GPC, ETIM and DICO are data standards used in the construction sector.
- ETIM (ElectroTechnical Information Model) is a European standard for classifying the technical features of products, widely used in construction and installation sectors.
- GPC (Global Product Classification) is an international system for product categorization, widely used in DIY and retail.
- DICO (formerly SALES) is the Dutch standard for electronic data exchange in construction—for example, for sending offers, orders, and product specs.
Using these standards helps manufacturers present their data consistently, connect with platforms like 2BA or STABU, and integrate smoothly with BIM and ERP environments. Utopis supports all of these standards.
