Open source project management platform OpenProject has reported a 40 percent increase in UK-based architecture and engineering users over the past 12 months, with firms including Haworth Tompkins and Stride Treglown cited in case studies. Users are integrating OpenProject with IFC-based BIM tools such as FreeCAD and Blender BIM Add-on to coordinate design workflows without proprietary platform lock-in. The vendor has released a new Revit data bridge plugin in response to demand.
