The story of is one of rapid digital transformation in the construction industry. Released by the Spanish technology company

The year 2020 will forever be remembered as a turning point for global industries, driven by the sudden shift toward remote work, digital collaboration, and supply chain resilience. For the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) sector—a field traditionally reliant on on-site presence and face-to-face coordination—the challenges were particularly acute. Amid this disruption, specialized software tools became lifelines. One such tool, the suite (CYPE Ingenieros, S.A.), proved indispensable. In 2020, CYPE did not merely function as a set of structural or MEP design programs; it evolved into a critical platform enabling continuity, compliance with new health standards, and the acceleration of Building Information Modeling (BIM) adoption.

The single most important feature of was the native integration of BIMserver.center , CYPE's own collaborative platform. In previous versions, using the BIMserver required separate plugins and manual uploads. In version 2020, the server became the "brain" of the operation.

While newer versions have since been released, CYPE 2020 remains a benchmark for firms that established their BIM workflows during this period. Its ability to handle calculations and Passive House criteria makes it a robust choice for sustainable design. ScienceDirect.com
