The Mott MacDonald Group - one of the world's leading management, engineering and development consultancies - recently committed a significant investment into CSC's building design software for their UK offices - including the flagship products Fastrak, Orion and 3D+.

In this partnering arrangement, Mott MacDonald's 'Building and Infrastructure' (BNI) Division are now capitalising on the undeniable power of CSC's building design and CAD modeling software, enabling them to provide a more responsive service to clients, control variations and alternative schemes - and produce better quality deliverables, such as drawings, calculations and quantities.

The investment comprises Fastrak Building Designer/Wind Modeller for the automatic

design of complex structural steelwork buildings; Orion for the automatic design of reinforced concrete building structures and 3D+ for AutoCAD based modeling and drawing production. All of these software products use intuitive 'object-based' intelligent modeling, which in turn leads to quicker modeling, more automation and control as well as faster and more accurate results. Numerous licences of these products now reside on Mott MacDonald's Wide Area Network, accessible by all BNI technical staff when required.

Barry Chapman, CSC's National Sales Manager, comments - "The alliance that we have formed between Mott MacDonald and CSC is clearly fantastic news for both companies involved. I am confident that CSC can meet the demands of such a progressive company as Mott MacDonald, with our proven technical reputation, our capable backup and our ongoing innovation
