Software house · Rome · since 2001

Software for people who design, construct and manage buildings.

Blogic started out as an IT consultancy. Today we focus on one subject: building and infrastructure data, from how it is created in BIM models to how it reaches the people who make decisions.

About us

Twenty-five years of software, and a team you talk to directly.

We started by designing IT infrastructure and application systems to help clients work better and respond faster to change. It is still an important part of what we do.

Working on databases, web services and asset management, we came across BIM. That is where VCAD began: first to manage spaces and assets on floor plans, today to connect models in any format to the analytics tools companies already use.

We are a small team, and we see that as an advantage. The person who answers you wrote the code you use, and every client request goes straight to the people who build the product.

What we do

We connect building models with the people who make decisions.

A BIM model holds thousands of pieces of information that stay locked inside design software. Our job is to take them where they are needed: into the reports of the people tracking costs, construction progress and maintenance.

BIM and Business Intelligence integration

We extract properties, quantities and versions from models and connect them to interactive dashboards. The 3D model stays navigable inside the report and filters together with the data.

For BIM managers, project managers, financial controllers

Autodesk

Autodesk Platform Services development

As an Autodesk technology partner we build with the Autodesk Platform Services APIs: web viewers, model automation, connectors to Forma and to enterprise systems.

For contractors and design firms with digital processes to integrate

Space and asset management

From DWG floor plans to the BIM model: room and asset inventories, space availability and use, maintenance deadlines, export to PDF and Excel.

For facility managers, public bodies, property owners

Consulting and application architecture

This is the work we started with: we design IT infrastructure and application systems that grow with the business, from databases to web services.

For companies that need to respond faster to change

Our product

VCAD brings the BIM model into Power BI.

Technical teams, project managers and clients work on the same report, without opening BIM software or asking for exports. Even on models with millions of elements and properties.

From the model in Autodesk Construction Cloud to a VCAD report in Power BI: the 3D model and the data in the same dashboard.
  1. Step 1

    Connect the model

    Upload an IFC file and start right away. For Revit, Navisworks and DWG, activate your Autodesk Platform Services credentials in about ten minutes. Or connect an Autodesk Forma project directly.

  2. Step 2

    VCAD extracts the data

    Every format goes through the same extraction logic: properties, quantities and geometry arrive structured the same way, so reports stay consistent across different projects.

  3. Step 3

    Open the report

    Start from a ready-made Power BI report template, then customise it. With Forma, every new model version updates the data and stays traceable.

A library of ready-made reports, each built around a real question

Costs
How much of the second lot's budget goes on concrete?
Progress
What has been installed against this week's schedule?
Clashes
Which clashes between services and structure are still open, and on which floor?
Maintenance
Which components have maintenance due in the next 90 days?
Occupancy
How many square metres are free on the ground floor, and for what use?

VCAD

For teams that manage models on their own, without a common data environment (CDE). Upload your files and update them whenever you want.

VCAD for Forma

For teams working in Autodesk Forma: direct access to projects, folders and versions, with dashboards synchronised to the latest model version.
