The Transcend Design Generator (TDG) enables asset owners, engineering consultants, and equipment suppliers to rapidly assess options and create preliminary designs of critical infrastructure; specifically in water, wastewater, and power projects. Users enter a limited set of project specific inputs, hit 'go', and TDG generates a complete conceptual design package including 3D BIM models, CAPEX/OPEX estimates, Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID's), and more. The platform utilizes a combination of generative design techniques including parametric rule sets, first principles engineering standards, and artificial intelligence applied to civil and structural renderings. The software has been used to design over 20,000 infrastructure projects to date in more than 70 countries. Transcend’s mission is to transform the way asset owners, technology suppliers and engineering firms assess and design critical infrastructure. Firms that adopt Transcend software achieve better outcomes, lower costs, increase revenue (bid on more projects, faster, with more detail in less time), and free up engineers to evaluate innovative technologies and sustainable design approaches, transcending the standard and sub-optimal solutions of years past. Our roots start in the infrastructure industry, where our CEO, Ari Raivetz, had spent decades investing in and building water businesses to help heal our broken planet. But his team of expert wastewater engineers had a problem: an unbelievable amount of detail was required to engineer innovative wastewater treatment infrastructure, which left little time for our engineers to innovate and focus on work they enjoyed. Rather than copy pasting, Ari and the engineers collaborated with software developers to develop the Transcend Design Generator (TDG). This cloud-based, proprietary software is the only SaaS platform that fully automates the preliminary design of vertical assets including water, wastewater, electrical substations and other critical infrastructure in 8 hours or less. With a limited set of configured, client-controlled inputs, the intelligent solution validates thousands of data points to ensure global quality and consistency of designs. The complex set of decisions then goes through several iterations before running complete static and dynamic process simulations (if necessary). Once the set of parameters are confirmed, the software optimizes critical decision making to generate a full set of engineering quality documents including SLDs, Process Schematics, P&IDs, GA Diagrams, BIM & 3D Models, Civil BOQ/BOM, and many others. TDG has now designed over 17,000 critical infrastructure assets and has thousands of active users around the world.
