MicroCADD Solutions was incorporated in 1991 and began with a team of architects and interior designers on a project documenting approximately a third of a million square feet for the Joint Chiefs of Staff space in the Pentagon. The first project was completed on time and under budget, despite ever-changing plans. Since then, MicroCADD Solutions has been assisting firms in BIM and CAD implementation, both instructor led and online training as well as assisting in computer drafting. Many of our clients have been using our services for over 10 years.
