This site is written and maintained by project professionals - for project professionals. Open access to vital background information is imperative to sustain the highest degree of professionalism. A professional manager cannot make sound and reliable decisions on the basis of blurred and incomplete information. This is why all the algorithms making up the total information base in CERA Databank have been fully and openly displayed. When we decided to go for maximum openness we did expect some degree of copying to occur, but not to the degree we now see. Consequently the site is running at a loss and cannot accept any new users under the same commercial conditions as before. We regret very much this situation, but this was forced upon us.

However, we maintain the offer to install CERA Databank WWW on the customer’s own server. This means that the customer may edit and expand the database freely and at his own pace. The PC tool that we use to compute the algorithms/formulas in CERA Databank – CERA Formula Provider – may also be commercially available within a few months time. Please contact sales@cera.no for further information. 

The site will be closed for new users for an estimated time of two months. However, potential users who which to install the site on their own server will be prioritised. Please contact sales@cera.no for further information.  

The board of CERA Databank decided to admit the public free access to the databank index and calculation modules. However, only the full paying users will receive full access to the databank formulas. The non-paying users will therefore not be granted access to the most valuable information in the databank, but will hopefully be able to extract enough information to solve simple CAPEX problems. Our hope is that this gesture will boost the interest in CERA Databank and attract more paying users. It’s as simple as that! The free access period will initially last for a duration of 12 months.
