RIB Software SE (RIB) signs a Phase-II-contract (No. 46 / 2021) with DEGES

Stuttgart, Germany, 10. December 2021. RIB Software SE, the world's leading provider of iTWO 6D BIM ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) technology for the construction industry, today announced the conclusion of a next Phase-II-contract with DEGES Deutsche Einheit Fernstraßenplanungs- und -bau GmbH.

DEGES Deutsche Einheit Fernstraßenplanungs- und -bau GmbH has been commissioned since 1991 as the project management company of several federal states and the federal government with the realization of significant transport infrastructure projects and is responsible for the expansion and new construction of almost 3,000 kilometers of federal trunk roads with a contract volume of around 41.5 billion euros. On behalf of the federal government and 12 federal states, the approximately 500 employees are responsible for all planning, technical, legal and commercial issues relating to the expansion and new construction of federal trunk roads, bridges and tunnels.

Andreas Irngartinger, Head of Digital Planning and Construction at DEGES: "The more intensive cooperation with RIB is a consistent step in our digitization strategy: With the new software, we are even better able to connect our BIM models with the planning and construction processes. Model-based cost calculation, digital model-based invoice workflows and model-based service recording are just a few key points in this context. Especially the possibilities of iTWO 4.0 will help us in the future to connect our construction sites with mobile devices, to create dashboards and to integrate external partners into the processes of DEGES."

Erik von Stebut, Managing Director of RIB in Germany: "Germany is connected by over 830,000 kilometers of road, 38,600 kilometers of rail and 7,400 kilometers of waterway. 607 commercial ports and 539 airports also provide connections to the rest of the world. Innovation, further development and especially the adaptation to the increasing digitization in the construction industry are indispensable to ensure that German infrastructure can also meet the demands of the future in the best possible way. We are therefore very proud that our long-standing customer DEGES has decided to push ahead this digitization with us. The project management company has intensified its previous cooperation with RIB and will now use the iTWO platform as a central system for the

management of all construction and engineering contracts. In addition to the fact that another infrastructure company has already decided to use the iTWO solution, DEGES was also convinced by our BIM 5 D functionality and RIB's consistent digitization strategy".
