CADD developed and continues to work directly to update and modernize the USACE Civil 3D standards, which are used not only by the Army Corps but also by countless other organizations that leverage publicly available assets for their own work.
CADD’s ongoing partnership with USACE
Continuing to Support the USACE Mission
Design and construction technology is critical for engineers and contractors supporting USACE, and CADD is at the forefront of providing timely and effective solutions for their work. With a unique understanding of the federal space in general, and USACE specifically, CADD is positioned to help USACE’s users work more efficiently and productively.
Training
Using USACE standards and projects as our basis, CADD has conducted countless hours of hands-on training for USACE teams. In addition to our standard class offerings, CADD has also developed custom training for individual districts and teams, focusing on their unique requirements and needs.

Bentley to Autodesk Migration Support
Implementing new software can be daunting, but CADD’s team has performed countless migrations to AutoCAD, Civil 3D, and Revit for both commercial and government clients over the years. To help support Autodesk’s expanding portfolio for USACE, in addition to our typical migration activities, CADD has developed tools and resources to specifically support USACE’s needs, with many of these tools becoming industry standards or being leveraged for other organizations looking to move to Autodesk.
