Their service is based upon a combination of experience, safe working practices with a structured corporate social responsibility policy, an enthusiasm to explore and use alternative methods and materials, flexible management and organisational structure plus a desire to reduce the environmental impact of our company.

Bathroom and washroom design specialist Swift Horsman has selected Micro Concepts to provide Autodesk Inventor 3D design software with integrated Vault data management.  Swift Horsman is to use the state-of-the-art design software to design facilities for public organisations including government buildings and hospitals as well as the Virgin Atlantic Bar at Heathrow Airport’s Terminal 5.

“Micro Concepts took the time to get to know our business and developed a thorough understanding of how we worked before it recommended a solution,” says Gerard Moran of Swift Horsman.  “Its consultants provided expert tips on various best practices so that we can now get our products to market quicker than ever before.”

 
“Inventor’s template library makes it simple for Swift Horsman to recall and reuse existing design elements rather than re-create them from scratch,” says Micro Concepts managing director, Peter Hurst.  “In addition, its DWG format means that the company now creates all its designs in an easily transferable, industry-standard form.”
