DatumX Early Access

Schedule Exporter for Revit. DatumX turns every BWIC in your linked models into a formatted, photo-embedded Excel schedule — or lets you build your own column layout from any parameter you can find.

Case Study

A federated model, scanned and scheduled without touching Excel

A typical BWIC coordination job: a live model with linked MEP and structural files, hundreds of openings, and a schedule that needs re-doing every time the model changes. Here's that same workflow run through DatumX, screen by screen.

DatumX Schedule Builder — Discover Parameters tab showing 126 parameters found across Pipe/Duct, Cable Tray/Conduit and Walls/Floors
1

Scan the model, find every parameter

DatumX Schedule Builder's first tab scans the live model and every linked file, then groups everything it finds — BWIC parameters, MEP, host walls and floors — with a live count of each. On this model: 126 parameters across 63 Pipe/Duct, 21 Cable Tray/Conduit, and 42 wall/floor parameters, with no manual list-building.

Map columns instead of typing them

Every discovered parameter gets mapped to a header name and a source/key, with fallback values for anything a family might be missing. Rows that resolved cleanly in the last scan are flagged green; anything that would export blank is flagged before it ever reaches Excel.

Export against the real federated model

The scan runs directly against the current model and its linked MEP and structural files — no separate export step, no re-linking. Re-run it after the model changes and the same column profile applies automatically.

Key benefits

Hours back per schedule

What used to mean copying values row by row now runs as a scan — the schedule comes out the other side already formatted.

Nothing exports blank silently

Unresolved columns are flagged before export, not discovered after the schedule's already been sent out.

One profile, every re-run

Column layouts are saved once and reused — a model update doesn't mean rebuilding the schedule from scratch.

Inside DatumX

From the model to a schedule you can hand off

Two commands, one shared intersection engine — export the default layout, or build your own.

▤
Export Schedule

A formatted schedule, straight out of the model.

Collects every BWIC instance from the model and linked files, pairs it with the MEP service passing through, and writes a formatted Excel schedule.

  • Pipe, duct, cable tray & conduit pairing
  • Host wall / floor / beam type identified
  • Optional per-opening screenshot embedded in the row
  • Normal, per-link, and federated merge modes
DatumX Schedule Builder

Any parameter, any column, any order.

Discovers every parameter across your BWIC family instances and lets you assemble a fully custom schedule layout — header names, colours, column order — saved as a reusable profile.

  • Auto-discovers built-in and custom parameters
  • Drag-to-reorder columns with live preview
  • Profiles saved as JSON, shareable across a team
  • Numeric-aware sort by Level or Mark, ascending or descending

Why DatumX

Built for the schedule you actually have to hand off

Most exporters give you a fixed list of columns and stop there. DatumX assumes the schedule is a deliverable, not a byproduct.

▣

Photo-embedded schedules

Each row in the exported Excel schedule can carry a screenshot of that exact opening and the services running through it.

▤

Any parameter, your layout

DatumX Schedule Builder discovers every parameter on your BWIC elements and lets you assemble the exact column set your project needs — not a fixed template.

⧉

Built for federated models

Normal, per-link, and merge modes with JSON caching mean large linked models don't have to be re-scanned in full on every run.

#

Numeric-aware sorting

Sort by Level or Mark and get "2" before "10", not the other way round — ascending or descending, either field.

How it works

From linked models to a signed-off schedule

Select models

Choose the current model and any linked MEP / structural files to scan — normal, per-link, or merged federated mode.

Collect & pair

Every BWIC instance is matched with the MEP service passing through it, and its host wall, floor or beam type is identified.

Build your layout

Use the default column set, or open DatumX Schedule Builder to choose columns, order, header names and colours.

Export & re-run

Write the Excel schedule with screenshots, then re-run any time the model changes — same layout, same profile.

Early access

Built around your rollout, not a fixed tier

DatumX is in early access — pricing is scoped to your team size and how you're rolling it out, not a flat self-serve rate. Get in touch and we'll walk you through it.
