SITEOPS® ONLINE TOOLS 3.0 ADDS POWERFUL WEB COLLABORATION FEATURES
CHARLOTTE, NC – April 9, 2008 – Today BLUERIDGE Analytics, Inc. announced the release of SITEOPS® Online Tools 3.0. SITEOPS is the industry’s most advanced web-based CAD land development software. Via Software as a Service, SITEOPS provides a collaboration hub where land owners, civil engineers, and contractors can share ideas, designs, and information.
As a truly web-based CAD toolset with robust error-checking and rapid prototyping capabilities, SITEOPS is the obvious choice for online site management. The 3.0 release adds powerful new collaboration tools, enabling customers to seamlessly integrate revolutionary SITEOPS optimization technology into their existing site design processes.
A recent National Institute of Standards and Technology study found that the construction and land development industry wastes at least $15.8 billion each year due to inefficient communications systems. Today land developers, architects, and engineers must contend with:
- Costly first-day mistakes due to communication errors
- Inability of all stakeholders to view and discuss the same project data
- Lack of standardized design formats
SITEOPS Online Tools 3.0 helps meet this industry-wide need by integrating the next wave of collaboration tools into the design toolset.
New features include:
- Threaded discussions in project forums
- Ability to version designs
- Ability to share and store project documents
- Support for LandXML
- Improved user interface for BaseMap tab
“Lack of information sharing is one of the biggest sources of waste in the land development industry,” says Heather Palmer-Palavido, VP of Product Development. “Our clients tell us ours is the first tool to integrate design, communication, and management with such a holistic approach.”
