ALLPLAN eBook helps AEC Professionals to Reduce Carbon and Enhance Sustainability with BIM

New resource shows how digital workflows support sustainability goals across the building lifecycle

Munich – With buildings and construction responsible for 34% of global carbon emissions and half of all material extraction, the AEC industry faces growing pressure to act. To support this transition, ALLPLAN – a global leader in AEC software and part of the Nemetschek Group – has published a new eBook: “The Ultimate Sustainability Checklist for BIM Projects”.

“Sustainability starts long before construction begins,” says Eduardo Lazzarotto, Chief Product and Strategy Officer at ALLPLAN. “With this eBook, we’re equipping professionals with a practical framework to optimize their digital workflows – unlocking both environmental and economic value.”

ALLPLAN’s new eBook empowers project teams to meet this challenge through actionable guidance and proven digital workflows.

Practical Guidance Across the Project Lifecycle

This eBook provides actionable checklists for each phase of the building lifecycle, showing how the right BIM tools can help optimize design decisions, streamline workflows, and minimize embodied carbon. Readers will discover how to leverage digital construction for smarter material selection, more efficient layouts, and better long-term building performance.

What’s Inside the eBook

  • Lifecycle-based sustainability strategies for new builds and renovations
  • How to leverage BIM for smarter material choices
  • Real-world case studies and tested workflows
  • Digital tools for efficient operation, renovation, and reuse
