What we do

ISTRAM: AEC- GIS – 3D

The area in which we include our applications is now called AEC (Architecture, Engineering & Construction); and we have inserted two more acronyms SIG / 3D, to cover the other aspects that may be part of any project. From here we recommend you visit our “Istram” and “Customer” sections and download all the information we provide.

Success guarantee

The activity of engineers and surveyors has always demanded a tool to design and control the construction of civil engineering projects. We have relied on them to offer a software that is probably the most intuitive, versatile and powerful worldwide, the satisfaction of our customers is our best guarantee.

If you are about to purchase one of our applications is probably because someone has spoken very well of our products.

From this initial idea, ISTRAM ® has been growing to cover the widest range of features, according to the needs of the market, the introduction of quality systems and the increasing demand of management tools for any type of activity in engineering studies and construction companies.

Our objectives

Buhodra Ingeniería, S.A. has been carrying out several years of expansion and growth, doubling its staff and establishing sales offices in Spain and abroad. In these years the functionalities of our applications have greatly improved, reaching levels of productivity highly appreciated by our customers.
