For years, the construction industry has faced the great challenge of increasing productivity. Only 30% of the time effectively used by construction companies is spent on the execution of the construction. The rest of the time is used for:
Civil Engineering
The need for increased productivity
- Site visits and inspections
- Transport of building materials
- Site visits and inspections
- Transport of building materials
Compared to other industrial sectors, productivity growth in the construction sector is low. There are many reasons for this:
- The high complexity of construction projects
- The lack of technical standards and data formats of construction drawings; data and information exchange of construction plans or their archiving
- Difficulties in communication between the various stakeholders such as builders, contractors, architects, specialist planners or craftsmen
The degree of digitisation in the construction industry is still very low compared to other sectors, although the industry has recognised the potential of digital transformation.
Digitisation in the building industry - opportunities for higher productivity
Innovative into the future
The time is ideal for change. The digital construction industry is the
key component to improve the productivity and communication of
various partners in the building industry!
Key component Technology
Using the right digital technologies in the construction industry
processes can be made more efficient and communication channels
simplify – no matter whether you are a builder, architect, engineer or building contractor,
are craftsmen or building suppliers.
Digitisation in practice
From simple sketches on paper to vivid 3D models, from
Sample buildings on virtual reality, from telephone calls to interactive online
Collaborations, from double meter to 3D scanning – go with us
the step into the digital future.
Your advantages
With solutions tailored to your needs, we provide you with better access to your data and give you the opportunity to communicate more efficiently with your partners. Our goal is to increase the efficiency in your company.
Target group oriented visualisation
- Virtual tour for building owners
- Collaborative work on 3D model for specialist planners
- Creation of parts lists, automatic quantity calculation of cubature and areas
Elimination of repetitive work
- Multiple entry of building plans in different departments
- File conversion, import and export of CAD files
- Sending the latest construction documents
- Automatic calculation of building materials in the event of changes to the building plan
Central storage of data
- Ensures access to current plans, documents and parts lists for all stakeholders
Together we can achieve cost reduction, risk minimisation and increased quality and transparency for future construction projects for you and your company.
Our competences
In our construction industry team, we combine the innovative power, personality and flexibility of a start-up with the competence and professionalism of an established consulting firm. We support you throughout the entire digitalisation process. Our competencies include:
- Identify, implement and maintain new technologies relevant to the construction industry
- Enabling target group-specific visualisations of construction projects in the fields of 3D, VR (Virtual Reality), or AR (Augmented Reality)
- Prompt implementation of customer-specific requirements and software solutions using state-of-the-art technologies such as
- xBIM (eXtensible Building Information Modelling)
A freely available software library for reading, creating and viewing BIM data using Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). The library can be used as BIM middleware for IFC-based applications. - WebGL / Three.js
Using the library enables the web-based display and animation of 3D models.
- IFcOpenShell
A freely available software library for generating 3D data from IFC file formats - BIM Server
An open-source server application for managing BIM data. - Cloud-based Solutions
A delocalised, elastic, scalable computing capacity, which we use for the development and support of customer applications
- As an ISO-certified company, we are familiar with the identification of relevant standards and norms
- Managing BIM data and ensuring data availability with cloud-based solutions

BIM (– BAM – BOOM)
BIM (Building Information Modeling) is not just a 3D model of a building, but a holistic process tool.
BIM’s common database enables the uniform exchange of information between the various partners such as builders, planners, suppliers, contractors and operators. This innovative and yet pragmatic solution combines all relevant building and facility information of a property in a processed form that can be used by all parties involved.
The process of information exchange covers the entire life cycle of a construction project: from the first sketch of ideas to the completion of the building (BAM – Building Assembly Modelling) to maintenance in the facility sector (BOOM – Building operational & organisational modelling).
Building twice: The development of a project using BIM can be experienced and designed more intensively and efficiently. With BIM, the building is created in all its dimensions – space, time and costs – right from the planning phase. We accompany you into the BIM worlds where your ideas take shape!
