Software for Architecture, Engineering and Construction
What is CYPE?
CYPE is a firm that develops and distributes technical software for Architecture, Engineering and Construction professionals.
CYPE’s journey began in 1983 with an intense activity in the field of engineering and structural analysis, which motivated the computer development of applications to cover its own needs and those of its clients. The success of these programs led the company to concentrate its activity in the development, commercialisation and distribution of technical software; which has been supervised and directed from the very beginning by Vicente Castell Herrera.
As a result of this work, CYPE occupies a leading position within the sector, offering a variety of programs that stand out due to the wide range of casuistry that is dealt with, the reliability of the results and the ease with which they can be managed, with over 120.000 users spread across Europe, America, Africa, Oceania and Asia. Amongst our clients are town councils and ministries, as well as technical control organisations, universities and professional offices.
