One of the most important features of the BIMPLUS web portal is the option to attach comments or other information, such as file attachments or hyperlinks, to objects. Thus, all those involved in the project can communicate and exchange information directly through the building model. As a result, any additions or changes are always up to date and available to all project participants at any time.
