Located in Richmond, VIC Australia, Studio Tate is an interior architecture firm renowned for crafting environments that merge craftsmanship with functionality, resonating with today’s experience-driven culture.
As the firm grew, so did its ambitions, including the shift to Revit to optimize workflows and streamline project delivery. However, the team’s transition from ArchiCAD to Revit presented challenges that needed an effective and adaptive solution.
When the firm decided to move from ArchiCAD to Revit, which was a logical decision since it would be a building block for development in the future. However, this major change did not come without significant challenges.
With 70% of the team unfamiliar with Revit, the risk of project delays became a serious concern. The software transition was projected to add up to 25% more time to project timelines, while 50% of the team faced difficulties adapting to the new workflows. Additionally, There were even fears that there might be a drop of up to 20% of quality in design.
Alex Tate, Creative Director at Studio Tate, expressed the challenges they faced:
“We knew the move to Revit was necessary for our growth, but we were worried about the impact on our project timelines and design quality. We needed a solution that would minimize disruption and quickly bring our team up to speed.”
To address these challenges, Studio Tate partnered with Interscale, a BIM/CAD consultancy specializing in Revit training and managed services. Together, they crafted a comprehensive training program, tailored specifically to the firm’s needs:
Interscale developed a specialized training approach, focusing on Studio Tate’s workflow. The program ensured both novice and experienced team members were comfortable with essential and advanced Revit tools, adapting the software to their design needs.
Using Global eTraining, the program included tailored quizzes to assess proficiency and targeted video recommendations. This personalized approach allowed team members to tackle areas needing improvement and reduced the time needed to reach competency.
Interscale introduced “Lunch & Learn” sessions, creating a relaxed learning environment for team members to discuss common workflow issues, learn efficient design techniques, and receive on-the-spot guidance for Revit complexities.
The program extended beyond training sessions with continuous project support. A dedicated Teams channel and regular office visits provided real-time assistance and resources to address specific workflow needs, ensuring the transition to Revit stayed on course.
The collaboration with Interscale proved transformative for Studio Tate. Key results included:
