What BIMoffice does

Run your practice and your projects in a single business environment

From design to handover, BIMoffice centralises the data, documents and processes that drive the work of architects and project management teams.

Project and stakeholder management, written documents, specifications, tendering, bid analysis, correspondence, site supervision, site reports, schedules, handover, snags, fees and invoicing: one consistent environment, without multiplying files, re-entry and standalone apps.

Centralised, accessible project information

Projects, tasks, stakeholders, documents, emails, technical data and administrative information stay linked to the job. Setting a current project switches you instantly to the right environment.

Spend less time looking for information and more time on the project.

More reliable data to run the practice

The stakeholder audit flags duplicates and administrative data to check; statistics and new tools make the partner directory easier to use.

Emails are linked to projects: every job has a structured memory.

AI supporting project management

Analysis of technical proposals during bid review, vectorised libraries to make use of business knowledge, scheduling assistance.

The aim is not to replace professional expertise, but to speed up analysis and decision-making.

From technical studies to environmental data

Integration of INIES codes (the French environmental product database) links items in technical libraries to the matching environmental references.

Improvements to BatiCCTP, the libraries and the BIM link strengthen continuity between specifications, technical data and the digital model.

Contractor tendering: analyse, compare, negotiate

Bid entry and analysis, TCO, Excel data import, AI-assisted analysis of technical proposals and improved negotiation stages.

Information stays linked to the project, from the tender file to contractor selection.

From office to site: BIMoffice goes mobile

Site reports usable on the move and offline, with photos embedded, annotated and optimised for sharing.

Schedules make it easier to track actual site progress.

From handover to the end of the defects warranty

Snags are recorded, classified, documented, located, assigned to work packages and tracked over time.

Dates, notifications, deadlines and participants stay centralised: full traceability through to the end of the one-year defects warranty.

E-invoicing

Factur-X, connection to approved platforms and a new exchange tool: sales invoices are prepared and sent from BIMoffice, and incoming invoices are retrieved, checked and previewed before being recorded.

Linking purchase invoices to payment proposals strengthens administrative and financial continuity.

Much more than management software

BIMoffice's strength lies in how its features connect: a single job is followed from creation to financial management, through studies, tendering, site work and handover.

  • Less re-entry
  • Less scattered information
  • More traceability
  • More continuity between office and site
  • Smarter use of data

CADatWORK Learning helps you discover, roll out and get to grips with BIMoffice, adapting it to your practice's organisation and methods.

What's new · October 2026

What's new in BIMoffice

From October 2026, BIMoffice V3 brings six major improvements for architecture practices and project management teams.

  1. 01

    Artificial intelligence truly arrives in BIMoffice

    AI now supports several processes: analysis of contractors' technical proposals, use of the knowledge stored in libraries, and scheduling assistance. BIMoffice moves from storing and managing data to helping you make use of it.

  2. 02

    True digital continuity across the project

    Instead of juggling Word, Excel, email, network folders and specialised apps, information stays attached to the project from start to finish:

    Stakeholders → project → specifications → tendering → bid analysis → negotiation → site → handover → snags → one-year defects warranty → financial management

  3. 03

    The construction site goes mobile

    Site reports, photos, annotations, schedules and site information are used directly in the field — with offline access to site reports.

  4. 04

    Handover becomes a fully digital process

    BIMoffice no longer stops at site supervision: it covers handover and snags — their location, classification, resolution and follow-up — through to the end of the one-year defects warranty.

  5. 05

    E-invoicing built into the practice

    Factur-X and connection to approved platforms: fee notes and payment requests are sent in a few clicks, with no risk of duplicates. Incoming invoices are retrieved and previewed before being recorded. Project and financial management come closer together.

  6. 06

    Built-in support: BIMoffice Center

    Direct access to support from within the application, with centralised tickets, history and progress tracking.
