Leverage the Power of AutoCAD Civil 3D
At Pacific Alliance, we have helped the mapping industry realize the power of data coupled with graphics through GIS and the building industry leverage the power of Building Information Modeling (BIM) through Revit. We have also shown the civil engineering, surveying, and drafting community how to leverage the power and robustness of AutoCAD Civil 3D. Join your peers as they upgrade to the latest dynamic civil modeling software from Autodesk.
Autodesk has completed a case study profiling our approach

With an implementation team led by a consultant that has developed the Autodesk certified course-ware on Civil 3D and provided consulting engagements on many civil design projects in Western Canada, your organization is well-equipped to receive consulting & implementation services for Civil 3D with Pacific Alliance Technologies.
Civil3D implementation services and training are typically provided by PAT as part of their Structured Implementation Process (SIP):
• Requirements Analysis – Although there are similarities between implementations, every firm is different. To customize an implementation, Pacific Alliance will sit down with you to understand your project, people and processes.
• Organization Roundtable – During the discovery phase, Pacific Alliance will set up a roundtable with all the stakeholders from your organization, at all levels, to meet and commit to a common understanding of what will determine the success of the implementation.
• Essentials Training – Essentials Training is typically a 3-day hands-on, classroom-based course. Topics covered can be viewed on our course syllabus; however, based on the initial assessment, course material can be adjusted to meet specific requirements.
• Project Set-up –It is recommended that the project team commence work on a project as soon as possible after Essentials Training. Proper set-up is critical to a successful start-up; an investment in Templates, CAD standards, etc. at the beginning can save much frustration later.
• Specialized Training – Over the years, Pacific Alliance has determined that Essentials Training, while sufficient to get a project started, is not sufficient for solving detailed or complex problems that inevitably emerge when working on a project in Civil3D. It is recommended that users take Specialized Training on project-specific topics 1-2 weeks after the commencement of a project.
• On-the-Job Mentoring – During the course of the project, Pacific Alliance strongly advocates scheduling regular, on-site or online mentoring with a Pacific Alliance technical consultant. This mentoring process is a unique and proven process offered by Pacific Alliance.
• Reviews & Project Tracking – The final step involves Pacific Alliance conducting periodic reviews, tracking a project’s process and conducting a final review at the completion of a project. Ongoing assessment is critical to ensure the success of a Civil3D implementation.
