Advice & Optimization around Bentley Systems Software

Advice & Optimization around Bentley Systems Software

Bentley Systems solutions are powerful, but their potential is often underexploited. Our service of Specialized consultancy helps you take full advantage of these tools by adapting them to your business needs, internal processes and strategic objectives.

🎯 Our mission

To accompany you in the mastery, optimization and integration Bentley software to turn your work environments into real performance engines.

Why call beCAD?

  • Advanced expertise on the Bentley Systems ecosystem
  • A pragmatic, results-oriented approach
  • A ability to combine technical, trade and pedagogy
  • Human, personalized and sustainable support

Audit & Diagnostic

Before any intervention, we complete a complete inventory:

  • Analysis of Bentley tools used (MicroStation, OpenRoads, OpenBuildings, etc.)
  • Assessment of current configurations and workflows
  • Identification of friction points, redundancy and productivity losses

This diagnosis allows us to propose targeted and relevant actions.

Configuration & Customization

Each company has its own specifics. We adapt Bentley software to your reality:

  • Advanced settings of user interfaces and preferences
  • Creating custom templates, standards and libraries
  • Implementation of coherent and evolving data structures

Objective: Make your tools more intuitive, faster and perfectly aligned with your working methods.

Optimization of work processes

We intervene on your production flows to make them more fluid and efficient:

  • Streamlining of design, modelling and documentation
  • Automation of repetitive or time-consuming tasks
  • Implementation of good practice and business standards

Result: measurable time savings, reduced errors, and better collaboration between teams.

Integration & Interoperability

Your Bentley software doesn't work in a vacuum. We facilitate their integration with your other business tools:

  • Connect with GIS, BIM, ERP or PLM solutions
  • Implementation of data gateways and compatible formats
  • Synchronization of flows between different departments or partners

A global approach for digital coherence across all your projects.

Training & Support

We do not just set up your tools: we train you and support you in their optimal use:

  • Customized, face-to-face or distance training sessions
  • Individual or group coaching
  • Creating guides and materials adapted to your projects

The goal is to make your teams autonomous, competent and confident in the use of Bentley software.

Macro development
& Plug-ins

When standard features are no longer enough, we develop custom solutions to push the limits of your Bentley software:

  • Creating macros tailored to your specific needs

  • Development of custom plug-ins to enhance the functionality of your software

  • Integration of scripts and routines to optimize workflows and reduce time spent on repetitive operations

We transform your Bentley software into even more powerful tools, perfectly aligned with your work methods and business constraints.

Some examples of cases

🏗️ Cas #1 – Optimisation des workflows dans un bureau d’études en génie civil

Client : Office of Road Infrastructure Engineering
Bentley Software Used : OpenRoads Designer, MicroStation

Issue : Modelling process too slow, duplicates in annotations, frequent errors in profiles across.

Intervention

  • Full audit of modelling practices
  • Reconfiguration of templates and presentation styles
  • Training focused on geometry and corridor tools.

Results

  • ✅ Réduction de 35 % du temps de production
  • ✅ Diminution significative des erreurs de livrables
  • ✅ Adoption d’un standard interne validé par tous les projeteurs

Testimony

« Thanks to the intervention of the beCAD team, we have completely reviewed our use of OpenRoads Designer. Their recommendations reduced our planning time by 40%, while improving the quality of deliverables. It's simple: our projectors don't want to go back. » — Julien M., Technical manager in the study office

🏢 Case #2 – BIM integration into a tertiary building project

Client Office of Architecture and Coordination BIM
Bentley Software Used : OpenBuildings Designer, ProjectWise
Issue : Difficult to structure BIM data for exchanges with partners (Revit, IFC)

Intervention :

  • Establishment of a classification structure according to IFC standards
  • Creating Smart Export Templates
  • Support in Document Management via ProjectWise

Results :

  • ✅ Fluidification des échanges interlogiciels
  • ✅ Réduction des conflits de données en phase chantier
  • ✅ Meilleure traçabilité des décisions et des versions

Testimony

« We were lost in structuring our BIM data with OpenBuildings Designer. Philippe, from the beCAD society, has guided us with pedagogy and precision. Today, our discussions with Revit partners are fluid, and our models are finally usable in the construction phase. » — Sophie D., Associate Architect, Architecture Workshop

🌍 Cas #3 – Rationalisation des processus SIG pour une collectivité territoriale

Client : Technical service of a municipality
Bentley Software Used : Bentley Map, MicroStation
Issue : Dispersed geospatial data, lack of cartographic standard, slow updating of plans

Intervention :

  • Centralisation of data in a single database
  • Creation of standardized mapping models
  • Training of staff in editing and updating plans

Results :

  • ✅ Temps de mise à jour divisé par deux
  • ✅ Amélioration de la lisibilité des plans pour les élus et les citoyens
  • ✅ Autonomie renforcée des agents techniques

Testimony

« Our GIS plans were previously dispersed and difficult to exploit. In a few weeks, beCAD has put in place a coherent structure around our various software (MicroStation, OpenRoads and OpenBuildings), trained our agents, and automated several tasks. The service is now autonomous and much more responsive. » — Marc L., Director of Technical Services of a Community of Municipalities
