The major challenge for construction stakeholders is to obtain relevant environmental data that allows for the most accurate calculation of the building's carbon footprint.
One of the trends we observe is the availability of tailored configurators for industrialists, offering multiple product configurations.
EVEA has been part of this trend for 10 years, offering software tools aimed at enabling industrialists to gain autonomy in terms of FDES. For example, the 5th version of our Ev-DEC configurator is currently used to create these "tailor-made" FDES. ■
