Renga Helps Create Digital Models of Sports Facilities

The Moscow Department of Civil Engineering Competence Center is a division tasked with selecting, testing, and implementing digital solutions for design and construction organizations using BIM and a common data environment.

The Competence Center acts as an expert in information modeling technologies and conducts pilot projects to evaluate software capabilities and their scope of application with the goal of recommending design software to subordinate organizations to optimize and standardize work processes, reduce construction costs, and accelerate the pace of work.

Renga BIM system was one of the software solutions that specialists at the Department of Civil Engineering Competence Center adopted to test the capabilities of domestically developed alternatives. But the Center's specialists decided to test Renga immediately on large-scale projects. These projects were the Luzhniki Water Sports Palace and the Luzhniki Grand Sports Arena.

Evgeny Vaginov, Advisor to the Information Modeling Technologies Department of the Moscow City Department of Construction, weighs in on the results of the project implementation and execution: "We believe the main outcome of all the projects, and especially the Luzhniki Stadium, is that we were able to demonstrate the results and prove the capabilities of the home-grown product for the large facilities design. Today, Renga makes it easy to design sections for expert evaluation and retrieve the necessary information from the model. And given that Renga is integrated with many solutions, such as estimating software, this further expands the capabilities of information modeling. The main thing is to set up work processes correctly from the start. We use our pilot projects to demonstrate and promote BIM, explaining to colleagues the importance and necessity of transitioning to design with a digital information model. There's still a lot of work ahead, but it's safe to say that Russian-made software is rapidly developing and is becoming less and less inferior to its foreign competitors."
