30-Second Summary

• What’s New: DraftSight Premium, Enterprise Plus, and 3DEXPERIENCE DraftSight Premium (2025xSP01+) now include a BIM Module.
• Core Capability: Import Revit and IFC models directly, extract BIM data, and convert to clean DWGs for efficient documentation.
• Why It Matters: Delivers high-quality 2D output faster, with full BIM context—bridging design and site execution.
• Strategic Advantage: Supports your BIM workflows, reduces errors, and improves collaboration between all project stakeholders.
• Who It’s For: AEC professionals seeking reliable, editable 2D documentation that complements existing Revit workflows.

Even as BIM becomes standard across the AEC industry, a critical gap remains—clear, accurate 2D output.

While tools like Revit are invaluable for 3D modelling, most teams still fall back on 2D drawings for on-site execution, compliance, and communication.

If your 2D process is lagging behind your 3D innovation, it’s time for a smarter approach.

DraftSight’s new BIM Module fills this gap, enabling faster, standards-compliant 2D documentation without leaving BIM data behind.

BIM Gaps Still Exist—And They Cost You

BIM has transformed how we design and manage projects—but it hasn’t eliminated the need for accurate, fast 2D drawings.

Despite sophisticated 3D models, construction teams, inspectors, and even clients still depend on 2D documentation for day-to-day decision-making.

What’s the problem?

Revit and other BIM tools aren’t optimised for 2D output.

The result? Clunky exports, inefficient documentation, and preventable mistakes on site.

Introducing the DraftSight BIM Module

DraftSight’s BIM Module redefines 2D drafting in a BIM-driven world.

Now available in DraftSight Premium, Enterprise Plus, and 3DEXPERIENCE DraftSight Premium (from version 2025xSP01), this powerful addition enhances your workflow without replacing your current tools.

Key Features at a Glance

• Import Revit (RVT) and IFC models directly
  No conversion headaches—open BIM files inside DraftSight and start working immediately.
• Extract BIM data into clean 2D DWGs
  Quickly generate standards-compliant documentation with full access to building data.
• Preserve BIM context and relationships
  All extracted data retains meaning, accuracy, and project alignment.
• Optimised for performance
  Work with large files smoothly—ideal for high-volume or complex projects.

Enhance, Don’t Replace—How It Works with Revit

DraftSight doesn’t replace Revit—it enhances your existing setup.

Instead of relying solely on Revit for drawing outputs, DraftSight adds a reliable, flexible 2D documentation layer.

Think of it as a BIM-to-field translator that simplifies communication without sacrificing data integrity.

Why AEC Professionals Are Making the Switch

You’re juggling stakeholders, timelines, budgets, and compliance—clear 2D documentation is non-negotiable.

Whether you’re a designer, project manager, contractor, or site inspector, DraftSight gives you a universal language that keeps everyone aligned.

Why It’s More Than Just CAD

DraftSight’s BIM Module gives you:

• High-quality, standards-compliant drawings from any BIM model
• Better communication between teams and across disciplines
• Time-saving performance for fast-paced project delivery
• A smarter way to work—without rework or re-explanation

Let 2D Work With BIM, Not Against It

Revit is powerful. BIM is the future. But if your 2D strategy isn’t keeping up, your workflow suffers.

Ask yourself:

Are your 2D outputs slowing down your projects?

If the answer is yes, DraftSight is the missing link.
