Case study / BIM4U
A clearer route through a BIM library.
Geeklab designed the platform website and information architecture for a building information modelling object library.
Platform website / Information architecture
Delivered project
Object-library navigation and manufacturer information.
The brief
What the work needed to do.
Explain the platform’s value and help users navigate towards relevant categories and manufacturer objects. We developed feature panels, category navigation and account calls to action around modelling, cloud and search capabilities.
The challenge
What the experience had to solve.
Specifiers need to understand the offer while finding detailed information suited to their work.
The work
The thinking behind the delivery.
01
Explain the platform before the task
Feature panels introduce the value of the object library and its modelling, cloud and search capabilities. The website connects that explanation to the activities that bring specifiers and manufacturers to the platform.
02
Build around object discovery
Category navigation and manufacturer-object journeys give the library a useful structure. The work treats objects, supporting data and technical literature as information people need to locate and assess.
03
Connect discovery to an account
Account calls to action accompany the platform explanation and library routes. The website and information architecture connect an introduction to the platform with the next step a visitor can take.
Evidence and outcome
What the work put in place.
BIM4U’s platform website connects the library proposition with category navigation, manufacturer objects and account journeys. The figures below describe recorded public-website and search performance for the stated period.
