The BuildTec Software Group and DigiPara GmbH are joining forces to offer customers even better software solutions that precisely meet their needs.
DigiPara GmbH, based in Frechen, is specialized in the field of building information modelling (BIM) for lifts and escalators. The experts develop BIM-optimised programs for the efficient planning and configuration of lifts. The company has been in business for around 35 years, lift manufacturers and architects worldwide use the two solutions DigiPara Liftdesigner and DigiPara Elevatorarchitect. As part of the integration into the BuildTec Software Group, DigiPara AG was transformed into DigiPara GmbH.
The software with intelligent BIM model supports 3D designs and the entire 2D planning process. BIM ensures an easy and smooth collaboration, so that the lift and escalator configuration process can be simplified and accelerated with the tools. "I am very excited about the integration of DigiPara into the Buildtec Software Group. This development offers our employees and customers an added level of security.," says Andreas Fleischmann, CEO of DigiPara GmbH, adding: "I am thrilled about the new opportunities that this partnership opens up: Software development cycles can be accelerated, and the quality of our BIM products further improved; this guarantees our customers more efficient and powerful software solutions."
Adding the intelligent BIM solutions of DigiPara GmbH to its portfolio, the fast-growing BuildTec Group has expanded its brand family again. The Danish software company Acies A/S recently joined the BuildTec Group. Previously, in January 2024, BuildTec had acquired the German company GLASER Programmsysteme GmbH, a specialist for the development and distribution of professional CAD solutions, and in November 2023, E-KOMPLET A/S, a Danish software provider for project management in the trade sector.
The BuildTec Software Group is backed by the Bregal Unternehmerkapital funds. It brings together well-known industry leaders, including SEMA, the world's leading provider of CAD/CAM software solutions for timber and staircase construction and sheet metal processing, and the SEMA partner company WGsystem, a provider of commercial software solutions for trade businesses. Compass, the premium software provider for staircase, timber and window construction with a focus on CNC connections and workshop organization, and Hausmann & Wynen, which offers ERP solutions tailored for electricians and other trade businesses, are also part of BuildTec.
