Eagle Point Software, a leading provider of applied learning solutions for the architecture, engineering, construction, operation, design, and manufacturing (AECO+D&M) industries, announced a new partnership with MarkedUp AI, an emerging innovator in AI-powered construction drawing analysis. Through this collaboration, training content for MarkedUp will soon be available within Eagle Point Software’s Pinnacle Series platform, equipping architecture, engineering, and construction professionals with the knowledge needed to leverage AI for more efficient and accurate drawing review workflows. MarkedUp is a drawing audit tool which operates invisibly in existing workflows, connecting directly to project and file management systems where teams already work. The platform automatically scans plans for missing elements, mismatched tags, and schedule anomalies, sending instant alerts directly via email, Slack, or Teams. By automating the first pass of plan coordination before estimators and project managers bid, build, or share drawing sets, MarkedUp AI helps firms eliminate human error and safeguard their project contingencies. “As

Huba Control is expanding its manufacturing capacity with a second site in China. This international growth also brings new requirements for managing and controlling engineering data. To efficiently execute its growth strategy and ensure the highest standards of product quality, Huba Control is implementing CIM Database Cloud. By opening a second production facility in China, Huba Control is expanding its manufacturing capacity to meet the growing demand in Asia. This expansion also places new demands on the internal research and development processes of the Swiss manufacturer of pressure and flow sensors. Managing product data via network drives quickly reached its limits. To prevent quality issues and overcome limited scalability, a modern solution became essential. To ensure high product quality and a fast time to market, Huba Control is implementing CIM Database Cloud. The PaaS (Platform as a Service) solution from CONTACT Software will initially streamline and optimize part and document management. Additional

Capgemini announced that it has been recognized as SAP’s first partner to achieve the SAP Sovereign Cloud Partner designation. This milestone demonstrates Capgemini’s leadership in sovereign cloud and delivers on the Sovereign Technology Partnership announced in November last year. As the first SAP partner to achieve this status, Capgemini is setting the industry benchmark for how enterprise cloud and AI transformation are delivered in sovereign environments. This recognition, currently applicable in France, Germany, the Netherlands, and the United Kingdom, confirms Capgemini meets the high standards set by SAP across data residency, operational control, governance, security, and delivery capability. It enables clients globally to accelerate AI-driven transformation while retaining control over their critical systems and sensitive data. Thomas Saueressig, Chief Customer Officer and member of the Executive Board of SAP SE said, “Europe’s ability to compete globally depends on combining innovation with strong digital sovereignty. Capgemini’s achievement of this SAP Sovereign Cloud Partner milestone reflects

Cadmatic, a global developer of integrated design, engineering, and digital twin software for the marine and process industries, has strengthened its delivery capabilities for CADMATIC Wave through an expanded collaboration with Bosch Software and Digital Solutions (SDS).  This reinforces Cadmatic’s ability to scale Wave, its marine-focused Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platform, designed to provide complete visibility, traceability, and control of ship-related data across the lifecycle.  Over the past year, Cadmatic has matured its delivery model for Wave, evolving from an initial learning phase into a proven and scalable operating framework.

Hexagon AB has acquired ITRES Research Limited (“ITRES”), a Calgary-based provider of high-performance airborne hyperspectral and thermal imaging systems, strengthening Hexagon’s ability to deliver richer multi-sensor geospatial data for advanced airborne mapping and analysis. The acquisition brings together two complementary portfolios under one provider. Hexagon contributes a market-leading suite of airborne sensing and processing products for geodata development – including LiDAR point clouds, high-resolution optical imagery, digital twins, and integrated workflow software, flight planning tools and data delivery systems. ITRES adds high-performance hyperspectral and thermal imaging sensors that operate across a wide spectrum of wavelengths, enabling precise material identification and temperature analysis that existing visible and near-infrared modalities cannot deliver alone. Together, these capabilities allow customers to collect richer, more analytically powerful datasets from a single airborne survey. Fusing multispectral and thermal data with LiDAR and optical imagery opens new possibilities for ground surface assessment, object classification and thermal property
