Roberts and representative of the 2009 Africa Rail Sponsors, UCW
Partnership.
In accepting the award, Chris Palfreyman, regional director of Bentley
Systems in Africa, said, “I am pleased and honored to accept this award on
behalf of our more than 2,700 colleagues around the world. This recognition
underscores Bentley’s ongoing commitment to the rail industry and further
validates our strategy of supporting users throughout the lifecycle of the
infrastructure they design, build, and operate.”
Palfreyman added, “Bentley’s rail and transit solution covers all aspects
of track and related infrastructure. With the V8i releases of key products
like Bentley Rail Track, MicroStation, and the ProjectWise collaboration
system, Bentley’s solution becomes the most comprehensive for this sector in
the world.”
