Where does our name come from?

We will be the most complete, efficient and secure supply ecosystem for construction in the digital world. Bildia is a transposition of the English verb BUILD into a community; a country of building in the digital world. We started in Spain, but we have an international focus. That is why our simple and direct name, with 6 letters and ending in "A", conveys the idea of service for all, efficiency, change, optimism and of course construction. Besides, we know that it can be pronounced anywhere.

Where does our logo come from?

Our logo is the fruit of our collaboration with the designer Rafa Celda. We have transformed the "B" in the Alphabet 1919™ by architect Theo Van Doesburg into our hallmark. By being enclosed in a square and using right angles, precise lines and simple geometry, it conveys the efficiency, strength and confidence we offer.

Its simplicity means you can interpret it in your own way, as flexible and easy to use as our software. Our "B" can also be an overlay of modules, a building, a floor plan, a bar chart, or a symbol of collaboration between companies.

Values and ideals

At Bildia we understand work as a way to improve society. There is only one life, so every minute of our work is gold, and we want to dedicate it to that which is important, such as the transformation of a sector as strategic as construction. These are some of the core values that guide us as a team, in making key decisions, in our relationship with clients and in our pursuit of innovation:

  • Innovation
    We are critical but positive and optimistic about our surroundings. We want our work to generate rapid, comprehensive and relevant changes for society. To achieve this, we always balance imagination with utility, technical feasibility and economic sustainability.
  • Excellence
    For us it is the commitment and the spirit of always trying to go one step beyond what is expected. In programming our software, in designing a simple implementation process, in mapping out our vision of digitalization for construction, our priorities for a positive impact, and in many other ways.
  • Client service
    Bildia was born to solve our clients problems in the supply chain. That is our priority and your satisfaction is our first indicator of success. For this, we create software that is intuitive, flexible and easy to implement, and we support you at all times.
  • Sustainability and Impact
    We use digitalization to multiply efficiency and enable a much deeper understanding of our industry's activities. Traceability of materials and emissions is one of many dreams we are gradually reaching as we build our digital ecosystem.
  • Transparency and professionalism
    Our operations, products and relationships foster a professional environment of the highest standard, demonstrating that with good communication and transparency within the competitive environment, everyone wins: people, companies and construction, globally.
