The “Bauen und Wohnen” module of the Sinfos master data pool, specifically for the building and home improvement sector, is also going to be used in Austria. Baumax will be the first Austrian DIY retailer to participate in this system for the standardized exchange of data between industry and commerce. The company behind Sinfos is a subsidiary of the German CCG (Centrale für Coorganisation), which is developing the Bauen und Wohnen module for DIY retailers and builders’ merchants in collaboration with Heinze, a Bertelsmann subsidiary.
