Five CAD Conversion Services Architectural Firms Should Implement

A disjointed and ineffective computer-aided design (CAD) system begins with the existence of multiple file platforms for engineering drawings (both hand-drawn and CAD), technical images, specifications and data sheets, shop drawings and administrative documentation.

The solution – implement a comprehensive CAD Conversion Services program with the prospect of reducing the number of incompatible CAD system files; files that are archived due to old/unsupported software release, vendor/shop drawings on various platforms and eliminating vellum drawings by conversion to CAD.

Autocad certainly provides an appropriate ‘save as’ option to accomplish this request.

Improperly imported CAD files between different platforms can lose their line and level attributes – the very basic structures that enable CAD as a drafting production tool.

To use your in-house design staff for this time-consuming and labor-intensive work would take away from present projects and the expense is more cost-effective when outsourced.
