As the national conversation focuses on the urgent need to fix aging U.S. infrastructure, Bentley Systems, Incorporated, the infrastructure engineering software company, announced that ProjectWise, its connected data environment for infrastructure project delivery, and OpenGround, its geotechnical information management and reporting software, have achieved FedRAMP® Authorization at the Moderate Impact Level.
FedRAMP, which stands for Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program, is a U.S. government initiative that accelerates the adoption and use of secure cloud-based services by the federal government. Bentley achieving FedRAMP authorization enables federal agencies and their ecosystem partners to adopt its secure, compliant cloud-based products to strengthen data-centric workflows for infrastructure programs, from transportation and water systems to defense and environmental programs.
By providing secure, interoperable, and scalable digital workflows, federal owners can further modernize their infrastructure digital delivery strategies, improve cross-agency collaboration, and adopt emerging practices such as AI, digital twins, connected construction, and real-time geotechnical intelligence within a fully compliant, FedRAMP authorized environment.
“The FedRAMP authorization signals Bentley’s longstanding commitment to trust, compliance, and safeguarding critical infrastructure information while improving how agencies securely share and manage project data in the cloud,” said Julien Moutte, chief technology officer, Bentley Systems. “ProjectWise and OpenGround provide a trusted digital foundation for federal infrastructure programs, connecting surface and subsurface intelligence in secure cloud environments to accelerate project delivery and improve infrastructure resilience, all while meeting the highest U.S. government security standards.”
Following this authorization, sponsored by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Bentley’s ProjectWise Design Integration and OpenGround are available to support a wide range of federal infrastructure initiatives, with additional ProjectWise services to follow.
