While at the same time, continue to acquire new products such as RVT 2 DWG Conversion for PWGSC and DND CAD Standards. We selected Cansel/SolidCAD not only because of similar business philosophies, but also because of a shared passion to serve that Atlantic CAD Solutions has nurtured for over 12 years. Customers of Atlantic CAD Solutions will continue to enjoy, without disruption, the same unequaled levels of service to which they were accustomed, since all members of the existing team will be part of the newly opened offices of Cansel/SolidCAD in Hanwell.
