Drawing & Model Management
Open drawings straight from 12d Synergy, or save a local file into a governed location, with no manual file transfer.
Integration
Streamline Your CAD Management with BricsCAD and 12d Synergy
BricsCAD and 12d Synergy offer your design team a governed CAD environment with options to automate title blocks, full check-in/check-out history on files with a clear audit trail, all without drastically changing how you work.
WHY IT MATTERS
Spend Less Time Managing Drawings and More Time Delivering Projects
12d Synergy runs inside BricsCAD, so your team keeps control of every file and version without leaving the drawing they're working in.
Get Hours Back Every Week
Title block updates, spreadsheet tracking and clunky LISP routines eat into valuable design time. 12d Synergy takes that admin off your team inside BricsCAD, so the day goes to drafting instead of file management.
Never Lose Work to a Clash
12d Synergy's check-in/check-out prevents team members from overwriting each other's files and clearly shows who has what open, eliminating version confusion.
Track Every Change
Every check-out, edit and publish gets logged as it happens. If a drawing is ever disputed, you have the full history to point to instead of guessing through email and local drives.
HOW IT WORKS
How BricsCAD and 12d Synergy Work Together
BricsCAD integrates seamlessly with 12d Synergy providing a CAD Management system that allows you to edit, update, collaborate, track, and transmit drawings in a smarter way tailored for drafters and designers for the AEC industry.

Open & manage
Stay in sync
Track & protect
Drawing Reference Manager
Manage every Xref in the drawing from one window, with full 12d Synergy governance behind it.
Optimise Publishing
Publish a drawing or a full set straight from 12d Synergy, with the check-out prompts handled for you.
Check-in / Check-out
Lock a file while you work so no one overwrites it, and check it back in as a new version when you are done.
Insert & Refresh Attributes
Drop 12d Synergy attributes into the drawing as live fields. Update the value once and every drawing catches up.
Push Block Attributes
Change an attribute in the drawing and push it back to 12d Synergy in one click, so your CAD and your data stay in step.
Attach References with Synergy Pathing
Attach Xrefs, images and PDFs with tracked paths. Move or rename the source in 12d Synergy and the link still holds.
Audit Trail
Every check-out, edit and publish is logged against the file, so a disputed drawing always has a history.
Upload Working Copy
Send a working copy back to 12d Synergy while the file stays open, so progress is saved without breaking your flow.
Customer Success Stories
“When we discovered that 12d Synergy integrated with BricsCAD, it was a major advantage. The integration streamlined CAD management by managing Xrefs, title blocks, and PDF publishing within BricsCAD, ensuring version rollback to revert to previous drawing states and creating a seamless workflow between BricsCAD and 12d Synergy.”
