Not only is HCE committed to staffing the
firm with the finest professionals available, we have an on-going
commitment to provide that staff with state-of-the-art equipment.
Our staff is supported with latest available computers, software,
and survey equipment to help us complete our projects in a timely
manner.
HCE remains at the forefront of CADD and three-dimensional
modeling technology. Field data can be directly entered into our
CADD Design files. We have an extensive array of software to
assist in design calculations and drawing preparation. Our road
designs are a good example of 3-D technology use -- allowing
clients to "view" the completed plan prior to construction.
