Nemetschek Group is a vendor of software for architects, engineers and the construction industry.[5] The company develops and distributes software for planning, designing, building and managing buildings and real estate, as well as for media and entertainment.[6]

History

The company was founded by Prof. Georg Nemetschek in 1963 and went by the name of Ingenieurbüro für das Bauwesen (engineering firm for the construction industry), focusing on structural design. The engineering firm was one of the first companies in the industry to use computers and developed software for engineers, initially for its own requirements. In 1977 Nemetschek started distributing its program system Statik 97/77 for civil engineering.

At the Hanover Fair in 1980, Nemetschek presented a software package for the integrated calculation and design of standard components for solid construction. This was the first time that it was possible to use Computer-aided engineering (CAE) on microcomputers, and the product remained unique on the market for many years.

Nemetschek AG headquarters in Munich

In 1981 Nemetschek Programmsystem GmbH was founded and was responsible for software distribution; Georg Nemetschek's engineering firm continued to be in charge of program development. The main product, Allplan – a CAD system for architects and engineers, was launched in 1984. This allowed designers to model buildings in three dimensions. Nemetschek began to expand internationally in the 80s: by 1996 the company had subsidiaries in eight European countries and distribution partners in nine countries in Europe, and since 1992 has also had an additional development site in Bratislava, Slovakia. The first acquisitions were made at the end of the 90s, e.g. the structural design program vendor Friedrich + Lochner.

The company, operating as Nemetschek AG since 1994, went public in 1999 and has been listed in the Prime Standard market segment and the TecDAX in Frankfurt ever since. A series of company takeovers were to follow, the largest acquisitions including the American Diehl Graphsoft (now Vectorworks) and MAXON Computer GmbH with its Cinema 4D software for visualization and animation. The next major takeovers occurred in 2006 with the purchases of the Hungarian Graphisoft with its key product ArchiCAD and the Belgian SCIA International.

In November 2013 Nemetschek acquired the MEP software provider Data Design System (DDS).[7] On 31 October 2014 the acquisition of Bluebeam Software, Inc. was concluded.[8] At the end of 2015 Solibri was acquired.[9] Since 2016, the company is operating as Nemetschek SE. Later that year SDS/2 was acquired. dRofus and RISA became members of the Nemetschek Group in 2017. MCS Solutions was acquired in 2018 and later rebranded 'Spacewell'. Currently, the Nemetschek Group consists of 16 brands which are located along the whole building lifecycle - from planning to operating a building.

In the last years, further acquisitions were completed on brand level, such as Redshift Rendering Technologies or Red Giant who both were acquired by Maxon.

Since Sept. 18, 2018, Nemetschek is listed in the MDAX in addition to its TecDAX listing.

Among others, Nemetschek is a member of the BuildingSMART e.V. and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Nachhaltiges Bauen (DGNB) (German Sustainable Building Council), actively advocating for open Building Information Modeling (BIM) standards ("open BIM") in the AEC/O industry.

Business units

Since 2008, Nemetschek AG has acted as a holding company with four business units: Planning & Design (Architecture and Civil Engineering), Build & Construct, Manage & Operate as well as Media & Entertainment. The holding company maintains 16 product brands.[10]
