NEVARIS Build

Subscription Administer Construction

Construction management and estimating software for DACH contractors, combining tendering, costing, scheduling, controlling, openBIM IFC workflows, and a documented REST client API.

Made by NEVARIS, subsidiary; owned by Nemetschek Group (NEM, $7.4B)

3.4 /5 composite score

Solid -- NEVARIS Build covers tendering through controlling in one contractor stack, ships a typed HTTP client for its API, and is still actively releasing 2026 patches, but the DACH-focused enterprise setup and mixed pricing signals keep it from being an easy default outside that market.
