Here is a really quick but super valuable tutorial if you are using Revit and Twinmotion (actually, it may be helpful for any FBX export from Revit).
Typically, when you export a model from Revit to FBX (using the Twinmotion plugin) the project base point is your insertion point. Meaning, every mesh that comes in (even if separated but material or category) all share the same project base point in Twinmotion.
