In the absence of a uniform coding system, most of the architectural and engineering firms are not able to prepare a master database which can be used for the preparation of their construction project documents which results in problems like updating of the costs in the different project files becomes extremely difficult, It is difficult to link the items of work with the specifications in the project files, There is no effective control on the development of the specifications in the different project files etc. Thus to overcome these drawbacks 13-Digit Coding System is used in BuildSystem.
BuildSystem is visioned to have One web-based cost database for materials, equipments, labour, items of work and specifications ; One web-based ERP system with the cost database ; For construction and maintenance of projects ; For India and rest of the World ; For the betterment of mankind by 2020
