Definition
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 co
