I need to move a series of elements in an IFC file to have a local x,y,z values set to Zero. I would then fan them out into individual ifles with a result of each files geometry being close locol 0,0,0 in each file.
Any transformer that would move the elements to 0,0,0 would be helpful.

If you need to move a point geometry to (0, 0, 0), use the CoordinateExtractor to extract (x, y, z) values of the point, and then use the Offsetter to offset it by (-x, -y, -z). To fan them out, consider using fanout option of the writer.
But the current FME seems not to support writing IFC dataset. Which format dataset do you need to write? Industry Foundation Class STEP Files (IFC) Reader http://docs.safe.com/fme/html/FME_ReadersWriters/Default.htm#ifc/ifc.htm

Nescessity for extraction of coordinates depends on geometry type.
