What is dRofus?

Meet dRofus: Your Building Data Management Platform

dRofus is a purpose-built requirements and data management platform for AEC professionals. It captures building programming, design requirements, asset specifications, and construction data in a structured, accessible format that travels seamlessly through the entire building lifecycle.

Core Functions:

: Capture and maintain programming requirements from initial planning through design
: Define and enforce consistent data protocols and asset identification
: Automate asset tagging in accordance with your classification system of choice.
: Seamlessly integrate with BIM tools (ArchiCAD, Revit) with bi-directional synchronization and support for the latest versions including Revit 2026 and ArchiCAD 26.
: Comprehensive audit trails of all modifications, decisions, and approvals.
: Validate and deliver complete, formatted data for operational systems.
: Maintain structured data beyond construction into facility operations and ongoing management through dTwin.

What Becomes Possible

With Complete Data: What Your Digital Twin Will Deliver

The combined power of the integrated solutions dRofus and dTwin brings scenarios to life that take building management to a new level.

Scenario 1: Maintenance That Works

With dRofus-provided asset specifications and baselines, dTwin as your master asset database and digital twin, your building operations become intelligent. models move from theoretical to practical. You predict failures because you understand exactly how systems should perform.

Potential Benefits:

Reduction in maintenance-related downtime
Reduction in emergency repairs
Extended equipment life cycles
Optimized maintenance staffing and scheduling

Scenario 2: Energy Optimization with Confidence

dTwin models energy consumption using complete, accurate system specifications. from dRofus. Optimization recommendations are grounded in real system design, not estimates.

Potential Benefits:

Energy consumption reduction
Improved sustainability performance
Faster ROI on efficiency investments
Automated ESG/sustainability reporting

Scenario 3: Regulatory Compliance Made Simple

dRofus maintains comprehensive audit trails that automatically generate compliance documentation. dTwin shows performance against specifications.

Potential Benefits:

Audit-ready documentation generated automatically
Evidence of compliance and performance
Reduced compliance effort and cost
Simplified regulatory reporting

Scenario 4: Data-Driven Capital Planning

Organizations managing multiple facilities use dRofus + dTwin to benchmark performance across properties and make data-informed investment decisions.

Potential Benefits:

Objective basis for prioritizing capital investments
Evidence-based ROI for facility improvements
Optimized capital allocation across portfolio

Real-World Impact

Proven Results from Leading Organizations

Case Study 1: Glasblokkene Trinn 2 Hospital, Bergen, Norway

Helse Bergen HF implemented dRofus as the master asset database for the Glasblokkene Trinn 2 project—the largest construction project in the region for nearly 40 years. The 50,000 square meter children's hospital required centralized data management across all stakeholders from early planning through construction and into operations, with total investment costs of NOK 5.4 billion (approximately USD 661 million).

Project Details:

Client: Helse Bergen HF
Size: 50,000 m²
Timeline: Phase 1 (2011-2016), Phase 2 (2017-2022), Occupancy August 2023
Budget: NOK 5.4 billion (USD 661 million)
Scope: Children's hospital including outpatient clinics, operating rooms, X-ray departments, intensive care units

Results:

Golden Thread of Data: dRofus created a unified master asset database connecting all project data from early planning through design, engineering, construction, and into facility operations—providing a single source of truth across all project phases.
No handover moving into operation! With dRofus dTwin as the master asset database also in operations, the hospital started the operation phase on the data and models created in the project.
100% Digital Delivery: The project was exclusively digital with no printed drawings used at any stage of construction. All documentation was delivered and controlled before work started on site, unlike traditional approaches where documentation is delivered after building completion
Real-Time Project Visibility: Live cross-disciplinary dashboards built on dRofus data enabled all contractors, project leaders, and owner representatives to see exact construction progress at any time. Subcontractors could plan work more efficiently by seeing when other trades had finished
Enhanced Collaboration: Contractors could create and update data within consultants' models—a unique feature that improved cross-discipline coordination. Teams could assign responsibilities for different element data, generate unique equipment IDs automatically, and update object status in real-time
Complete FM Documentation: The master asset database delivered audit-ready, complete facility management documentation at project completion, planned for integration with FM and building control systems via API connections throughout the operational phase
Cost Savings and Better Control: The data-first digital twin approach helped avoid data silos and resulted in significant cost savings, better project control throughout construction, and substantially improved outcomes for all stakeholders

Case Study 2: Auckland Airport

Airport operator used dRofus dTwin as "data normalization hub" to standardize information across 1,700 hectares and 170,000 square meters of facilities, supporting a $2 billion capital works program.

Results:

80% reduction in rework orders compared to non-openBIM projects
80% reduction in transportation costs through improved material ordering
Final costs estimated at 10% below initial budget
Winner of BuildingSMART International 2020 Award in Asset Management category
Foundation for integrated Built Asset Information Management System
Over 100 IFC models spanning various design disciplines
