Capa and Nohara Group Unveil Dedicated Site for BIMobject®

Capa Corporation, headquartered in Chiyoda, Tokyo, has announced the launch of a dedicated site for BIMobject®, the innovative BIM object platform, slated for April 2025. This site will allow users to experience the functionalities of BIMobject and easily download family data and other design resources. This initiative is part of a collaboration between Capa and BIMobject Japan, aimed at accelerating the BIM implementation for manufacturers and increasing the circulation of manufacturer objects in the construction industry.

What is BIMobject?

BIMobject® is a powerful platform that aggregates digital data for construction materials and equipment from manufacturers worldwide. This platform benefits designers who can download essential digital data for free, thus streamlining their design processes. The collaboration began earnestly in March 2025, focused on promoting the use of BIM technology across the construction sector.

Aiming for Efficiency and Precision

The utilization of Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology is gaining considerable traction in Japan’s construction sector. Capa, with over 42 years of experience in software development, particularly specializes in customizing CAD, BIM, and CIM software, proposed utilizing BIM families for internal databases. This approach allows designers to effectively manage essential project data and improves design accuracy.

On the other hand, BIMobject Japan operates the BIMobject platform domestically, facilitating access to crucial digital data for architects and designers. By combining Capa’s expertise with the strengths of BIMobject Japan, both companies strive to enhance BIM capabilities for Japanese manufacturers, accelerating the adoption of BIM in the industry and positively impacting productivity.

Synergistic Partnership

Capa's collaboration with Nohara Group is not just about enhancing the platform but also about effectively supporting manufacturers in:

• - Assisting in the implementation of BIM
• - Developing BIM utilization guidelines
• - Standardizing BIM data and optimizing platform capabilities
• - Streamlining data management and distribution

This partnership aims to generate a significant impact on the overall digital transformation (DX) of the construction sector in Japan, enabling manufacturers to overcome challenges through efficient BIM data circulation and usage.

Moreover, an overarching vision drives this collaboration: to assist Japanese manufacturers in penetrating international markets and making their products widely recognized globally.

Nohara Group and BIMobject Japan

Founded on December 27, 2017, through a joint venture between the Nohara Group and BIMobject AB, BIMobject Japan focuses on providing BIM services in Japan. Hosting the world’s largest platform for construction-related digital content, it aids manufacturers in presenting their products globally while giving designers a free repository of manufacturer-approved object data. With high-functionality data management capabilities, the platform facilitates a comprehensive solution for design professionals by allowing seamless management of various datasets.

The mission driving Nohara Group emphasizes creativity and innovation. They are recognized as leaders in transforming the construction industry, addressing environmental challenges, and pioneering productivity enhancements. Nohara is committed to a vision for a sustainable future while reducing waste and CO2 emissions in the construction sector.

Conclusion

Capa and Nohara Group’s collaboration to launch the BIMobject® dedicated site represents a pivotal step toward greater integration of BIM practices in Japan's construction industry. This initiative reflects a larger trend towards digital transformation and sustainable growth, fostering an environment where designers and manufacturers can work more efficiently and synergistically.
