About us

Are you passionate about data revolution and digitalization? You have now the opportunity to get involved in the construction industry, one of the less digitalized industries, with lots of potential for improving and make an impact.

We are a cost engineering firm specialized in Construction projects, trying to make an impact in the industry by digitalizing all cost aspects of construction projects (5D - BIM).

To do so, we have focused our efforts on standardizing and data collection as a first stage, and data management and automating processes to come.

Following many years working as cost professionals in the construction industry we have a keen focus on what the client needs when it comes to cost and cost reporting. Our standardised approach allows us to see construction projects in a certain methodical way. This, along with the evolution in digitisation, has brought us to the conclusion that we need a more automated and digitised approach to how we report construction costs to our clients and how we collect cost information/data. From these needs and experiences the idea for “THE FIFTH DIMENSION” was born.

The5d is a brand-new software company with the backing of an established company in the construction industry.
