& strategy Group vision Our mission is to be the world leader in CAD* / CAE* / CAM* software products for the construction industry. We will reach this objective with continue! innovation in products and services that automate work and improve construction industry productivity. With significant investment in R&D, we have developed a BIM (Building Information Modeling) technology that features a rules based secure synchronized process between CAD and Analysis. This ensures continuous and correct project communication up and downstream from design to construction to substantially reduce...

Growing to ensure long-term stability Innovating for increased productivity in structural design and construction The development and implementation of our solutions involve massive Research and Development teams and infrastructures, which could not be deployed without having an international scope. This international deployment is accompa-nied by a development policy of regional agencies. Supported by a group of major investors, Graitec is expanding with internal growth and external acquisitions. The Group currently owns 12 subsidiaries and collaborates with a growing network of over 40...
