1. You say hello!
The first step is to contact DCM. You’ll have a no-obligation chat with one of our amazing Account Managers and share the details with us by phone or email.
2. You send us your source files
You have drawings in a format you can’t use. We need those—no matter how poor the quality. Email us your PDFs, JPEGs, TIFF files, or use FTP file transfer. For hard copies, prints, and scans, ship them by courier (and whisper “be gone!”).
3. We estimate cost and time
Your CAD Account Manager will review all specifications and provide a quote and timeline for the overall project.
Cost: Depends on size, discipline, density, clarity of the source files, and volume (we apply a discount for multiple drawings). Our standard pricing includes basic AIA standards, but we can follow specific requests.
Timeline: 1-3 business days to get things rolling. Then we deliver as drawings are completed at a rate of 2-5 files daily.
4. You approve
You approve and it’s gone time! The conversion to digital CAD begins.
5. We prep the source file
We scan the source drawing and address crookedness, speckling (unwanted pixels), and blurriness. This step is both manual and automated processes.
6. We redraw
We then overlay the source drawing and manually redraw, confirming the correct software translation. This is where our quality trumps any software, nothing compares to the human touch.
7. We apply your specifications
We ensure all entities are represented as intended and apply your client-specific requirements and layers or by default, we will apply AIA standards.
8. We launch DCM’s 8-point Quality Control
The drawing now enters DCM’s proprietary 8-point process that is both manual and automated. This is where DCM Inc. stands out; your drawings are analyzed by a team of quality assurance experts. This is done twice—by two separate teams. We got this fine-tuning thing down.
9. We authorize
Our awesome production managers look over your drawings to make sure they are complete. Greenlight go, it’s time for your thumbs up.
10. We deliver
Your skilled CAD Account Manager (who supports you through your project) delivers your converted drawing. You now have a fully editable AutoCAD file with printable layouts. And we dance.
11. You pay
Our favourite part (ha!). Once 100% satisfaction has been met, project payment is collected by debit, credit card, cheque, PayPal, or money transfer.
If you are a Facility Manager, Engineer, Architect, Contractor, or Property Manager occasionally you may find yourself in a situation with blueprints and engineering drawings that are not in an editable format. Some of the drawings may require you to modify and or update the drawing information for upcoming renovations, additions or merely to keep the drawing current. By converting your drawings to an editable Computer-Aided Design (CAD) format; software such as AutoCAD provides significant features. Such as flexibility that paper, scans, or composite hybrid drawings do not.
