It is our vision:

• To digitise the construction industry.
• Тo support the implementation of BIM in the construction sector. We stand firmly behind standardisation and digitalisation as means to optimising the AEC industry.
• To focus on providing all industry actors with the most relevant product data – crucial for the application of more rigorous digital processes.
• To achieve the highest possible compatibility of our software products to the principles of common data sharing and openBIM.
• To constantly improve our product portfolio and thus help all actors in the construction supply chain to collect, use and exchange structured data effortlessly, transparently and reliably.
• To go beyond providing solutions at the national level and to have our software platforms gradually implemented internationally.

Below you can find the simple but demanding values that we at coBuilder are committed to follow and the kind of brand we are determined to be:

• Collaborative – each building project is dependent on the collaboration and the communication between various actors. Through cooperation we aim to build an information future that allows a seamless exchange of digital data across the different roles involved in the built environment.
• Innovative – or in other words not just to be able to discover new horizons that others cannot see, but also to turn them into practical products with actual efficiency benefits for all industry players.
• Competent – we have in-depth knowledge and experience about the industry’s product information needs; every single employee of coBuilder is involved in the search of better digital processes and ideas that will change the way we build today for the better.
• Sustainable – coBuilder is devoted to developing products that enable, enhance and promote the construction of environmental/sustainable buildings and infrastructure.

Right from the start coBuilder has aimed to develop and implement product information systems and solutions that are kept up-to-date by means of well-organized routines. Market-driven demands, environmental requirements and the commitment to sustainability have put companies through complex challenges requiring adaptive and reliable solutions. By observing and participating in the industry development over time, we have created a comprehensive technology for providing relevant digital data about any product on its way through the supply chain.

• 2013 – BASS evolves into – a chemicals’ management system intended to cover the needs of the European construction related to the EU regulations in the construction industry.
• 2009 – an agreement is signed establishing the use of BASS in the automotive industry; BASS is granted EU funds for the further development of a solution for the European construction industry.
• 2007 – a new push from the market to have the link between products and their relevant documents determines the next step – BASS starts to evolve as a digital database with a cutting-edge document linking functionality.
• 2001 – BASS is introduced as the first chemical information system in Norway, entirely supported by all major construction associations.
• 2000 – a step is made further from the CD-ROM to web-based technology.
• 1997 – coBuilder is established. The business kicks off by introducing its first digital tool – a database for construction products, developed to answer the increasing architects’ demand and provided on a CD.
