ADePT Design Builder
There are 2 purchase options for the ‘Design Builder’ software application:
ADePT Design Builder: full integration with Primavera (P6) and MS Project
ADePT Design Builder lite: full two-way dynamic integration with MS Project
The alternative option of having a ‘network key’ is also available – this would enable your business to take ownership of a number of concurrent licenses that can be utilized on a share basis by any member of staff within the business via the network. Should the license capacity be reached further licenses can be enabled via the network key for immediate use. This is a much more attractive and flexible option for national roll-out.
