norm to bring better efficiency to the architectural, engineering & construction industry (AEC) and allow everybody to focus on the things they enjoy and are really good at.
We do this by applying the latest technologies to the problems faced by the industry in order to find better ways that bring value to everybody involved.
The BIMstop platform is our answer to this and it grew out of a need; With the invention of new BIM (Building Information Modeling) systems our goal is to help speed up the flow of information from building product manufacturers to architects, we believe resulting in better efficiencies across the whole industry – and of course better & smarter buildings!
Along the way we follow these principles:
We achieve this by being one of the only companies globally that fully supports BIM, not just a particular piece of software. We pride ourselves on being the only company to support BIM content production in a variety of formats (Revit, ArchiCAD, Vectorworks & Bentley). BIM is a process and at its core it is a collaboration tool, this is why we choose to support BIM in all formats.
The BIMstop platform and BIM content is currently used by clients in over 96 countries every month (statistic from October 2011). Including, but not limited to; USA, Europe, Japan, UAE, Australia & New Zealand.
This gives us a global feel for the architectural & building industries as a whole. Allowing us to better apply new solutions & keeping us on the cutting edge of building technology. We currently have offices in the USA, Australia & New Zealand. We also have partnerships with companies in the United Kingdom, Germany, UAE, South Africa, Canada and Japan.
So not matter where you are we can help. It also makes us the only company to offer cross
We see our clients as partners. We know you have long term goals for your company and so do we. By working closely together with our clients to form a lasting relationship, we are able to extract greater value from what we do. Creating a good win-win. We also help to encourage networking between our clients, often resulting in powerful industry synergies being born.
Unusal in the business world is that like you we want as many people using and specifying your content as possible, so when you win – we win.
We are all in a fast changing industry and a fast changing world. That’s why we constantly invest in R&D to refine our approach. Not only that, we supply our a huge range of great resources and guides to help educate the industry and allow companies to extract greater value from their investments and make the best decision on where to the industry is heading.
Barrington Arch (and later BIMstop) was founded in 2006 by Scott Barrington and grew out of a need. Whilst studying architecture, Scott was frustrated with the lack of well built manufacturers specific 3d models to use within his design’s plans & documentation. From there the entrepreneurial spirit kicked in and Barrington Arch was born with a purpose; to solve these problems within the industry.
Since then BIMstop & Barrington Arch have set out to change this and has grown to be globally recognised for its BIM content distribution & development, across a range of CAD/BIM formats (Including Revit, ArchiCAD, Vectorworks & Sketchup).
BIMstop now provides the only complete 'start to finish' solution for building product manufacturers, looking to achieve high specifications of their products, thus increasing their sales.
BIMstop (and parent company Barrington Arch) has received funding from PowerHouse Ventures Ltd. For enquires relating to this please contact us.
