Sofistik IFC - Open BIM

Good day,

I’m trying to understand if it’s possible to create IFC analytical models in Revit or other BIM software, and what steps are needed to make them work in SOFiSTiK without using the analytical model generator plugin from sofistik. My question is more focused on working with Open BIM. What do I need to create analytical model IFC files that could work in the SOFiSTiK desktop app? For example, if I create a model in Tekla or another BIM software, how can I use this model for design in SOFiSTiK? What options do I have? What is the procedure? Do I always need to use Revit and work with the SOFiSTiK plugins, or is there a way to focus more on the Open BIM approach? like creating anlytical models in a ifc file and be able to open it and use it in sofistik?

thank you very much
