Cad-Capture and Hummingbird have implemented a project centric content management solution for Parsons Brinkerhoff.

Cad-Capture and Hummingbird have implemented a project centric content management solution for Parsons Brinkerhoff, one of the world's leading planning, engineering, programme and construction management and operations and maintenance firms.

Comprising core Hummingbird Enterprise - DM and collaboration technology components, the solution enables Parsons Brinckerhoff to manage, share and collaborate on a variety of project related content such as e-mails, drawings, project plans etc, with third party project participants including clients, suppliers and contractors etc.

Key features include a flexible, scalable and secure environment for managing project related content, together with project centric workspaces, providing efficient collaboration by combining content, discussion threads and calendaring capabilities etc.

Involved in scoping and implementing the solution, Cad-Capture also delivered various drawing management components including direct integration for AutoCAD with support for xrefs and synchronisation of title block attributes for efficient profiling using its CaptureLink for AutoCAD client extension for Hummingbird Enterprise - DM, as well as the ability to view, print and mark up a variety of project related content, including native 2D CAD formats such as AutoCAD, regardless of desktop authoring application across various distributed UK sites using CaptureVue 2D.

Following the success of this implementation, Parsons Brinckerhoff intends to make Hummingbird Enterprise available across its global business operation.
