AN EASY TO USE APPLICATION FOR PRODUCING COBIE INFORMATION, ROOM DATA AND A GEO-CODED ASSET DATABASE FOR YOUR BUILDING PROJECT.
eRDS is a cloud-based application for producing and managing asset databases for building projects. It conforms to the COBie schema and provides a single point of truth for management information that can be relied upon.
‘Our software is intended for use from initial design through construction, handover, and throughout a building’s life-cycle. It’s an on-line, multi-user system comprising a SQL database that can be interrogated and which incorporates the tools required for managing building assets on any size project’.
DEFINE.
ENRICH.
MONITOR.
Put your asset information to work and interrogate the database and monitor fit-out progress through eRDS checklists. Synchronise information captured from site with the master asset
database and view your data in BIM through 3D Asset.
POPULATE.
Populate every asset with COBie compliant as-built information and geo-referenced asset codes. Export the asset database with everything needed to populate BMS, FM and CMMS systems with validated information.
OUR PRODUCTS.
Our two core products eRDS Cloud and eRDS Field provide everything you need for defining and managing a building asset database.
They bring together asset information created in BIM as 3D objects, and non-modelled information only assets defined as room data, into a single COBie complaint resource.
Our solutions are designed for all project stages from the design phase through construction fit-out, and onward into facilities management.
BIM PLUGINS
We provide all the plugins necessary for integrating BIM with room data in an asset database.

eRDS MANAGER FOR REVIT
Extract building information from Revit to set up your eRDS Cloud project with all necessary levels, zones and rooms in accordance with COBie. Identify all maintainable assets from architectural and MEP models, import them with their GUIDs into the master asset database and allocate to the correct rooms.
Write enriched COBie information back to the original objects in a few key clicks. Enrich the BIM with non-modelled information-only assets defined as room data and written onto the spaces or FM placeholders as new Revit parameters. Automatically create 3D FM placeholders in your Revit model for improved visualisation in various viewing and FM applications.

BENEFITS.
A SINGLE POINT OF TRUTH.
COBie INFORMATION.
ASSET DATABASE FOR BIM OR EXISTING BUILDINGS.
Although eRDS is fully integrated with BIM, BMS and BIM-FM, it’s also designed for the real world where existing buildings or refurbishments may only have a set of 2D drawings. In either scenario eRDS can be used to create a comprehensive asset database of COBie compliant building information.
BETTER COLLABORATION.
Efficient collaboration is possible when the latest information is held in a central location.
Our online software allows the project team to share information and take decisions with the certainty that everyone is working from the same data set.
INFORMATION THAT CAN BE INTERROGATED.
MULTIPLE PROJECTS.
You can use eRDS on as many projects as you wish without any additional cost.
There is no practical limitation on the amount of data or size of building so you can use it on any sized project from a single residential dwelling through to large construction redevelopments.
AFFORDABLE & SCALABLE.
eRDS provides an excellent return on investment at a price your project can afford.
We price by the user and not by the size of your building project, so scaling up or down to meet your workload is easily accomplished.
Additional users can be added for short-term projects or to give stakeholders and owners access to their building information.
