Join the Community – Manufacturer

Do you manufacture or assemble physical products? Would you be willing to provide their digital representation for users in the digital world? You belong to the category of manufacturers.

Consider lighting, switchgear, cable management, heating boilers, heat pumps, radiators, pumps, air ducts, …

Advantages as a Manufacturer

TechBiM offers you the opportunity to search for direct approaches to all other actors in the construction process, such as complementary manufacturers and partners. However, the greatest added value is the ability for the manufacturer to have direct contact with the users, thereby strengthening that connection significantly. As a manufacturer, you can provide the data of your products in a structured manner and  make a difference in the digital world. It is therefore possible to provide compatible Specific Content:

  • in the form of Specific Object Geometries (SOG) specifically designed to create a realistic rendering;
  • in the form of Specific Objects (SO) if the generic TechBiM variants (generic objects – GO) would provide insufficient functionality.

In addition to this Specific Content (SOg and SO), you may also offer applications or services that closely align with the needs and digital practices of the users. There are already quite a number of partners in the TechBiM ecosystem who can assist you in seizing numerous opportunities as added value.

Concrete efforts

As a manufacturer of construction and installation materials, you receive requests from many stakeholders to provide your product data (technical, logistical, financial, etc.) in a format that is suitable for them and their computer systems. You cannot do this specifically for every actor who requests it.

Thanks to TechBiM and BIM standards, you have the opportunity to standardise your offer for the whole of Belgium, initially focusing on Revit users. However, TechBiM is also exploring other BIM modelling software such as BricsCad, DDS-CAD, Archicad, Vectorworks, and others.

You ensure that BIM users always have access to your most recent product data. Standardisation simplifies the structuring of your data, specific object geometries, specific objects, services, and applications as a manufacturer.

Thanks to the TechBiM initiative, we are able to offer manufacturer data in a very simple, accessible, standardised, and reliable manner, deeply embedded within the market.

By providing manufacturer data to the user, they can verify whether, for example, a fire damper meets both the requirements of ventilation and the standards for comfort.

Digitalisation allows us to offer customised products in the digital world through configurator tools on our Suite.

With the TechBiM ecosystem, we achieve a productivity gain of 25% in pre-sales, and upon project completion, we can handle matters more efficiently in post-sales and communicate better with the various stakeholders in the construction sector.

Groen Licht Vlaanderen embraces the TechBiM initiative as it aims to foster collaboration among companies regarding the standardisation of data flow.
