"Moreover, the 3D PDF documents respect the legal requirements of the Ordre des ingnieurs du Qubec (OIQ - the self-regulatory body that governs Quebec's 55,000 professional engineers), including electronic signature and long-term archival requirements. The easy-to-interpret Anark generated dynamic 3D documents will enable us to make the MBD mock-ups of our civil engineering structures more accessible to other divisions and building contractors, thus speeding engineering, bid and building cycle times and reducing errors."
Following an extensive evaluation of numerous MBE and 3D PDF publishing solutions, Hydro-Qubec chose Anark based on four main criteria:
- Anark Core platform automates server-based MBE document publishing
- Anark SOA...
