The architecture and engineering company was a pioneer in Spain in the BIM employment for the design and management of building projects, with more than 3 million square meters modeled to date
BOD, the Spanish company specializing in the development of architectural and engineering solutions applied to complex projects of relevant buildings, has carried out a remodeling of its corporate image, which has been extended to all media. communication that the brand uses, such as social networks, and which have as core the company’s website. This has undergone a new design and a new configuration of its contents in order to project more effectively and eloquently, through any device, the value proposal of BOD in the fields of architecture and engineering.
“BOD wants to lead this new expansive phase of the market and for this it is essential to project with strength those values that differentiate us and that have made us reliable as travel companions for some of the most notorious firms in the real estate, industrial and healthcare sectors”, says Javier Bartolomé, CEO of BOD.
BOD was founded as an architecture company in 1985, and initially had the vision to incorporate in its structure engineers from all disciplines involved in a building project in order to offer customers integral solutions that work. Likewise, the company was a pioneer in Spain in BIM employment in the fields of design and construction project management. A decade ago he started using this collaborative methodology, and since then he has modeled more than 3 million square meters.
Precisely, the fact of integrating expert professionals in its structure in all the key disciplines involved in the phases of building creation and execution, such as architecture, structure, mechanical or electrical, allows BOD to offer its customers turnkey solutions. Currently, BOD is organized into three business areas, specialized in offering adapted and specific solutions for each type of client. This is the Corporate Venues, Hotels and Retail Area; the Area of Industry, Pharma and Logistics, and the Area of Spaces for Citizenship and the Family.
“Constant innovation, as well as the precision and quality of our projects, are some of the features that define us and encourage us to continue moving forward. We were the first to integrate architects and engineers into a single team, as well as incorporating BIM into our working model. And that non-conformist feeling to always remain at the top of excellence is a constant of our character as a company and has earned us the loyalty of our customers, “adds Javier Bartolomé.
The company owes the design of some of the most complex and well-known corporate buildings that have been made in Spain in recent years, including the Renault headquarters in Madrid, the Vía Norte Business Park, also in the capital of Spain, or the complete remodeling of the Torre de Madrid for its conversion into a hotel operated by the Barceló tourist group. It has also made the BIM models of the BBVA Data Processing Center, in Madrid, or the Exhibit Building of the Botín Foundation in Santander, to name just a few national projects.
In recent years, BOD has reinforced its strategy to become one of the most important agents in the digitization of the building sector in Spain. For this, its investments in R + D + i represent, in a sustained manner, more than 3% of its turnover. “After a few years focused on turning BIM into a productive method and technology in the design phase, BOD’s Digital Transformation team is currently focused on the completion of cloud applications aimed at users, owners or operators. of final buildings of the buildings can take advantage of all the benefits that BIM provides in key aspects, such as the digital representation of assets, and this in a transparent and intuitive way in its use “, explains Javier Bartolomé.
“The building sector is currently experiencing a very interesting moment, focused mainly on the segments of office and industrial building, and very focused on Madrid and Barcelona. In this greater dynamism both the rising phase of the economic cycle in which we find ourselves, as well as the growing extension of e-commerce, which causes the need to increase the existing logistic base, or the Brexit phenomenon, which has placed Spain in the point of view of some companies to relocate their corporate headquarters, “he concludes.
