Bouygues Construction and datBIM announce the signature of a three-year partnership agreement intended to allow them to pool their work on the development of structured access by users of BIM (Building Information Modelling) to the product data catalogues of suppliers and construction SMEs. Bouygues Construction and datBIM share a common vision of BIM, which is based on the importance of structured access to product data and the need to involve the entire construction industry in this approach, particularly SMEs. Bouygues Construction has been committed to the principles of BIM since the early 2000s, and now actively uses the approach in all its projects.

This new partnership, forming part of its open innovation strategy, marks a further step in integrating BIM in the construction sector and in involving suppliers in this key innovation.
