Driving digital transformation SHAPING THE ENTIRE BUILDING LIFECYCLE

Nemetschek is the innovation driver of digital transformation throughout the entire lifecycle of buildings.
As a globally active corporate group, the Nemetschek Group covers the entire lifecycle of buildings and infrastructure projects with its software solutions, thus making a significant contribution towards greater efficiency and quality as well as towards controlling time and costs in the construction sector.
In the digital age, building clients have clear requirements and expectations for the AEC industry: planning which is as creative as it is precise, an efficient building process with optimum harmonization of the trades among one another, reliable scheduling and valid cost forecasts. The prerequisite for this, however, is an open and continuous flow of all data and information between everyone involved in the process. This only succeeds if the entire lifecycle of a building is considered and digitally captured, from the initial drafts of the designers and architects, through the building process itself, all the way to the subsequent management of building once it is completed.

|---|---|---|
| Architecture and Design Offices | Building Contractors | Building Managers |
| Structural Engineers | General Managers / Contractors | Facility Managers |
| Engineers of all Types | Process Controllers | Property Managers |
| Project Developers | Plant Contractors | Building Owners |
This is precisely the unique expertise of the Nemetschek Group. With its four segments, it serves all stages of this lifecycle with solutions that are optimally tailored to the respective target and user groups and improved on an ongoing basis.
The inherent innovative power and innovative capability lie in the proximity to the customer. The common denominator of all the solutions is Open Building Information Modeling (Open BIM), a digital work method with open interfaces facilitating the crucial networking of all process stakeholders.
The only way to develop the right solutions is to maintain a close dialog with the customer and consistently align with the customer's needs. The Nemetschek Group's target groups vary widely: they range from architects and engineers from all fields to bridge and structural designers, and from steel construction builders and building material manufacturers to property developers, facility managers and appraisers for quality control.
The key to being able to serve such a broad spectrum of customers lies in the special divisional structure of the Nemetschek Group: 4 segments with 16 brands which independently serve their respective markets and customers, under the umbrella of a holding that guides the strategy. This structure guarantees a close connection with customers and a continuous exchange of ideas with the market. In addition, Nemetschek, founded in 1963, is a pioneer in the software sector and has been an institution in the AEC industry for decades. This too guarantees proximity to the customer.
Recognize demand, offer innovative solutions, successfully distribute those solutions. The economic result of this strategy is a story of sustainable growth. For years now, Nemetschek has stood for double-digit growth rates in terms of revenue, high levels of profitability, successful internationalization and an excellent reputation on the capital market.
What has been achieved is the basis for the continued successful development of the Nemetschek Group – solidly anchored in all submarkets and leading the way as an innovation driver in an industry that continues to grow.
The complete lifecycle of a building is varied. The Nemetschek Group offers a portfolio that covers all areas of design, construction and building management,from the initial idea to all the design and implementation steps and the building process all the way to management of the facility, finances, and personnel. Worldwide.
