A software vendor's sustained focus on collaboration is paying off for infrastructure developers across many sectors with the evolution of a collaboration ecosystem built on common tools and philosophy.
Bentley Systems Inc., Exton, Pa., presented a bevy of new product and acquisition announcements and project awards at its annual "Be Inspired" conference in Amsterdam on Nov. 12-16. The event is for invited power users of Bentley's array of infrastructure design and development software. While most announcements focused on specific sectors—ranging from geospatial engineering to oil and gas, telecommunications, utility development, and civil and structural engineering, among others—the common denominator is that the announcements represent enhancements and variations to the common collaboration system Bentley has been developing for many years.
