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.
