dRofus

dRofus is a software product for managing the programme and data of building projects, from early briefing to completion and afterwards. Teams use it to plan, record and document the rooms, functions, equipment, systems and components in a building. Its database lets everyone on a project work from the latest data.

What dRofus offers

• Requirements capture — one place to hold project requirements and apply design standards across a portfolio.
• Design validation — checking design data against the programme.
• BIM links — direct connections to Revit Architecture, Revit MEP and ArchiCAD, plus IFC import and export with a built-in viewer.
• Collaboration — shared access to room information for all project parties.
• Languages — available in Norwegian, English, Swedish, Danish, Dutch, German, French and Spanish.

Who it works with

Clients use it to capture requirements, architects and engineers to support their work, and contractors to deliver projects. It has been used on hospital projects and on very large building schemes.
