Tobishima Corporation

Civil engineering and building construction firm

Tobishima Corporation had to reorganize management resources to deal with rising IT costs due to BIM implementation. After evaluating various CAD products, considering cost, operability, installations by other companies in the same industry, and potential, Tobishima switched from its existing 2D CAD to a different, but highly compatible solution: ARES CAD software.
