Construction & BIM software in Chad
SangoImmo works in Chad — in N'Djaména, Moundou, Sarh, Abéché and on any site in between: design a house in 2D/3D, get the quantities and cost, and produce a quote — priced in CFA franc (Central Africa), in the CFA franc zone (CEMAC). It is offline-first (built for patchy networks) and runs on web, Android and iOS. Open SangoImmo →

Building in Chad: what changes, what doesn't
| Currency quoted | CFA franc (Central Africa) |
| Monetary zone | CFA franc zone (CEMAC) |
| Main building markets | N'Djaména, Moundou, Sarh and Abéché |
| Language of the paperwork | French and Arabic — the app runs in French and English |
| Client contact | WhatsApp quotes to +235 numbers |
| Client export pass | Free in Chad |
Most of what a builder does is the same everywhere: measure the walls, count the blocks, price the labour. What changes across a border is the currency the client reads, the language the quote is written in, and the standards the inspector cites. SangoImmo quotes in CFA franc (Central Africa), the same currency as 4 neighbouring markets in the CFA franc zone (CEMAC), writes in French or English, and works with no network — which matters more on a site outside N'Djaména than any feature list.
Prices and methodology in Chad
Chad is landlocked, and that is the single biggest reason a price list borrowed from a coastal neighbour will under-quote your job. Reinforcement steel, tiles, sanitaryware and often cement clinker reach N'Djaména through a neighbouring port and then several hundred kilometres of road. That haulage sits on top of the port price, it moves with fuel, and it lands unevenly on heavy items — so the gap against a coastal quote is widest on exactly the materials that dominate a structural budget.
SangoImmo prices in CFA franc (Central Africa) and adjusts for local conditions. Our published, measured cost index is Cameroon-first — we do not invent price tables for markets we have not measured, and that includes Chad. What you do instead is better anyway: enter the prices your own suppliers in N'Djaména quoted you this month, once, and every future estimate uses them. See how the numbers are built in the guides and in our methodology.

- Does it cover N'Djaména and the other cities?
- Yes — the app is not tied to a city list: it costs whatever you draw, wherever you build, from N'Djaména, Moundou, Sarh, Abéché to a site with no address yet.
