Who we are
The company has consolidated on the market in recent years, evolving and consolidating in the Industrial sector, Oil & Gas, Mining, Energy and Architectonic Sectors.
IDEA Ingeniería was formed in 2008, specialising in the deployment of BIM technology in industrial projects. It was formed by a group of professionals in which people cooperated with each other, united by their work, seeking professional and human development as well as the best Customer service. The perfection and quality of its services has allowed it to collaborate on a wide range of international projects with leading companies in the sector.
IDEA is endowed with vast experience in the industrial projects it has carried out over five continents and since its outset it has put itself forward as a multidisciplinary company that works with state-of-the-art design, analysis and simulation tools, offering its customers advantages afforded by the visualization of models before their manufacture.
At present it has consolidated as one of the national references in the INTEGRATION OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES in which INNOVATION and DEVELOPMENT have been the mainstays on which its growth has been based and which has served as a competitive edge over others.
In 2012 the need arose to innovate, providing an added value which will allow us to keep being competitive on the market. The synergy between the various disciplines such as detail engineering, architecture and the technological development department, led Idea to merge these three concepts through innovation, creating Visuartech, an Augmented Reality App which, as of today’s date, is one of the most innovative technologies in the new industrial revolution (Industry 4.0).
The company has consolidated on the market in recent years, evolving and consolidating in the Industrial sector, Oil & Gas, Mining, Energy and Architectonic Sectors.
This growth has allowed it to expand the services it offers, adding to Industrial Project Engineering (BIM), Recruitment and Outsourcing, Turnkey projects (EPC) and Digital Transformation 4.0. With the latter, in addition to being Augmented and Virtual Realty developers, we are implementers in our projects of point cloud, the use of drones in the Industrial sector and additive printing.
The setting apart of our services and the adaptation to the various places in the world allows us to sell 75% of the billing of final customers’ works beyond the Spanish border.

Where we work
Mission, vision and values
IDEA came about with the intention of covering a market requirement: evolution and adaptation to the speed of construction.
Mission
At the forefront of Industry 4.0
IDEA came about with the intention of covering a market requirement: evolution and adaptation to the speed of construction. The engineering department had to optimise the design time, maintaining the degree of precision and quality.
With this in mind, we offer the implementation of BIM technology, from the design stage to the management of plant maintenance, going through the manufacturing and construction stages. We have managed to put engineering within everyone’s grasp, optimising timeframes and reducing errors, turning into reality that which was beyond our imagination.
We have managed to achieve all this thanks to the achievement of design and virtual scale models, faithfully recreating reality using virtual reality to get around errors at the construction stage and thanks to augmented reality we have been able to superimpose our designs onto reality.
Planning, monitoring and control have become our modus operandi as that which is not planned is not measured, that which is not measured is not monitored and that which is not monitored is not managed.
We implement innovation in the engineering of industrial, energy, oil&gas, mining and architectonic projects at which our services are aimed.
Vision
The engineering of the future in the present
We are working and committed to taking a step forward in terms of our scope capacity and ability to intervene in projects since the origin (EPC Projects) without the need to have the aid or collaboration of any external company, achieving absolute project autonomy.
We have endeavoured to expand the field of action of IDEA, progressively getting into
petrochemical projects, as well as promoting the latest generation architectonic design at the service of engineering. We have sought to get the most out of the latest technologies on the market with a view to standing out on the market and meeting the needs of our customers.
In this new version of the company, we have used the following mainstays as our basis:
- Strengthening in BIM
- INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION 4.0 thanks to AR/VR
- Recruitment & Outsourcing Professionalisation
- Design of 3D unions.
- Internet Of Things (IoT)
- Hyperconnectivity
- To implement 24/7 access in engineering
- Use of drones in the construction industry
- 3D Printing
- Arduino robotics
