U.S. Civil 3D Templates With 2,000 Styles A Civil Engineer Harbinger Of Hope

U.S. Imperial AutoCAD Civil 3D Templates with 2,000 Feature and Label Styles released to help both public and Civil Engineer organizations begin work right now.

Fresno, CA (PRWEB) - MoreCompetency, Inc., a software consulting company based in California, today announced a renewed partnership with government agencies and Civil Engineers with the release of Jump Station, a free collection of templates aimed at easing a universal problem facing many organizations attempting to adopt Civil 3D. The issue today is that the 300 styles and settings supplied in the software do not readily produce common construction documentation 'out of the box'. Reaching the levels of productivity gain inherent in Civil 3D technologies is near impossible without extensive style and template customization.

"Civil Engineers want to do engineering not customize software", says Tench Tilghman, President and CTO of MoreCompetency. "We are working with both public and private sectors to democratize the civil CAD standards they need."

First released in August of 2008, the innovative Jump Template Collections are something completely new in the marketplace. They are a massive departure from the traditional approach to implementing Autodesk software which is to internally "customize" the software from the ground up.

Instead, Jump Station was constructed as a customization platform that organizations of any size can use to more rapidly adopt, implement, and profit from their existing investment in AutoCAD Civil and AutoCAD Civil 3D modeling software. Versions of Jump Station were developed for both the 2009 and 2010 releases of Autodesk® AutoCAD Civil 3D. Jump Station is made available as an evaluation of the full Jump Start services product from cadpilot.com.

The Jump Template Collections employ a consistent set of naming conventions, built-in practical documentation for Civil 3D Feature Styles and a complex set of co-dependent Feature Label Styles designed to help federal, state and local agencies and private-sector organizations begin work right now - making the adoption and implementation of Civil 3D easier and more cost effective.

An early release of Jump Station received rave reviews by the toughest audience in North America - the best Autodesk Reseller Civil Application Engineers around. One Engineer from the Northwest said, "I am shocked at the level of detail included." Another from the Central region said, "If I were the State Department of Transportation, I'd look really hard at this (Jump Station)."
