2 DATASHEET: TSI PROFESSIONAL SERVICES Subscription Offerings Technical Sales International (TSI) is part of the Autodesk Development Network (ADN) and offers sales, consulting, training, data and support services for Autodesk Fabrication software products (Fabrication CADmep, Fabrication ESTmep, and Fabrication CAMduct) and SysQue Revit MEP Fabrication Solutions. TSI Subscription provides the MEP data content, software configuration, implementation blueprints and professional services necessary to achieve the highest possible levels of efficiency, productivity and cost savings. Experience and Expertise TSI has been developing innovative features and processes to enhance and support the Autodesk Fabrication product line long before it was an Autodesk product line. Since its inception in 2001 as a development partner to MAP Software, TSI has grown into a multidisciplinary organization, fulfilling the mechanical, electrical and plumbing industries BIM software requirements for building services and fabrication. TSI s professional services from configuration and implementation to training, phone and online support are great. TSI provides the kind of service and expertise (most of their team have real-world, on-the-job MEP experience) that you just don t get when dealing with big conglomerates. Chuck Fell, President, CFI Mechanical Our staff s decades of on-the-job industry experience and expertise result in trade-specific best practices and a comprehensive database of MEP manufacturer content with nearly one million items under management, all of which help you take full advantage of BIM-driven fabrication workflows. TSI s offerings of software, managed data content, and professional services have been honed over years of helping MEP contractors design, visualize, fabricate and construct their projects, saving them time and money while enhancing their competitive advantage.

3 TSI SUBSCRIPTION EXCLUSIVES Implementation, Training and Support All Under One Roof As a TSI customer, you re not going to be abandoned after the sale. At TSI, your sales person is also your account manager so you have relationship continuity. One company, one phone number for all of your needs. Make the right call and have the experts on your team. Personal, Domestic Customer Support Team Work with a personal, domestic customer support team who remembers your name and your case details, has years of industry experience, knows the software inside-out and has actually used it; not just read a manual (you could do that on your own). TSI helped develop and has been supporting the Fabrication product line since No other reseller has that depth of knowledge. Furthermore, TSI doesn t charge extra for advanced phone support all of our support is advanced because we know you want fast solutions and minimum downtime. That s not something reserved for huge companies. All of our customers large and small are important to us. Exclusive Access to MEP Component Database All TSI customers receive access to the acclaimed Building Data MEP component database the largest integrated mechanical, electrical and plumbing component database in North America. You have the option of using pre-built manufacturer components that will make your detailing fast and accurate, will ultimately reduce your company s labor costs and improve efficiency, quality and productivity. Autodesk Fabrication software doesn t include this level of enhanced data out of the box and with it, you ll leave your competitors in the dust. Having access to the TSI Managed Content allowed us to cut and spool sections of pre-fab pipe and fittings with complete confidence that the information contained in the model was 100% accurate. Tom Downey, BIM Manager Walsh Mechanical Contractors TSI has empowered us to perform BIM since before the acronym became the popular catch phrase in the construction industry that it is today. Timothy Allison, P.E., LEED AP, Sr. PE Murray Company Configuration Out of the Box When you purchase your subscription from TSI, the configuration is already done. Configuration is the compilation of all the necessary data, system options, pre-setup services, custom AutoCAD ribbons, plot file (CTB) to match services out of the box, annotations, local pricing and labor, and pre-setup specifications for a given region (U.S., U.K., Australia, etc.). This way, you re able to use the system out of the box to perform your actual job, instead of having to set up the system before you can use it. No other reseller does that for you. Classroom Training Included With Subscription A full week of classroom training is included with every license. You don t have to purchase training separately from the software. We think it s only fair that you quickly get productive after your investment. If you don t want or need classroom training, you don t have to use it. It s entirely up to you.

4 Customized Training & Implementation You may prefer to learn in your own office. Our consultants have used this software in the field for years (and in some cases they even helped develop the software). For subscription customers, our experts can work with you at your office to determine the best strategy for putting your new solutions to productive use. You ll get the skills, techniques and advice you need at your convenience from the best in the industry. Immediate Access to Software Releases When on subscription, you ll have immediate access to the latest software releases and product enhancements, keeping you ahead of the competition. Plus, staying current on your subscription lowers your upgrade costs, helping you maintain a predictable software budget. TSI s MEP managed content library is far superior to what s otherwise available, because TSI really listens to the end-users, takes that input, and improves their product offerings on an annual basis. Chuck Fell, President CFI Mechanical Parallel Tracks Contractors often choose one of two paths, and TSI supports both fully: 1) Autodesk Fabrication products (AutoCAD) 2) SysQue (Revit MEP) Both product lines are supported with Building Data ITM and RFA content, which includes over 800,000 components. When a TSI CADmep customer has the need to move to Revit MEP, we are here to help with Revit MEP content (SysQue Data) and the technical knowhow. TSI, as an Autodesk ISV, can offer bundled pricing for Revit MEP, SysQue and your existing CADmep Fabrication support and subscription. Bundle Fabrication, Revit and SysQue TSI offers attractive price bundle options for Autodesk Fabrication, Revit MEP and SysQue, including seamless support and professional services. So if you re currently using Fabrication products and also have Revit deliverables (or foresee the need for them), you can save money, resources and time by using a single partner resource for your implementation, training and support. Within 7 days, our modeler went from zero experience with SysQue to being functional in front of a major client project team. Herb Yamamoto, CEO CADD Connection LLC
