What we do

Our Services

We model the existing site and the proposed design in OpenBuildings Designer, produce the drawing sets in MicroStation, and keep the same model going through construction to the as-built record. Every file is set up to your client’s standards and works inside your ProjectWise.

  • 12+ years in Bentley software. Led by an industry expert who works in OpenBuildings Designer, MicroStation and ProjectWise on live projects every day.
  • Rail and transit projects. Stations modeled from laser scans and record drawings, structural models for station upgrades, bridges, viaducts and tunnels, and drawing packages to rail authority CAD standards.
  • Files your team can keep working in. Built with the tools that keep files light and set up to your standards, so your own modelers and CAD team can edit them and keep issuing drawings.

What bad habits are actually costing you

How much bad BIM practices are costing your project

Every hour your team spends fighting a laggy file, or redoing a drawing that should've been right the first time, is an hour that isn't going toward the project. Estimate what that's actually costing you:

This is simple math, not a formal audit — but most teams are surprised how fast it adds up. Annual figure assumes ~52 working weeks.

Case Studies: OpenBuildings & MicroStation problems we've solved.

MODEL PRINTED SHEET

MicroStation · Display rules

Why our MicroStation drawings stopped printing correctly

A team couldn’t get a set of drawings to print correctly because of the display rules. We found the cause and fixed it in about 90 minutes.

How one ProjectWise grid change cost a team days of work

One untrained team lead with admin access changed a single grid value. It moved the grid for the entire project.
