Getting Started with SkyBIM

SkyBIM requires that your Revit model is properly configured for cost estimating. Most architect's Revit models that we've seen are about 80% ready for estimating. It typically takes a SkyBIM estimator two to three days to get the Revit model 100% ready. The majority of changes can be considered "best practice" - eg. naming conventions, etc.
