CHEK - Change toolkit for digital building permit

Inefficiencies in current processes of issuing building permits result in delays and miscalculations in planning, design and construction. While several Member States have moved towards digitalisation of building permit procedures, none have succeeded in full adoption at municipality level. The EU-funded CHEK project aims to remove barriers for municipalities through scalable solutions for regulations, open standards and interoperability. It will provide an innovative tool kit supporting the digitalisation of building permit issuing and automated compliance checks based on the integration of 3D city and building models. A major strength lies in CHEK’s multi-sectoral consortium, with several partners already members of the European Network for Digital Building Permits. The project follows the logic of OpenAPI, enabling replicability in any European country.
