Civil engineering and construction firms can realize their ideas for developing new business and better serving customers using integrated Autodesk engineering and construction solutions to create, manage, and share spatial information across the extended organization.

Our clients report the following challenges:
  •  Shrinking budgets, increasingly complex requests, and large quantities of new data have made work process efficiency and spatial information management key differentiators for private civil engineering and construction firms to remain competitive.
  •  Developing better and faster ways to communicate and share data with customers improves satisfaction and leads to better relationships and retention.
  •  Firms need to cultivate new sources of revenue by offering value-added services; services that depend on managing spatial data with greater agility to meet rapidly changing customer needs.

Customer Business Issues and Customer Benefits:
  •  Business Issue 1: Shrinking operating margins.
  •  Benefit 1: Open, integrated architecture lets engineering and construction firms extract the most value from data assets with fewer operational penalties.

  •  Business Issue 2: The need to expand services offerings.
  •  Benefit 2: A complete platform and industry-standard environment makes it faster and easier to develop new value-added services.

  •  Business Issue 3: The need to work more quickly and improve quality.
  •  Benefit 3: Design data creation features and automation boosts productivity and accelerates design times.

Carolina CAD Solutions is the only Autodesk regional partner focused exclusively on government and private infrastructure solutions.



Civil 3D 2007

Autodesk® Civil 3D® 2007 software is a powerful, mature, civil engineering application designed to significantly increase productivity, save time, and decrease costs. It uses an industry-proven dynamic engineering model that maintains intelligent object relationships. A change made in one place instantly updates your entire project, helping you complete transportation, site, sewer, storm drain, and subdivision projects faster and more accurately. All team members work from the same consistent, up-to-date model, so they stay synchronized throughout all project phases, including survey, design, drafting, reporting, analysis, and visualization. Enhanced consulting, training, third-party developer products, and application development tools form a powerful enterprise civil engineering solution.

With Civil 3D software, your organization can standardize on one powerful product for all of its civil engineering design, drafting, and GIS needs. Reduce training and support costs, simplify licensing and subscription renewals, minimize data translation requirements, and substantially improve the quality of your deliverables with one powerful solution.

AutoCAD 2007

Realize your ideas with efficiency and clarity, from conceptual design through drafting and detailing. Whether you're creating solids and surfaces, studying the effects of lighting on your design, exploring design alternatives with walk-through animations, or producing an entire sheet set, AutoCAD® 2007 software has the tools to make it happen quickly and accurately.

AutoCAD 2007 focuses on improving designers' ability to create, navigate, and edit a conceptual design, clearly present the design to a nontechnical audience, and then easily document the design using all the powerful AutoCAD drafting tools. AutoCAD 2007 provides a huge productivity boost to users who currently do conceptual design in AutoCAD and to users who would like to do so. The common set of underlying technology "engines" and enhanced interface tools mean interoperability and cross-training between AutoCAD and Autodesk® products such as Autodesk® Revit® Building and Autodesk Inventor® software applications has never been better.
