Interview with Mr. L. Bublik

  1. What kinds of clients do you serve?

    As a mechanical engineer I work with any individuals or companies that need my special design expertise.

  2. What was the most interesting CAD project that you ever worked on? What made it interesting?
    What challenges did you face?

    I recently had a project for treatment tables for hospitals with special design features that were very interesting to work on. Challenges were to find special electric motors and switches for the tables.

  3. Of the software tools that you use, which is your favorite and why?

    SolidWorks is the best and my favorite because it is solid modelling and you can see right away what kind of product you are designing.

  4. What trends are you observing in the market for CAD services? How have these trends affected you, and how are you responding to them?

    Clients try to pay less because of the slow job market; they want more work for less money so I have to accept any reasonable offer.

  5. What do you like about working as an interim CAD draftsman or external CAD consultant working on a time-bound project?

    I like working free-lance because I can have a more flexible schedule.

  6. Have you ever provided CAD consulting services remotely, either via phone, the Web or email?
    Do you use any screen sharing tools (like Webex, Skype, or GoToMeeting), and are they effective?
    What kinds of questions and problems could you tackle remotely?
    Are there any issues that you feel are better handled face-to-face?

    I use Skype for remote meetings and also the phone. Skype is good for design work questions because I can share my screen and resolve problems. If I have customers in my area I meet with them in person.

Interview with Mr. D. Hildebrandt

  1. What kinds of clients do you serve? What is your particular area of expertise?

    Civil Engineers, Structural Engineers, Architects, Mechanical Engineers, Electrical Engineers, Environmental Consultants, Geologists, Telecommunications Engineers, and Builders. All phases of construction design and drafting using AutoCad, Civil 3D, and a host of graphical and processing software.

  2. What was the most interesting CAD project that you ever worked on? What made it interesting?
    What challenges did you face?

    The JFK International Airport Air Train. I was one of the designers responsible for traffic control, pedestrian control, and crane movements. Time was a crucial factor, as it was near-impossible to design in advance due to construction timelines, change orders, etc. Therefore every inch of the way (a year in the making) required fast-paced engineering and realistic answers to very limiting factors.

  3. Of the software tools that you use, which is your favorite and why?

    Civil 3D is my favorite, as it includes all the tools I need to help design including survey data manipulation, earthwork calculations, road design, and profiling tools for utilities and infrastructure design.

  4. What trends are you observing in the market for CAD services? How have these trends affected you, and how are you responding to them?

    More dedicated services. A shrinking job market requires dedication and hard work in order to hold on to clients. I’ve got to work harder to keep the work coming. There are many people looking for work who can do what I do for a fraction of the cost so I’ve had to cut corners and make deals that work in favor of my clients. Of course they work in my favor too as I’ve not lost any work and am very grateful to be busy.

  5. What do you like about working as an interim CAD draftsman or external CAD consultant working on a time-bound project?

    I’ve always viewed the 24 hours in a day as my time when I’m not required to show up to an 8 to 5 job. I can work any time at my own pace (always very fast) and spend quality time with my family. It is an all-around flexible way to operate. Sometimes it’s difficult to make time for multiple clients, but dedication and superior workmanship are the key.

  6. Have you ever provided CAD consulting services remotely, either via phone, the Web or email?
    Do you use any screen sharing tools (like Webex, Skype, or GoToMeeting), and are they effective?
    What kinds of questions and problems could you tackle remotely?
    Are there any issues that you feel are better handled face-to-face?

    Yes. I do work remotely via email and phone. The background I posses enable ease in communication. I’ve been dealing with engineers for 25 years. I haven’t the need to work using screen-sharing. Closely-located clients, email, scanning, phone calls, and travel cover all the bases. Any and all engineering or design projects. Of course face-to-face is easier, but engineers need flexible and experienced designers to make their projects grow quickly and accurately.
