Who uses Archetris Schema

Schema is built for architects, by architects to support informed decision making early in the design process. Architecture firms are using Schema on healthcare, workplace, education and science & technology projects. Construction and construction management companies are using Schema for preliminary cost estimation. Commercial and corporate real estate professionals are evaluating Schema for use on relocation & restack projects.

If you’re designing or planning projects with complex programs, Schema might be a good fit.

and what they’re saying about it

Schema was easy to learn and immediately provided value to our team and our client’s understanding of important information.
Array has been searching for this tool for a long time.  We had undergone years of research and testing as we tried to connect our clients with critical program information, but found every other platform we tried to be either too complex or without lasting project value.  With Schema, our clients enjoy being able to see the impact of change to a program in real-time and our projects benefit from rapid, informed decisions.
