How to keep user UCS?

When I export a Revit model to DWG, a Revit UCS user is automatically created. The export is done to work in Plant 3D. When opening the dwg file in Navisworks (append command) the user's UCS disappears and only UCS Word is present, generating errors in indicating GIS coordinates. All the coordinates of the project and the rotation in relation to True North disappear. How to import DWG with UCS user or UCS created by Revit without losing coordinate information? Navisworks only maintains the UCS word.

Unfortunately, i don't think you can.  there are not options in the File Reader settings to control the imported UCS. Your bouncing back and forth between several software (you mentioned at least 3), yes there all Autodesk, but there still different software.
