Cadac Organice Serves the Largest Builder in the Netherlands

After wide experience with Cadac Organice in multiple projects, BAM Woningbouw and BAM Utiliteitsbouw have decided to rollout Cadac Organice and SharePoint throughout their operating companies.

Cadac Organice BNL BV, distributor of Cadac Organice BV, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner and developer of Cadac Organice, a SharePoint based engineering document management solution, provides its services already successfully to BAM Woningbouw and BAM Utiliteitsbouw. Based on this success also other operating companies of Royal BAM Group are considering the use of Cadac Organice.

BAM Woningbouw (housing) was already in 2006 one of the first Dutch construction companies that choose to manage their project documents with Microsoft SharePoint. Since they felt that SharePoint out-of-the-box did not bring them the user friendliness and navigation they were looking for, BAM choose the Cadac Organice Explorer client, which enhanced the SharePoint user experience for their users. Stefan van de Valk, ICT Manager BAM Woningbouw: “By using Cadac Organice, BAM Woningbouw is able to manage the increasing amount of information that is processed day in day out.”

Two years later BAM Utiliteitsbouw (utilities) chooses SharePoint and Cadac Organice. The first project that used Cadac Organice was the extension of the Radboud Hospital in Nijmegen. The big advantages for the users were the easy way to work with documents through metadata, the visual folder structure, and the internal viewer to view drawings. In addition Cadac Organice Transmit is used to efficiently distribute documents to project partners. Cees Rens, ICT Manager BAM Utiliteitsbouw: “With Cadac Organice we are able to improve our business process in an early stage of the project. And that immediately brings us benefits.”

Due to the success of Cadac Organice in the multiple projects, BAM Woningbouw and BAM Utiliteitsbouw have decided to rollout Cadac Organice and SharePoint throughout their operating companies. In addition other operating companies of the Royal BAM Group are considering the use of Cadac Organice.

Ben Spreen, Sales Manager Cadac Organice BNL: “We are very proud and pleased that the largest builder in the Netherlands and one of the largest construction companies in Europe has chosen our Product Suite”.
