TU Wien Becomes ACCA Software’s Technological Partner

ACCA software continues to strengthen its international presence, consolidating its role through a new and prestigious partnership. The Technische Universität Wien (TU Wien), one of the most authoritative technical universities in Europe, officially joins the ACCA software Technological Partner Network.

The collaboration between ACCA software and TU Wien has been active for several years and has progressively strengthened through joint research and experimentation activities in the field of digitization of construction processes and openBIM. The signing of the technological partnership agreement therefore represents an important formal step that confirms and further structures an already existing relationship, placing it within an increasingly extensive and strategic international network.

Advanced research and development of openBIM standards

The research group at TU Wien uses the ACCA software solutions, and in particular usBIM.IDS, in its study and development activities related to open standards for the construction sector.

One of the areas of greatest interest concerns the evolution of the IDS (Information Delivery Specification) schema promoted by buildingSMART International. In this context, researchers at TU Wien are actively working on extending the standard and regularly use usBIM.IDS for verification, validation, and control of information requirements.

ACCA software and TU Wien partnership

The formalization of the partnership stems from a shared desire to give further structure and continuity to an already active relationship, promoting the dissemination of digital technologies and openBIM methodologies through research, training, experimentation, and technology transfer activities.

Thanks to this collaboration, it will be possible to:

• promote the dissemination of digital skills in the AECO sector;
• strengthen the dialogue between universities, research centers, and professionals;
• develop new use cases and experimental activities based on open standards;
• contribute to the evolution of BIM technologies and processes;
• create new collaboration opportunities at the international level.

The formal admission of TU Wien into the Technological Partner Network confirms ACCA software’s commitment to building a global ecosystem capable of connecting research, innovation, and the professional world. Universities, research centers, and stakeholders in the AECO sector are indeed fundamental actors in accelerating the digital transformation of the construction sector and promoting an increasingly widespread use of open standards.

ACCA software is proud to formalize the collaboration with TU Wien among the Technological Partners and to continue together a path already initiated that aims to develop new knowledge, new skills, and new opportunities for the future of BIM and openBIM.
