What is MicroStation?
MicroStation is a high-performance CAD solution designed to boost organizational productivity and reduce infrastructure project risk. Engineering firms using MicroStation have reported a 30% reduction in Quality Assurance / Quality Control time thanks to its superior standards adherence and integrated collaboration tools. MicroStation accelerates project delivery by automating tasks in the creation of drawings, models, and visualizations directly from BIM data. Its seamless 2D/3D connection ensures that changes to a model are automatically reflected across all associated documentation, minimizing rework and human error. By supporting natively used formats like DWG without conversion, MicroStation eliminates the time-wasting manual re-entry of data. It is the strategic choice for organizations looking to transition from simple drafting to more efficient, data-driven workflows while maintaining a competitive edge in the infrastructure market.
What is Dv TDM?
Total Document Management (Dv TDM) is a robust, globally recognized platform that adeptly handles a wide array of documents, ranging from standard business files to complex technical documents and drawings, overseeing them through every stage of their lifecycle. This solution supports various Microsoft Office formats, including Word, Excel, and Outlook, in addition to engineering documents and designs such as AutoCAD, Microstation, PDF, among others. Users benefit from the ability to share documents and drawings online, manage different versions, and annotate files without requiring access to the original software, among other features. Designed with a rich set of customizable options, Dv TDM addresses a wide spectrum of lifecycle business processes for nearly all electronic file types. It is particularly noteworthy that Dv TDM allows for the viewing of over 200 widely used file formats without the need for the native application to be installed on the user's device. Additionally, it includes a variety of modules, such as Workflow, Knowledge Group, and Transmittals, which greatly enhance the ease of managing documents and drawings.
