In November 2010, CodeBook's US distributor, CDV Systems announced that its BIM Lifecycle Management solutions were being integrated into AECOM's overall BIM initiative/strategy. CDV Systems involvement with AECOM included firm-wide Revit implementation and training of all trades across AECOM globally, plus provision of the same services for CodeBook.

As part of AECOM's BIM initiative, CDV Systems provided CodeBook training and implementation for AECOM projects across the US. CodeBook bidirectionally links a project's program, equipment and furniture data utilizing an MS Access database, to CAD and BIM programs such as Autocad, Microstation and Revit Architecture & MEP. Once linked, CodeBook monitors and validates design changes during the entire design and documentation process, permits parameter data flow between programmes, exports the data's X,Y,Z shared coordinates of all the rooms and FF+E assets to FM via Maximo and GIS via ESRI, ArcGIS.

“AECOM continues to use CodeBook and its link to Revit on a number of our justice group projects,” says Scott Adams, AECOM BIM Manager for Planning, Design + Development. “It has been a huge asset in managing program and asset data for both the architectural and MEP elements. We are now planning to expand the use of CodeBook at AECOM into other market sectors, including healthcare, aviation and transportation.”

“Since 2007, CDV Systems has and continues to be an integral partner in our implementation, training and execution of BIM for AECOM worldwide,” says John Kizior, AECOM's Global Director, Delivery Solutions. “Their BIM knowledge, capabilities and integration techniques are world class, and have advanced and solidified all trades of our BIM project teams and methodologies. As AECOM expands its BIM services across all sectors of AEC+O, it is my plan to include CDV Systems and CodeBook (CodeBook International Ltd), as essential team members.”
