Reflecting on 2025: New Solutions and Shared Progress<\/h1><\/h1><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>2025 has been a year of steady progress for Cobuilder, marked by new digital solutions, strengthened partnerships and continued focus on supporting the construction industry with structured, reliable data. At Cobuilder, we remain committed to giving everyone in the construction process the tools and insights they need to work smarter and more efficiently, whether they are contractors, subcontractors, manufacturers or wholesalers. This shared progress has also been supported by important organisational developments, including the appointment of Gustav Line as CEO and strong backing from Corten Capital II, following their majority investment in the previous year.<\/p>\n
Below is a glimpse of some of the highlights from 2025, along with many behind-the-scenes improvements and system enhancements aimed at making daily work easier and more effective for our customers.<\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/a><\/span><\/div><\/div>A Smoother FDV Handover with the New FM Module<\/h3><\/h3><\/div>Many manufacturers know their products are being used in the market but lack insight into where and how often. They often struggle to understand contractor behaviour, regional differences, project level trends and the real impact their products have on construction workflows. Without this visibility it becomes difficult to forecast demand, prioritise sales efforts or identify new opportunities for growth in the next years.<\/p>\n
Even though construction projects move toward digital collaboration platforms the manufacturers behind the products have not always had access to the data that shows how their products perform in practice.<\/p>\n<\/div>

For the first time, it becomes possible to see product usage across projects, identify patterns and understand reach and engagement in a clear, data-driven way. These insights have traditionally been very difficult to access, and we are excited to make this level of visibility possible for our manufacturers.<\/p>\n
With a clearer view of real project activity, manufacturers can better understand engagement patterns, support their contractor partners more effectively and make decisions based on data rather than assumptions.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Sustainability reporting depends on access to reliable, structured data, yet environmental documentation is often collected across many actors and formats, making reporting manual and inconsistent. The Sustainability module in Cobuilder Collaborate supports customers in collecting and managing sustainability-related information in a more structured and efficient way, helping simplify reporting.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Manufacturers can now present their products with clear, structured information, increasing visibility and improving the chances of being selected in real projects. At the same time, contractors and subcontractors gain easier access to accurate, comparable product details, supported by improved search and filtering that makes product discovery and comparison easier.<\/p>\n<\/div>

Cobuilder contributed the study with its long \u2013 standing experience in structuring product data and data standardization activities, alongside with the practical software development experience. This combination was particularly important in assessing the feasibility of the options ensuring that the recommendations were based on both regulatory and standardization requirements, and practical implementation aspects.<\/p>\n<\/div>
