Bentley Announces ProjectWise Passport for Collaboration
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

About ProjectWise
ProjectWise is a scalable collaboration system for connecting people and

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.
