Abstract: A method for providing an options configurator may include receiving an indication of a hierarchical structure of building plan options applicable to an enterprise, enabling a user to define option sets including selected ones of the building plan options, enabling the user to associate different ones among the option sets with corresponding different entities within the enterprise based on distinguishing characteristics of the respective different entities, and providing for generation of building information models and their derivatives based on selected options within an option set. A corresponding apparatus and computer program product are also provided.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product are described for providing a model map for workflow integration from concept to production. The apparatus may receive a file in a first format, produce a mapped file from the file in the first format, and provide for conversion of the mapped file from the mapped format to a second, different format. The file in the first format may be supported by a first application, such as an architectural design application, a design engineering application, or a production specific application. The file in the second format may be supported by a second application, which may include an architectural design application, a design engineering application, or a production specific application. In this way, a file in the first format that is only operable on the first application may be converted to a file in the second format that is operable on the second application.
