Why is the provision of product data in GAEB format important for tradespeople?

News / Omni Channel Stream  - 
In addition to planners and architects, tradespeople also participate directly in tenders and require data and information in GAEB format.

GAEB stands for " Gemeinsamer Ausschuss Elektronik im Bauwesen". The committee is an interest group of all those involved in construction and promotes a common digital language in the construction industry. Its main task is the development and maintenance of standards for data exchange in the construction industry. A GAEB file serves as a standardised format for the exchange of construction project data between different software applications. This enables smooth communication between planners, construction companies and other parties involved and thus improves the efficiency and accuracy of construction projects.

A tradesman takes part in a tender for a house construction project. For this, he needs tender texts for a heat pump. As a manufacturer, you offer exactly this product and would like the tradesman to buy your product and use it in the tender. Both the tender and the tradesman's offer are sent in GAEB data format. To ensure that the tradesman can use and find your product, you must provide him with the product data and information as a GAEB file. The tradesman can then import this data directly into his tradesman software and take it into account when creating an offer for the tender.
