by AF 1110 g3 — November 16, 2009—Accordant Locator from CAD Management (CADM) is a Commercial Real Estate (CRE) software product that includes an innovative space recharge method and a versatile move management system. Tried and tested in a wide range of environments, it has been proven to deliver substantial savings in time and money.
Accordant Locator uses a number of technologies developed by CADM to provide a managed environment for CAD information, working with everyday tools such as AutoCAD and SQL databases. It can be used as a 100 percent Web-deployed system or installed on the user’s system.
According to the company, the heart of Accordant Locator is a Location System that creates a user definable grid structure over individual buildings or an entire estate. Each location is a postcode’ that is exported directly to external databases thus freeing’ space and location information from the CAD system.
One of the many uses of the Location System is the ability to produce accurate up-to-the minute space reports across an entire estate in a matter of seconds. The same calculation using traditional CAD methods may take several weeks, by which time the information could be out of date, according to the company.
Another popular feature is Move Manager, which provides total control of moving projects with the ability to share information before the move and respond quickly to last minute changes. Relocating people and assets uses a simple drag and drop interface and all information can be shared on the intranet for comment before the move begins. Move Manager also facilitates production of moving packs’ and additional information for contractors.
Accordant Locator is currently deployed across commercial and public sector estates in Europe, Asia, Australia and North America.
