May
26, 2004, Portland, ME - InterSpec, LLC ("InterSpec") announced
today that it has entered into a joint marketing agreement with
Autodesk, Inc., San Rafael, California. InterSpec's e-SPECS®
family of specification automation systems interface with Autodesk®
Revit, Autodesk® Architectural Desktop, Autodesk® Building Systems,
and AutoCAD® software, demonstrating the power of the new building
information modeling (BIM) approach for the AEC industry.
The
agreement enables InterSpec to increase the visibility of its
e-SPECS products to the Autodesk customer base while Autodesk
benefits by demonstrating the power of their core BIM solutions
for automating non-drawing, downstream applications.
"Our e-SPECS software automates the preparation of construction
specifications for architects who use Autodesk design software
saving them time and money while ensuring that the construction
drawings agree with the specifications," said Michael Brennan,
President of InterSpec. "Autodesk Revit is an especially powerful
combination with our product because of the integrated change
management and coordination. We are very excited by the opportunity
to work with Autodesk to further automate this industry, helping
architects and engineers who are in search of efficiencies reduce
costs and increase their bottom line."
"e-SPECS is a terrific product for building design professionals
and an especially good example of how partner applications can
take advantage of the high-quality, consistent, and always-coordinated
information available from our Autodesk Revit platform for building
information modeling," said Rick Rundell, AIA, Manager of Architectural
Product Marketing with Autodesk.
As an initial part of the agreement, InterSpec will participate
at the Autodesk booth at the AIA Convention
and Trade Show in Chicago on June 10 -12, 2004.
