dRofus is the leading planning and data management software for the global building industry. Planning & Design teams collaborate inside the software to capture functional, equipment and engineering requirements, then use that information to inform the design by utilizing dRofus comprehensive, bi-directional BIM plug-ins.
Planning data evolves into design data, which the Contractor builds upon and utilizes for various downstream construction processes. Procurement teams view the data through a different lens and utilize the information for purchasing and to establish the Asset Register.
Capturing Asset Information Requirements is a core part of dRofus software. Asset and Product data combined with planning, design, engineering and construction data provides a golden thread of information that is linked together with models, documentation and now the VBIS Classification too.
Building Owners get the data they need, in the format they need for ongoing use during the operations phase and by supporting all stakeholders and actors within projects, dRofus provides a high return on investment, a single source of truth and platform that supports many workflows and processes.
“Complex projects require robust and well-informed guidelines and standards. We are continually looking for ways to get involved with and support government-backed initiatives and believe that making VBIS Standard Information available to our customers, will provide them with a really great option for the organisation and delivery of their project data”.
Chris Razzell, Managing Director at dRofus.
