My mission is to make BIM data useful for every construction industry professional, daily. It is a very interesting challenge, and not just a technical one. During the last 20 years there has been, and still is, a lot to learn. I hope Simplebim Community will be a place not just for individuals learn about open, centralized and automated BIM data processing, but even more importantly, all of us to learn from each other.
