# Catenda

Catenda is a Norwegian startup company that started as a spin-off from SINTEF Building and Infrastructure, looking at why productivity in the construction industry had remained unchanged for so many decades.

We believe in making information more available through open standards, from inception, through planning, design and construction onto the maintenance of a building. We believe we can make the industry more data-driven, with less waste and greater transparency along the way. Thereby making the planet a better place as well.

We work distributed, synchronously, often sharing screens remotely to work collaboratively. Catenda has offices in Oslo and Bergen, but also have contributors remotely working on compatible timezones.

Our solution, Bimsync, is a cloud-based collaboration platform where construction information comes alive, through the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM). Many companies across the world are now using our product to build airports, hospitals, stadiums, homes and roads amongst many other things.

Our technology stack runs on Amazon with AWS, using the most appropriate technology for the problem at hand. Most of our stack runs in Java and Javascript (we also have some code in C++ and some experiments with RUST).

Our cloud services run on a variety of databases: MongoDB, PostgreSQL and MySQL.
