Revolutionize Business Processes with Nine SaaS Clusters

By combining BIM and automation technologies, we achieve overwhelming improvements in productivity.

The Culmination of a Century of Knowledge at Takasago Thermal Engineering

PLANETS is not just about digitizing building data, storing, and centrally managing it through BIM; it goes beyond the digitization of business processes using these data. The nine SaaS solutions are a systematization of the deep industry knowledge that Takasago Thermal Engineering has accumulated over many years.

Automated Input and Output of BIM Data

PLANETS is powered by Arent’s advanced automation technology. By automating the labor-intensive input processes (such as modeling) and automatically extracting and utilizing the attribute information from generated BIM models in subsequent design and construction phases, it significantly accelerates the digital transformation (DX) of the entire construction workflow. In the future, leveraging AI with the ‘accumulated knowledge (data)’ will enable further advancements in DX.
