What is GAEB?

GAEB stands for Gemeinsamer Ausschuss Elektronik im Bauwesen (Joint Committee for Electronics in Construction) and refers to a DIN-standardized electronic file format for the construction industry. It standardizes and speeds up the processes of tendering, awarding, and billing (AVA) and enables the structured transfer of bills of quantities, quote, and billing data between all parties involved. GAEB files are primarily used in four areas: requests for quotes, quote submission, order placement, and the exchange of quotes between companies.
