Extract text from Project documents (BOP)
To convert BOP Projects to another format, you need Gefasoft Build-Up or other Data software.
To convert other file formats to the "Construction Project File" file type, you need software like Gefasoft Build-Up or a similar tool.
The .BOP file is a specialized construction project data file created by Gefasoft Build-Up software. Under the hood, this format uses standard ZIP compression to bundle project parameters, material lists, and architectural configurations into a single container.
Users typically receive these files from contractors or architects using the Build-Up ecosystem. The major disadvantage of the .BOP format is its proprietary nature. It requires an expensive, niche software license to open and read natively. It is not supported by standard document viewers or web browsers, making cross-team collaboration difficult if the recipient does not own the specific software.
Because the file is essentially a compressed archive, the most practical solution is to extract the data. Converting the internal assets to universal formats like CSV, XML, or PDF is highly recommended for long-term storage and accessibility. Be aware that while extraction is easy, the internal data schemas may still require interpretation.
Standard online converters fail to process this format because they only read the extension. Drag and drop your file to see what it is and convert it if supported. convert.guru can identify the underlying structure, extract the embedded files, and help you view or convert the hidden contents without needing the original software.
Convert.Guru analyzes your BOP file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.
Users also converted BUP, BITMAP, BLANK and DEAD files.

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our BOP converter.
