For engineering firms and construction companies
From office to ERP, from BIM to calculations and drawings, from AI sessions to file sharing, chat and e-mail. The OpenAEC SuperCloud brings it all together in one European environment, with one login. IT management becomes simple.
Nothing is mandatory: start with a single tool and expand whenever you want.
Practical examples
Four examples from practice: from drawing to schedule, your administration, your files and the building site.
Four tools sharing the same data: what is drawn flows into the estimate and the schedule.
One system for the whole company, with a workspace everyone understands.
Your files in the EU, encrypted with your own key.
What is recorded on site is immediately part of the project.
The problem
35% of working time
More than 14 hours a week go into searching for project information, resolving issues and fixing mistakes.

Each program with its own login, its own interface and its own file format. What is in one has to be entered again in the next.
Proprietary file formats and licences make switching expensive. Whoever wants to move loses data or time.
How it works
One login for all apps, with two-step verification or a passkey.
A private environment in an EU data centre, encrypted with your own key.
Switch on apps from the marketplace. The standard ones are already there.
All apps read and write the same open model, so drawings, models and calculations work together without conversion.
A short 40-second film with music. Sound only starts when you press play.
Three pillars
Accounting, timesheets, purchasing, sales, HR and a knowledge base in one system, with a simple workspace for every day.
CAD, BIM, PDF, structures, energy, geotechnics and cost estimating. Open tools with open calculation rules.
Project files with versions, documents and spreadsheets, and sharing 3D models with partners.
Also available separately
You don't have to move your whole company at once. Start with one part, without a business environment.
Featured
A European alternative to the well-known services for sharing files and sending large files. Your files stay in the EU and are encrypted with your own key.
Edit documents, spreadsheets and presentations together in the browser.
Share 3D models between design applications, in your own environment.
Open PDF Studio, Open Calc Studio and viewers in the browser, with a personal account.
Credit for AI features in the apps, by default only through models in the EU.
On-premises
All apps are open source. If you want to run everything in your own server room or with your own hosting provider, you can. OpenAEC Studio BV helps with installation, management and updates.
The same open-source apps as on the SuperCloud, without depending on us.
We set up the environment and can take care of management and updates.
From on-premises to the SuperCloud or back, with a full export.
