goBIC

The path to your AI project!

From idea to implementation

goBIC

Whether it's project planning, project management, or construction site monitoring, AI technologies enable unprecedented efficiency, precision, and transparency in the construction industry. Intelligent data analysis and automated processes based on this analysis make decisions faster, reduce cost risks, and make project management more efficient.

Customized Software Solutions

goBIC stands for customized applications that are developed collaboratively to digitize and automate processes in the construction industry.

Support from Idea to Implementation

AI projects are supported throughout all phases—from conception and data preparation to technical integration into existing systems.

Increased efficiency through AI

AI enables the efficient automation of recurring tasks in particular, thereby increasing process efficiency.

AI-supported Solutions for the entire Building Life Cycle

Why goBIC: The development and implementation of customized AI-supported software solutions automates recurring tasks and makes processes more efficient. This allows data to be used more effectively throughout the entire life cycle of buildings, enabling better-informed decisions and the sustainable optimization of projects from planning and construction to operation.

Concept development and project definition

Do you have an idea or are you facing a specific challenge? We will work with you in a workshop to develop individual potential for the use of AI. Whether process optimization, data analysis, or automation, we will develop a tailor-made, individual overall concept that fits the goals and ideas of your company.

Data collection and data curation

A reliable database is the foundation of every successful AI application. Together with our customers, we conduct a structured analysis of the current situation: We take a close look at how data is currently generated, stored, and used, and where there is potential or obstacles. The focus is primarily on data quality and automated data generation.

Modeling and development

We develop tailor-made AI solutions based on structured data, for example for the automated analysis of documents, models, or processes. We take common formats such as PDF or IFC into account and create a robust data basis. Development takes place in collaboration with our customers, using agile and iterative methods, with milestone dates and sprints, and a clear technical focus.

Scaling and implementation

Prototyping is followed by integration into your existing processes. We scale the solution and ensure the right interfaces to your systems for integration into your systems (ERP, BIM, IoT, etc.). The AI is made available for live operation, including performance checks, user guidance, and data pipeline.

Operation and monitoring

Even after implementation, AI must continue to learn. We help you operate your AI productively in everyday use, continuously improve it, and develop new use cases. Monitoring, regular model adjustments, and performance reviews are integral parts of the concept.

Example: AI-supported Quantity Determination in Building Construction

AI-supported quantity determination represents a possible use case for artificial intelligence in building construction. This example illustrates how digital processes can support the recording and evaluation of quantities from BIM models. The focus is on the basic functionality and practical benefits, without claiming to provide a complete or universally valid overview.

Step 1

Concept development and definition

A general contractor wants to speed up quantity determination from IFC models, as the manual effort involved is high and prone to errors. In a workshop with thinkBIC, the goal is defined: an AI solution that automatically extracts quantities from digital building models.

Step 2

Data collection and data curation

The standard documents available in the company are systematically reviewed and analyzed. The findings obtained are
then directly incorporated into the development process. At the same time, the existing database is cleaned up.

Step 3

Modeling and development

Existing IFC models and data are checked for completeness, standard references, and quantity specifications. Based on this, thinkBIC develops an AI module that accurately answers questions such as “How many steel columns does the ground floor have?”

Step 4

Scaling and implementation

Following successful pilot runs, the solution is seamlessly integrated into the existing process and enables the
automated output of quantity results.
The data flows directly into subsequent processes, such as purchasing, and can now be used in a standardized manner.

Step 5

Operation and monitoring of AI

AI is firmly established and is continuously expanded, to include new standard requirements. Its performance is monitored, and training courses ensure the transfer of know-how within the team to ensure simultaneous team and company development.

  • Concept development and project definition

    A general contractor wants to speed up quantity determination from IFC models, as the manual effort involved is high and prone to errors. In a workshop with thinkBIC, the goal is defined: an AI solution that automatically extracts quantities from digital building models.

  • Data Collection and Data Curation

    The standard documents available in the company are systematically reviewed and analyzed. The findings are then directly incorporated into the development process. At the same time, the existing database is cleaned up.

  • Modeling and Development

    Existing IFC models and data are checked for completeness, standard references, and quantity specifications. Based on this, thinkBIC develops an AI module that accurately answers questions such as “How many steel columns does the ground floor have?” The system combines LLMs with defined sets of rules.

  • Scaling and Implementation

    Nach erfolgreichen Pilotläufen wird die Lösung nahtlos in den bestehenden Prozess integriert und ermöglicht die automatisierte Ausgabe der Mengenergebnisse. Die Daten fließen direkt in folgende Prozesse, wie den Einkauf, und kann nun standardisiert eingesetzt werden.

  • Operation and Monitoring

    AI is firmly established in everyday planning and is continuously expanded, e.g., to include new standard requirements. Its performance is monitored, and training courses ensure the transfer of know-how within the team. In this way, the solution and the company develop in parallel.

Systematic Quality in Planning and Construction

Benefit from more efficient processes, automated workflows, and informed data-driven decisions for your projects. Take advantage of the possibilities offered by modern AI solutions to optimize the planning, construction, and operation of your buildings.
