New Dimension Computing has a wide range of software products relating to the construction industry, all of which are based on our principles of dramatically improving the productivity of construction professionals while maintaining ease of use and flexibility.
Software Solutions for Construction Professionals
New Dimension Computing (NDC) was established in 1996 by Martin Treadaway, previously a partner in a national practice of quantity surveyors, where NDC’s initial product QSplus software was originally developed for quantity surveyors by quantity surveyors. QSplus was redeveloped for the Windows platform by a team led by Jess Barker- Chaplin.
NDC then developed a new product, Quantity Surveyors Product Libraries (QPL) which was distributed to quantity surveyors to provide them with fully developed bills of quantities subheading and descriptions for various manufacturers products.
This product gave way to AutoSpec, a system which allows specifications to be assembled through PowerSpec, the intelligent engine, which, through asking pertinent questions, will create a “fit-for-purpose” specification and include it in a specification document with the relevant master specification clauses.
In 2006 Glenn Treadaway was appointed CEO
Recently AutoSpec was released in Australia where architects are accustomed to issuing full specification documents. The product specifications are authored by a skilled staff of Quantity surveyors, architects and graphic designers to ensure that the information, specifications, graphics and presentation are of the highest quality.
Our skilled in-house software development team ensures that the user experience is excellent.
NDC has offices in Cape Town, Johannesburg, Durban and Port Elizabeth.
