dRofus
Cloud-based requirements management, space programming, and BIM integration platform used primarily by healthcare facility owners -- enforces FGI Guidelines compliance through structured Room Data Sheets, tracks equipment specifications and procurement, and syncs bi-directionally with Autodesk Revit (through 2027) and Graphisoft ArchiCAD 29 via IFC GUID; Baptist Health (7.5 million sqft, 80+ buildings) reduced capital cost estimation from days to 20 minutes (per system director Matthew Bode) using dRofus; a Nemetschek Group product.
Solid for healthcare owners running multi-project capital programs -- Room Data Sheets enforce FGI compliance across a portfolio, bi-directional Revit and ArchiCAD BIM sync keeps requirements anchored to model elements, and 70+ built-in PDF and Excel reports support regulatory documentation; pricing is project-based per sqm with no public rate card (RF1), and enterprise-grade onboarding is required, so not suited to single-project architectural firms.
