Bentley Utilities Designer

Bentley Utilities Designer is the full-function application for process optimization of design and management in network services.

On June 27, 2013 the company Bentley Systems, Inc announced the beginning of sales of the solution Bentley Utilities Designer.

Objectives

The new solution accelerates decision making process at a design stage within the concept of information modeling of buildings (BIM) and allows to create effective intellectual network objects, using information modeling. Besides, an opportunity to integrate design processes and managements in one application and one license promotes decrease in total cost of ownership, simplifying training of specialists and also deployment, service and solution integration in corporate workflows. These advantages guarantee significant increase in performance, in particular for the multi-profile network enterprises which are forced to apply several applications to design.

Advantages and benefits

The solution Bentley Utilities Designer gives to the network enterprises an opportunity to use advantages of information modeling and to accelerate return of investments, due to competitive advantage in the segment of the market. This effective application, it has functionality of MicroStation and Bentley Map, simplifies design process, both at reconstruction of the existing objects, and at construction of new, providing the necessary level of accuracy and quality and, as a result, performance improvement. The design cycle is reduced, projects are implemented quicker: amendments on a costs basis are entered to short terms, process of approval and a statement takes less time.

Main features

• easy integration with the main corporate GIS systems allows to save time and money;

• design process becomes more effective thanks to the built-in MicroStation tools of the most full-function environment of information modeling of infrastructure;

• settlement process of cost and the analysis accelerates and becomes more transparent thanks to carrying out calculation of cost for each solution "on the fly" and to flexible management by design accomplishment;

• design and management are executed in one application that provides cost reduction and simplifies workflow due to integration into profile GIS based on the reliable Bentley Map platform;

• effective management of work requests and design can be performed both in a standalone mode, and due to easy integration with a set of management systems the worker for process;

• performance and speed of execution of works increase against the background of risk reduction thanks to interaction with ProjectWise, the system of the Bentley servers for joint work which allows operating organizations to increase quality of data on design and construction, to analyze them and to reuse;

• an opportunity to publish project drawings and cards of networks in the form of the containers i-model which can be browsed using portable devices, using the Bentley Map Mobile application, provides reliable process of information exchange.
