ACCA software in Tokyo for the buildingSMART International Summit 2026
Platinum Sponsor and openBIM Awards finalist: ACCA software takes centre stage once again at the buildingSMART International Summit
ACCA software will participate in the buildingSMART International Summit 2026, taking place in Tokyo from October 6 to 8, 2026 at Bellesalle Haneda Airport.
Three days of international discussion will focus on openBIM®, open standards, and the interoperability of digital processes across the building and infrastructure sectors.
The buildingSMART International Summit
The buildingSMART International Summit is a major global event dedicated to the digital transformation of the construction and infrastructure industries.
Held twice a year in different cities around the world, the Summit brings together professionals, companies, technology providers, researchers, public-sector representatives, and other industry stakeholders to exchange experiences, present projects, and share best practices in the adoption of open standards and interoperable digital processes.
The 2026 edition, under the theme “openBIM: Built on Tradition, Shaping the Future” explores the evolution of openBIM® standards and their role in creating increasingly integrated, collaborative, and connected digital workflows.
The role of ACCA software: Platinum Sponsor and technical contributor
ACCA software is participating in the Summit as a Platinum Sponsor, supporting the event and contributing to three central themes for the evolution of openBIM®: data quality, Geospatial Digital Twins, and the integration of artificial intelligence agents. An opportunity to share experiences and solutions with the international community and to discuss the use of open standards in design, construction, and management of works.
The program includes two technical presentations by ACCA software:
- “Geospatial Digital Twin openBIM: from models to processes, without limits of scale” (Geospatial Digital Twin openBIM: from models to processes, without limits of scale): scheduled for Tuesday, October 6, in the session from 14:00 to 15:30, the presentation explores the transition from digital models to the management of processes and information at different scales. It fits within the session dedicated to the adoption of openBIM® by public clients;
- “Stop Checking IFC Files One by One: scaling openBIM Data Quality” (Stop checking IFC files one by one: making openBIM data quality scalable): scheduled for Wednesday, October 7, in the session from 09:00 to 10:30, the presentation addresses the issue of data quality and how to extend checks to an increasing number of models, overcoming the verification of IFC files one by one.
usIFC.MCPserver among the openBIM Awards 2026 finalists
ACCA software is also among the finalists of the openBIM Awards 2026 in the Technology category with “usIFC.MCPserver: AI agents into openBIM”, the project dedicated to the integration of artificial intelligence agents in openBIM® processes.
Established in 2014 by buildingSMART International, the openBIM Awards recognize excellence, innovation, and best practices in the application of openBIM® in the construction, engineering, and architecture sectors.
The project presentation to the international jury is scheduled for Wednesday, October 7, in the session dedicated to finalists in the Technology and Design for Buildings categories, from 11:00 to 12:30. The announcement of the winners is expected on Thursday, October 8, during the awards ceremony.
Being selected as a finalist provides ACCA software with an opportunity to present its work on the integration of artificial intelligence and open standards to an international audience and to contribute to the ongoing discussion about the future of digital construction.
