Benchmarking CAD Skills - CADsmart

Introduction

Inefficient use of CAD technology wastes millions of pounds worldwide each year. Missed deadlines, project re-working, problems on site caused by inaccurate drawings - a host of issues can lead to construction projects experiencing delays during build phase which could easily have been avoided with better working practices at the design stage.

CAD technology is often used on multiple projects at the same time, across sites, and even across locations worldwide. This, combined with the trend towards outsourcing and off-shoring of production information work, means it is valuable to be able to benchmark the performance of teams using CAD software in order to maintain high standards.

Information relating to CAD productivity and performance can impact training plans, recruitment, resourcing, new staff inductions, software upgrades and annual appraisals. Each of these areas can benefit from a clear understanding of each individual's ability to use CAD software.
