Bricsnet chief executive officer Erik de Keyser has announced that the company has signed a letter of intent to acquire VISCOMM, a leading provider of real estate property and facility management software and services. By integrating facilities management into the Bricsnet.com environment, Bricsnet will extend its online products and services—which currently span design, construction, product specifying, and bidding and procurement—to the operation of completed buildings. The agreement provides Bricsnet with a vastly expanded market opportunity because 85% of total building costs are typically incurred after a building has been completed.
