LOS ANGELES (BE Conference 2007), May 1, 2007 – Bentley Systems, Incorporated today announced the ProjectWise Passport – a versatile, portable, and global license for collaboration.

Said Bhupinder Singh, senior vice president, Bentley Software, “To improve the world’s infrastructure, globally distributed enterprises must be able to quickly and easily connect their people and information to facilitate collaboration and improve productivity. Today, 42 of the 50 leaders among the ENR Top 500 Design Firms are using the ProjectWise collaboration system to successfully deliver their infrastructure projects.”

The ProjectWise Passport provides ProjectWise users with a versatile collaboration license that is portable between projects. With just one ProjectWise Passport a user is now licensed for any ProjectWise client, including:

  • ProjectWise StartPoint
  • ProjectWise Navigator
  • ProjectWise Explorer
  • ProjectWise InterPlot Organizer

For example, with ProjectWise Navigator – Bentley’s newest addition to the ProjectWise collaboration system – project team members can review and enrich original 2D and 3D design content. This promotes full design collaboration within an iterative workflow to cycle the enriched content back to the design team.

In addition to working as an independent desktop application, ProjectWise Navigator can also operate in a managed environment as a client to ProjectWise StartPoint or ProjectWise Integration Server. Again, the ProjectWise Passport will license all such uses.

Added Singh, “So each user needs only one ProjectWise Passport, no matter how many ProjectWise clients and/or servers he uses to collaborate. This makes licensing and deploying any part of the ProjectWise collaboration system extremely easy and cost-effective, and enables all holders to join any project already equipped for collaboration with the entire team.”

Using ProjectWise technologies, teams are experiencing a faster time to ROI than the 12-month norm. This is due, in part. to their increased ability to manage, find, and share valuable project content for reuse, and immersively review and analyze project designs. High-level benefits include:

  • Closer connections between people and information across a distributed enterprise
  • Increased project quality leading to improved service to clients
  • Easier change management, reduced risk, reduced rework, and cost avoidance

A ProjectWise Passport can be procured as a perpetual license or as a subscription for project use. For more information on the ProjectWise Passport or the ProjectWise collaboration system, go to www.bentley.com/ProjectWise

About ProjectWise

ProjectWise is a scalable collaboration system for connecting people and information across the distributed enterprise. It includes desktop clients and servers.

On the desktop, ProjectWise Navigator delivers visual collaboration for design review and analysis plus work packaging. ProjectWise StartPoint extends Microsoft SharePoint to enable collaboration for MicroStation and AutoCAD users. Used together or individually, they open the power of ProjectWise to a broad population of new users and teams.

For the enterprise, ProjectWise Integration Server delivers federated engineering content management. It connects to servers for caching data, for automating and managing plotting, and for integrating with SharePoint to expose ProjectWise content to the wider project team.
