What TARCON does
TARCON OÜ is an Estonian private limited company (registry code 16487228) headquartered in Tallinn that delivers Building Information Modeling (BIM) coordination, consulting, training, and software distribution to the construction and infrastructure sector. Its service portfolio spans BIM coordination for buildings and infrastructure (Rail Baltica ecoducts, the €59M National Library of Estonia renovation, the Patarei Sea Fortress reconstruction), hands-on BIM consulting, on-site BIM expert deployments, and structured training delivered both in-person and through a self-serve e-learning platform at pood.tarcon.ee. TARCON also acts as the official reseller in Estonia for four third-party BIM platforms — BIMcollab (ZOOM, Nexus, Twin), Simplebim (IFC data processing), VREX (VR collaboration), and Vektor.io (BIM/GIS/point cloud integration for infrastructure) — and holds an additional software stack acquired via an EU NextGenerationEU grant (VREX, Imerso, BEXEL Manager).
The company's underlying technology is workflow-level rather than proprietary: it federates models from multiple disciplines using BIMcollab ZOOM, processes IFC data via Simplebim, models in Autodesk Revit and Civil 3D, supports VR reviews via VREX, and compares 3D scans to models via Imerso, with BEXEL Manager serving as the construction management backbone. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales and referrals in Estonia with a regional push into Latvia and Lithuania, supplemented by content marketing (Estonian blog, YouTube, LinkedIn, Facebook) and the e-learning storefront. Customers are primarily Estonian and Baltic construction contractors, architectural and engineering design firms, infrastructure contractors, and government and owner entities (Merko Ehitus, YIT Eesti, Verston, Rail Baltic Estonia OÜ, Riigi Kinnisvara AS, among others).
TARCON makes money through three streams: (1) project-based BIM services (audits from €1,350, expert reviews from €1,500, mobile/VR setup from €350–€1,000, room drawings at €1,000 per project); (2) recurring software licensing as a reseller (e.g., Simplebim annual licenses at €1,250 single-user and €1,950 network); and (3) recurring and transactional training revenue (in-person classroom courses plus e-learning courses priced individually from €225 to €400). The firm is founder-led by Taavi Liiv, employs 1–10 people, and is funded primarily through operations plus a €17,032.92 EU NextGenerationEU grant.

TARCON competitors and assessment
Company assessmentRegional players
- Solita: Finnish digital transformation and data consultancy that delivers BIM-adjacent digital services to construction and infrastructure clients. Comparable to TARCON in serving Nordic/Baltic digital construction demand with combined services-and-technology delivery, though Solita operates at substantially larger scale across Finland rather than Estonia.
Direct peers
- Sitowise: Finnish engineering and digital consultancy with deep BIM and InfraBIM practices serving Nordic infrastructure and building projects. Comparable to TARCON because both combine BIM coordination services with proprietary digital tooling for construction and infrastructure clients, though Sitowise is materially larger and serves Finland rather than Estonia.
Broad incumbents
- Sweco: Pan-European engineering consultancy with Estonian operations (Sweco EST OÜ — already a TARCON partner). Comparable because it delivers BIM coordination, infrastructure design, and digital project services to the same Estonian construction and infrastructure clients that TARCON serves, but as part of a much broader 20,000+ person portfolio.
- WSP: Global professional services firm with engineering and BIM advisory across the Nordics and Baltics. Comparable because it competes for the same BIM coordination mandates on Estonian construction and infrastructure projects, but at much larger scale and with broader service line offerings.
- Ramboll: Nordic-headquartered engineering consultancy with significant Baltic presence and BIM/infrastructure services. Comparable to TARCON as a direct competitor for Estonian and Baltic infrastructure BIM contracts (Rail Baltica ecosystem, buildings, transport), with substantially deeper bench and global delivery capacity.
Others
- Simplebim: Finnish IFC data processing software company; TARCON has been its official Estonian reseller since 2009. Comparable as a peer in the building-information-modelling tooling ecosystem, but as a software vendor that TARCON distributes rather than competes with.
- BIMcollab: Netherlands-based BIM coordination software vendor whose Estonian channel is TARCON itself. Comparable as a peer in the BIM coordination ecosystem with overlapping customers, though as a software vendor rather than services peer, and a partner rather than direct competitor.
- Vektor.io: Finnish cloud platform combining BIM, GIS, drone surveys, and point clouds for infrastructure projects — distributed in Estonia by TARCON itself. Comparable as an infrastructure-BIM technology counterpart in the same Finnish-Estonian corridor, but as a software vendor rather than services peer.
Emerging players
- Dalux: Danish BIM and facility management software company that TARCON already configures for Estonian clients (Dalux FM at Radisson Riga). Comparable as a smaller, focused BIM/FM software player with overlapping customer base, though Dalux is a product company while TARCON is services-led.
- Solibri: Finnish BIM model checking and quality assurance software company serving Nordic and international construction clients. Comparable as a focused BIM quality/categorisation technology vendor addressing the same construction digitalization buyers TARCON serves.
