MicroStation V8i was named CAD Software Product of the Year and STAAD.Pro was named Structural Analysis Software of the Year. In addition, Bentley’s GenerativeComponents generative design software was recognized as runner-up in the Product of the Year category. The Construction Computing Awards showcase and reward technology, tools, and solutions for the effective design, construction, maintenance, and modification of commercial buildings, residential and social housing, and civil engineering projects of all sizes. The winners were selected by Construction Computing magazine’s readership, which includes IT professionals in construction, product, project, and service companies.
Josh Boulton, director of the Construction Computing Awards program, said, “This recognition underscores Bentley’s acknowledged commitment to developing innovative, value-creative infrastructure software. Winning in any one of these categories is difficult. Capturing two awards in a single year is a distinction shared by only a few companies. I congratulate the Bentley team on this impressive achievement, which builds on its success of last year when Bentley was named Company of the Year.”
Commenting on the awards, Joe Croser, Bentley global marketing director, said, “Having our software selected for awards by Construction Computing magazine’s audience of construction IT professionals is truly an honor. These discerning specialists are charged with providing innovative solutions that not only advance an organization’s technological capabilities, but also streamline its workflows and make it more profitable. At Bentley, we focus on these same goals in the development of our comprehensive portfolio of software for the infrastructure lifecycle.”
Construction Computing is the only U.K. magazine to focus specifically on IT solutions for the construction industry. The title is published six times a year and is combined with CAD User AEC Magazine. It has a circulation of just over 10,000 copies per issue.
The magazine’s editorial purpose is to provide information about all aspects of construction IT product and service use across the whole range of construction areas. Editorial content is placed in a construction company and construction project context. For example, how will any specific IT component improve the course of a particular construction project, and how will it improve the performance of the construction company and its relationship with the client? Content is presented so that IT can be shown to provide real construction business benefits such as increased profitability, lower costs, and faster project execution.
