'''cadwork informatik CI AG''' is a multinational software company headquartered in [[Basel, Switzerland]]. It develops and markets software products primarily for the construction industry. These products include timber industry products in [[computer-aided design]] ([[computer-aided design|CAD]]) and [[computer-aided manufacturing]] ([[computer-aided manufacturing|CAM]]) as well as products in [[building information model]] (BIM) and [[virtual design and construction]] (VDC). These products are suitable for [[designer]]s, [[structural engineer]]s, [[construction engineering|construction engineers]], [[draftsman|civil engineering draftspeople]], building contractors, and in the case of BIMTeam VDC, the [[Construction worker|construction crews]].
cadwork integration of design, manufacturing, and construction has contributed to Europe's 25-year lead on North America in the timber construction industry.<ref>Joseph Gallivan "WHERE MASS TIMBER COMES TOGETHER," Pamplin Media Group, March 26, 2019. https://pamplinmedia.com/but/239-news/423542-328541-where-mass-timber-comes-together-pwoff</ref> cadwork was formed in 1988 at the [[École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne]] (EPFL) Department of Timber Construction as a continuation of research in software by the [[Swiss Center for Electronics and Microtechnology]] (CSEM), a watch industry research department.

== Recognition of industry practitioners ==
The ‘cadwork competition' provides recognition for aesthetically pleasing timber construction. There are various categories; in 2019, Laminated Timber Solutions received a public buildings award for their [[Molenbeek-Saint-Jean]] passive building constructed entirely of cross-laminated timber (CLT). This residential structure consists of 17 units (single- and dual-story apartments) with ancillary common parts.<ref>
