Core Concept Technology and Azusawa General Research Institute Launch Collaboration on Sales of BIM Platform 'AIR-Plate' for Architecture and Facility Management

Core Concept Technology Inc. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Takeshi Kaneko; hereinafter 'CCT'), a company specializing in DX support for manufacturing and construction industries, and Azusawa General Research Institute Inc. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Kyohei Hakaeda; hereinafter 'AIR'), a think tank advancing construction DX through research and consulting in architecture, urban development, and environmental fields, announce the launch of a collaborative initiative for the sales of 'AIR-Plate,' a BIM platform designed for architecture and facility management (FM). Both companies aim to achieve full-scale operations within this year and accelerate the adoption of construction DX.

BIM (Building Information Modeling) is a methodology that integrates design, construction, and maintenance information into a 3D building model for use throughout the building's lifecycle.

■ Background of the Collaboration

While the construction industry increasingly demands BIM utilization across the entire lifecycle—from design and construction to maintenance—challenges remain in IT implementation support and operational stabilization at construction sites. In particular, facility management and FM sectors often rely on Excel or paper-based systems for facility data management, making the establishment of a digital foundation for construction DX an urgent priority. 'AIR-Plate,' developed and provided by AIR, is a platform specialized for architecture and FM that enables integration of Notion, BIM, and 3D scanning.

■ What is AIR-Plate?

'AIR-Plate' is a maintenance-focused BIM platform tailored for architecture and FM. By integrating Notion, BIM, and 3D scanning, it enables centralized management of design data throughout a building’s lifecycle and enhances facility operations. It has been adopted by municipalities and major developers, supporting the advancement of architectural DX and maintenance DX.
