	Challenge Precise planning for local production and assembly in Bermuda. Solutions Advance - Steel Suite Secure and automatic creation of object lists Collision control on screen Transmission of NC-data from the construction office to production by fiber optic cable Virtual snapshots of the assembly for construction personnel
Questions to Rainer Bach And Georg Stichternath, Top Managers of CONFERDO Mr. Bach, why did you choose Advance to model this project? We have been using Advance for 2 years and are very satisfied with it's capabilities. Mr. Stichternath, what benefits have Advance Steel brought to this project? For assembly overseas it's really important to have precise object lists in order to eliminate errors with bolts, connection elements and assemblies on the project site. Advance from Graitec does a great job in automating and updating all part lists. Another great feature is the collision check to make sure everything fits right the first timeand the virtual snapshots feature creates various views from different perspectives so the construction personnel know what the final structure should look like.
