SmartCraft, a leading Nordic provider of SaaS solutions to the construction sector, has entered into a partnership with BIM-platform provider Catenda. Congrid, part of the SmartCraft group, will through this partnership provide a richer BIM experience for their customers.

In 2021 Congrid brought the BIM Viewer tool to the market, making it easier for their customer to browse 3D models on mobile devices. This means that 3D models and their information can be quickly viewed on the construction site which enables customers to utilize BIM to increase efficiency in their construction projects. 

Through the partnership Congrid will provide a BIM tool that combines the best functions of Congrid and Catenda. At the core of the product is access and managing of valuable BIM information. Users will be able to share information directly where it is needed and use 3D models as part of their quality assurance. By bringing Catenda’s BIM technology into Congrid agile web and mobile platform, users can solve problems faster with accurate information right where it's happening - on the construction site.

“We see an increasing demand from our customers to provide BIM information and capabilities into our solutions. Catenda has created a rich BIM platform that we will utilize in our offering to our customers. We would rather cooperate with the best BIM platform provider than use our own resources to catch up on their versatile platform capabilities. This way we can combine the best of our specialized digital software for construction companies with a best of breed BIM solution, which again benefits the customers”, said Gustav Line, CEO of SmartCraft

Catenda’s newly appointed CEO, Einar Gudmundsson, is enthusiastic about the agreement and believes it will mean a lot for the further digitalization of the Nordic construction industry, but also for Catenda as a company and Bimsync as a platform.

“We are proud to be a part in SmartCraft’s digital journey. In our point of view, SmartCraft shows great momentum and will to make a difference towards practical digitization. Their philosophy and technology align very well ours, and we look forward to work together and develop our solutions further”, Gudmundsson concludes.
