My name is Roland Chudailla.
I am the technical director of Polysius Vietnam.
Polysius is a company that was founded more
than 50 years ago.
It's a company who provides engineering and equipment for
cement factories and mineral projects.
And Polysius Vietnam was founded two years ago.
But the history goes back around to 2002.
And we had our first projects in Vietnam.
And by employing
local engineers, we developed a very close
relation with the client.
And it became a very successful story for Polysius.
We had a few steps I would say to implement
Tekla in our BIM system.
And I would say the first major thing was that we developed
a complete BIM system
where we really were
capable to transfer from our mechanical engineer's
PDMS model, to Tekla, to the calculation software and
backwards, and generate all the
documents out of the system.
This we are now using for quantity estimation in
projects all around the world.
And for sure, at first, I was assigned a
project in Saudi Arabia.
It was a big milestone for us
because then we were ready to provide design for
construction with Tekla.
And we had to face some challenges for us,
since this was new.
But I'm very proud that our team managed to complete the
whole design in BIM.
Benefits for our company,
I would say that without Tekla, we
would not be here.
We would not do this business.
Because initially, Polysius was not planning to
start up a structural team in Vietnam.
It was just, I would say it was opportunity
what we saw with Tekla, that we could really influence much
more to the whole design procedure, optimize our
schedule, and also the quality of design, and finally
what we did internally was to build up a huge know-how inside the company
which I am pretty sure will be a big
benefit for the whole company in the future,
coming for sure a bigger market share.
