CADD Centers of Florida Inks SITEOPS® Reseller Agreement with BLUERIDGE Analytics®

BLUERIDGE Analytics, providers of SITEOPS land development optimization software (http://www.siteops.com), announced that CADD Centers of Florida has signed on as its fourth authorized U.S. reseller.

SITEOPS Design SP, a web-based software tool for preliminary site design, is the initial BLUERIDGE CAD product available via resellers. This design product uses the auto-draw tools from SITEOPS Single Pad and Multi Pad optimization software to enable rapid site selection assessments. Users can create and revise numerous conceptual site layouts, determining whether a building and parking are feasible on single pad sites, with multiple pad capability slated for October.

Gregory Arkin, CADD Centers Vice President, stated, "As we make the transition from 2D to 3D, 4D, and 5D in the AEC industry, SITEOPS is not only an amazing tool, but clearly provides an immense advantage to our customers with its ability to design, calculate and analyze construction and layout feasibility very early in the design process."

Arkin added, "As the largest civil and government reseller in Florida, we are honored to have been selected to partner with SITEOPS to revolutionize the workflow and process for our customers. Whether it's developers, architects, civil engineers or contractors, SITEOPS fits in perfectly with our BIM platform of products. We're very excited about integrating the technology into the AEC industry."

BLUERIDGE kicked off its CAD market reseller program in April 2009, and within three months added five U.S.-based resellers and a referral arrangement in Brazil. Resellers are strategically selected to develop coverage of the U.S. architecture-engineering-construction (AEC) software market, typically without direct competition. This offers resellers a chance to differentiate themselves with a unique SaaS product.

"The response to this program is outstanding," said Al Wojcik, BLUERIDGE Vice President of Sales. "CAD resellers want innovative products that will help their clients produce faster, better designs. Resellers love the SaaS/cloud computing model. Online software means they don't have to stock or ship our products - they can be delivered on-demand."

Land developers, retailers, and civil engineers use SITEOPS Single Pad and Multi Pad to produce site layout options and cost reports to identify substantial savings for commercial and retail properties.

Other SITEOPS Design SP resellers include Holman's of Nevada, U.S. CAD, and Duncan-Parnell.

SITEOPS is "CAD with a Brain” - web-based software that reduces the time and cost of land development. Real estate developers, retailers, and civil engineers use SITEOPS products to perform real-time feasibility simulations and optimize site designs.

Clients include Lowe's Companies, Target, Regency Centers, McIntosh & Associates, and Hendrick Automotive Group, and other leading retailers, civil engineers, architects, and land developers.

Charlotte-based BLUERIDGE Analytics delivers computing software to target markets in retail, real estate, and AEC industries.
