Software Licensing for Real Estate & Construction Companies in Bangladesh
Developers and contractors run design, structural and planning software side by side. MacX licenses companies including bti and HAMKO, and this guide covers the practical stack and how to license it per project.
Design, structure and planning
- AutoCAD and Civil 3D for drawings and site development
- Revit for BIM coordination and quantity extraction
- ETABS, SAFE and STAAD.Pro for structural analysis
- Primavera P6 or Microsoft Project for programme control
- Adobe Acrobat Pro for drawing sets and tender documents
- Microsoft 365 for sales, finance and site offices
Licensing around project cycles
Design intensity peaks early in a project. We use annual licences for the core team and shorter terms for consultants brought in for a specific phase, which avoids paying twelve months for three months of work.
Why unlicensed CAD is a tender risk
Government and multinational tenders increasingly require a declaration of licensed design software. A missing entitlement record can disqualify an otherwise winning bid, and Autodesk pursues unlicensed use in Bangladesh directly.
Ordering and support
We quote in BDT with VAT, deliver into your own Autodesk or vendor account, and stay available for activation, seat moves and version questions through the term.
Frequently asked questions
- Can we license AutoCAD monthly for a short project?
- Yes — monthly, quarterly and annual terms are available.
- Is Revit included with AutoCAD?
- No, they are separate. The Autodesk AEC Collection bundles both and is usually cheaper than buying them individually.
- Do you supply structural titles like ETABS?
- Yes, including CSI titles such as ETABS and SAFE, plus STAAD.Pro and other engineering software.
