Why the Simplebim Community

We’ve all seen it: raw BIM data is complex, incomplete, and often hard to use. While modelling is becoming widespread, turning BIM data into useful and scalable value is still a challenge across the industry.

We believe there is a better way to work with BIM data - and that this next step can only happen together.

The Simplebim Community is where BIM data processing moves forward collaboratively. It’s a place to grow by discovering practical best practices and ready to use dataflows, to share approaches and real world workflows, to connect with data practitioners across the entire construction lifecycle, and to belong to a trusted group where each contribution matters. 
Most importantly, it’s a place to shape the future of our industry: open, automated, centralized, and shareable BIM data processing is the next necessary leap for real digitalization in construction. 

By exchanging and experimenting together, we help each other - and our industry - move ahead.

We are glad to host the "first global Community around BIM data competence".
If this sounds like your way, then you belong there.

This ensures that the correct amount is ordered and prevents excess materials from piling up unnecessarily.” Juho Kuokkanen, Quattroservices Oy, Jorvi Hospital construction site. The main contractor for this HUS Helsinki University...
