Architosh Analysis

We know that Graphisoft in particular has signed several China-related strategic partnerships over the past few years regarding BIM within the AEC industry in Asia. This Nemetschek AG (Nemetschek Group) partnership goes beyond just ArchiCAD in China, it also involves Vectorworks Architect, Scia, ALLPLAN and other “group technologies” for the AEC industry. While unspecific in detail, the partnership should sprout numerous growth directions for BIM participants, including the companies of the Nemetschek AG group. CABR stands for China Academy of Building Research and has accumulated more than 1,000 scientific research standards and has won hundreds of awards. It is also the maker of PKPM CAD, which is a collection of buildings, structures, equipment design and more and has tens of thousands of users all in one integrated CAD system. It’s market coverage in China is more than 95 percent. You can learn more here: www.pkpm.cn
