ISO 19650-aligned processes Revit & openBIM interoperability Human-reviewed AI workflows
01STRATEGY

BIM Strategy & ISO 19650

Set the foundations for reliable delivery. We define project information requirements, BIM Execution Plans (BEP), roles, naming conventions and model standards that fit your team and project goals.

Typical outputsBEP, information requirements, delivery standards

03COORDINATION

Coordination & Model Assurance

Bring architectural, structural and MEP disciplines together. We federate models, identify clashes, manage issues and verify model quality so decisions are based on coordinated information.

Typical outputsClash reports, issue tracking, coordinated models

04INFORMATION

BIM Management & CDE

Keep project information organised and traceable. We structure Common Data Environment (CDE) workflows, responsibilities, permissions, reviews and approvals to support reliable collaboration.

Typical outputsCDE workflows, review processes, model audits

05DELIVERY

4D / 5D Planning & Cost Insights

Make model information useful beyond 3D. We connect model elements to schedules, quantities and cost data to support sequencing, change analysis and clearer construction decisions.

Typical outputs4D sequencing, quantity take-offs, cost-linked views

06LIFECYCLE

OpenBIM & Digital Twins

Turn project models into usable long-term information. We prepare interoperable IFC/BCF exchanges, structured asset data and handover workflows that support digital twins and operations.

Typical outputsIFC/BCF exchanges, asset data, handover packs

OUR APPROACH

Useful information. Verified at every step.

We start with the decisions your project needs to make, then design the models, standards and automations to support them.

  1. DefineAgree on requirements and measurable outcomes.
  2. ConnectBring models, teams and data into one workflow.
  3. ValidateCheck information, clashes and model quality.
  4. DeliverHand over reliable models and usable data.

Enterprise AI & Intelligent Operations

From institutional knowledge to operational intelligence.

Sustainable AI capability begins with knowledge that is structured, verifiable and governed.

Every organisation has accumulated a valuable body of knowledge, yet much of it remains dispersed across technical models, project records, operating procedures, business systems and individual expertise. Without a coherent way to interpret and govern that knowledge, AI cannot reliably distinguish an authoritative answer from an outdated assumption.

Digibuild architects a Company Second Brain: a permission-aware intelligence layer that connects existing sources, preserves their ownership and establishes shared context, traceable evidence and controlled access. On that foundation, we implement AI-enabled workflows and repeatable-task automation that reduce manual handling, streamline information-intensive processes and route exceptions to the right people. The objective is a durable operating capability: greater consistency, shorter decision cycles and measurable capacity returned to the business.

Architect your AI foundation Start with a governed knowledge layer and one measurable operational use case.
Authoritative contextVerified sources, version control and dependable knowledge lineage.
Security by architecturePermission-aware access, accountable ownership and controlled integration.
Evidence before outputRetrieval grounded in approved records, with traceable references.
Accountable executionHuman review, clear decision rights and observable process outcomes.
What we build

An intelligence architecture designed for the way your business operates.

The technology is only one component. We establish an enduring information foundation, connect it to the work people actually perform, and design AI capabilities around governance, interoperability, quality and a clearly defined economic outcome.

01Data foundation

Knowledge architecture & information integrity

Establish a defensible foundation for AI by identifying authoritative systems, mapping critical information assets and resolving fragmented taxonomies, duplicates, inconsistent metadata and document status. Define semantic structures, data stewardship, lifecycle rules and permission boundaries around the decisions that carry the greatest operational consequence.

Outcome: A documented knowledge architecture, accountable ownership and a sequenced readiness roadmap.
02Core service

A governed, living Company Second Brain

Design an enterprise knowledge fabric that preserves the authority of original systems while making their information available in context. Permission-aware retrieval, semantic indexing, entity relationships and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) support source-linked responses. Managed synchronisation and provenance controls help keep the knowledge layer current, inspectable and reusable.

Outcome: A shared, auditable context layer that can support multiple AI use cases without creating another isolated repository.
03AI experience

Domain-specific AI assistance & decision intelligence

Build role-specific AI assistants for project directors, engineers, technicians and operational teams. Their purpose is to assemble relevant evidence, interpret changes, identify missing information and prepare defensible recommendations within an explicitly defined scope. Outputs remain linked to their sources, with uncertainty made visible and critical decisions retained by authorised people.

Outcome: Less time reconstructing context, higher decision consistency and clearer lines of accountability.
04Workflow delivery

Intelligent workflow orchestration & systems integration

Move from analysis to controlled action. Orchestrate document validation, structured data capture, exception routing, report preparation and authorised work-order initiation across the systems already in place. Integrations use appropriate APIs and, where supported, Model Context Protocol (MCP). Every workflow has defined permissions, review checkpoints, error handling and operational telemetry.

Outcome: Repeatable, monitored processes that convert validated intelligence into measurable work.
Built for your industry

Industry intelligence grounded in operational reality.

Construction, manufacturing and retail share the challenge of fragmented information, but their decisions, constraints and risks differ. We design each knowledge model, integration and approval path around the actual operating environment — not a generic AI interface.

01 / Construction & AEC

Project intelligence across design, construction and handover.

Consolidate project context across BIM/IFC models, drawings, specifications, correspondence, RFIs, submittals and site evidence without obscuring revision history or contractual ownership. Give delivery teams a coherent view of design intent, approved changes and outstanding decisions, with source-grounded support for technical coordination and project controls.

Example workflowSurface a specification discrepancy → retrieve the relevant model and document revisions → prepare an evidence-linked RFI → route it for technical approval.
Measure the impactRFI cycle time, search effort, design coordination latency and preventable rework.
02 / Manufacturing

Make production knowledge resilient, accessible and actionable.

Connect validated operating procedures, machine documentation, maintenance histories, deviation reports and relevant ERP/MES records into a governed operational memory. Support faster root-cause investigation, knowledge transfer and maintenance preparation while preserving the discipline of engineering change control, safety rules and quality assurance.

Example workflowLog a recurring machine issue → retrieve approved procedures and prior incidents → draft a maintenance case → technician reviews and authorises the next step.
Measure the impactMean time to information, maintenance administration, handover quality and resolution cycle time.
03 / Retail & Multi-site Operations

Bring enterprise-wide intelligence to every store and team.

Connect product master data, commercial policies, store procedures, training material and permissioned inventory signals in a common, governed context layer. Give customer-facing and operations teams consistent, current guidance while enabling head office to maintain policy control, analyse recurring exceptions and improve execution across locations.

Example workflowCheck a product or policy exception → retrieve the current approved rule → prepare a store-level action → escalate to the responsible manager.
Measure the impactTime to answer, first-contact resolution, policy adherence and store support volumes.
Investment case & operational ROI

Make the investment case as rigorous as the architecture.

Technology value must be demonstrated in operating metrics: task frequency, baseline effort, error rates, quality, recoverable staff capacity and total cost of ownership. The examples below illustrate how time released from repetitive work can translate into potential first-year economic value; they are hypotheses to validate, not performance promises.

Illustrative first-year time-value and return-on-investment scenarios
IndustryExample workloadHours saved / yearValue of time / yearYear-one costIllustrative ROI
ConstructionProject information & RFI prep300 tasks/month15 minutes saved per task900 hCHF 53,550CHF 28,00091%

RetailStore queries & policy support900 tasks/month5 minutes saved per task900 hCHF 28,350CHF 18,00058%

Illustrative assumptions, not guaranteed results. Annual hours = monthly tasks × minutes saved × 12 ÷ 60. Value of time assumes only 70% of that time is economically recoverable, at indicative loaded rates of CHF 85/h (construction), CHF 70/h (manufacturing) and CHF 45/h (retail). Example year-one costs include implementation and operations. ROI = (annual recoverable time value − year-one cost) ÷ year-one cost. Actual financial benefit depends on adoption, verified time savings, redeployment of capacity and real operating costs; saved time does not automatically become cash savings.

How we work

From information disorder to a governed operating capability.

Our engagements combine information architecture, systems engineering and change management. We begin with a measurable business problem, validate the required context, establish operational safeguards and scale only after the results justify the investment.

  1. Diagnose & quantifyMap high-friction decisions, source systems and information owners; establish baseline cost, cycle time, quality and risk.
  2. Architect & connectDefine the knowledge architecture, curate approved sources and implement secure retrieval, metadata and system connectors.
  3. Pilot & governDeploy a defined use case with users, source-grounded evaluation, review gates, observability and exception handling.
  4. Measure & industrialiseVerify adoption, cycle-time change, output quality and total cost; expand only the capabilities that deliver durable value.

Make organisational knowledge a lasting competitive capability.

Begin with one process where fragmented information creates delay, uncertainty or avoidable rework. We will define the knowledge architecture, the first controlled workflow and the measures required to build a credible business case.
