There are 3 high-level approaches to the use of NTI CONNECT
cloud platform.
Benefits:
•This can be done with existing and ongoing projects - No prerequisites required.
•Everyone can easily access and view data.
•No need for Revit knowledge.
•Overview of data across models in one place - No need to open multiple models.
•Export to Excel.
Keep in mind:
•Quantities are split by model, so make sure to use project or account building parts if it is important to gather these.

•How to synchronize data between NTI CONNECT and Revit
2. Share Revit types between Revit project models
Benefits:
•Geometry is correct across the project models – This ensures the quality in the project material.
•Users of Revit will automatically be notified of a family change – Saves time and makes sure that models are up to date.
•Quantities are summed across models – No need to manually handle it in Excel.
Keep in mind:
•The Revit project model has to be synchronized frequently to make sure that the project is kept in sync.
Get started:
•Share building parts on projects
3. Standardize company building parts and use these on projects
Benefits:
•Revit families that are used on the projects are pre-approved and comply with the company standard.
•Changes to Revit families can be updated centrally and downloaded on projects.
•Company-specific parameters can be added.
•Quick for users to find a family and insert into the model.
Keep in mind:
•Changes to Revit families that are general for the company standard should be made in the catalog model.
Get started:
•Create building part standard
•How to insert building parts in Revit
