CDE (Common Data Environment)

A Common Data Environment (CDE) is a centralized digital space where project teams can store, manage, and share information related to a project, typically in construction or infrastructure development. It ensures that everyone involved—like architects, engineers, and contractors—has access to the same up-to-date data, reducing errors and improving collaboration. The CDE organizes documents, models, and other project resources, helping teams to work more efficiently and effectively while maintaining consistency across all aspects of the project. This ultimately leads to better decision-making and successful project outcomes.
