Intergraph To Supply CAD/CAE Systems Intergraph Corporation, Hunts- ville, Ala., announced that the U.S. Navy has added its Windows NT- based computer-aided emergency dispatch system to the $422-mil- lion Facilities CAD-2 contract. Intergraph was selected by the U.S. Navy to provide computer- aided design and engineering (CAD/CAE) systems for architec- ture, engineering and construction (AEC) and geographic information systems (GIS) applications. The award is a major component of the Navy's approximately $1.2 billion CAD-2 program for the acquisition of computer-aided design, manufacturing and engi- neering (CAD/CAM/CAE) systems based on commercial off-the-shelf technology. The Facilities CAD-2 contract is the first opportunity for federal buyers to implement Windows NT with the concept of the technical desktop, which inte- grates technical and business applications in a single system for maximum productivity and econo- my. The first CAD-2 contract, from the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA), was awarded to Intergraph in 1991. The most recent CAD-2 contract, from the Naval Air Systems Command and Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command, was awarded in 1994. All branches of the U.S. military may buy from Facilities CAD-2, as well as civilian federal agencies such as federal public safety agen- cies, the U.S. Coast Guard, the Department of Energy, and the Environmental Protection Agency.
