Project. Wise Authentication - Internal Federated against our Active Directory Connection Client Simply enter email address and click tab or enter ADFS Federation automatically passes Windows AD authentication to Bentley making sign in a breeze! Transportation

Project. Wise Authentication - External Bentley IMS Identity Management System 1 Identity is checked against the email domain of your company (ex. bledwards 1@ACME. com) PEF User Project Access 2 1) Create User Account in Project. Wise 2) Assign to Group in Project. Wise Write access permission will be established by PW Admin and will be restricted to the Project specific area that PEF is working on NCDOT PW Admin Transportation

Project. Wise Users/Group Project. Wise System Admins must create users/groups in Project. Wise in order for them to access Project. Wise Power Users in Units can manage (add/remove) users from respective groups. (Ex. Mike Kelly can add or remove people from the Hydraulic Users group) Project Leads can manage PEF Groups access to Projects PEF Group management – We can authorize representative from PEF to administer users within their respective groups Transportation

Managed Workspaces (CADD) Workspaces are built in to Project. Wise • Folder Driven - Any DGN file opened under a Hydraulics folder will open Micro. Station in Hydraulics workspace, and so on. • First Time Open – Project. Wise has to download the entire workspace. All subsequent opens pull only workspace deltas • Speed Expectations - Slow on first time open Transportation

NCDOT Open. Roads Designer Update Transportation

What are other DOTs doing with ORD? Virginia Currently on SS 4 Targeting end of 2019 for ORD implementation UTAH Have already started a small number of Projects in ORD; otherwise 95% still in SS 4 Texas Currently on SS 4 Targeting Spring of 2019 for ORD implementation South Carolina Currently on SS 4 Targeting 2020 for ORD implementation Transportation

Why Move to Open. Roads Designer (ORD) ? Open. Roads Designer is 3 d model centric, meaning it is built for creating intelligent 3 d models that reflect cutting edge technological trends in transportation design and construction. Open. Roads Designer will offer increased productivity through advanced model creation that will reduce both design errors and construction costs resulting from design-related changes. Open. Roads Designer will support the benefits of digital deliverables, including industry trends of AMG (Automated Machine Grading) and e. Construction. Transportation

WHY ORD? • Bentley is discontinuing support for all product lines January 1, 2021 except CONNECT Edition V 8 i (SS 2) Support Expires Oct 1, 2018 Support Discontinues July 1, 2019 V 8 i (SS 3/4) Support Expires July 1, 2019 Support Discontinues Jan 1, 2020

WHEN? … And HOW do we get there? • Chief Little memo sent August 14, 2018 Implementation: Q 1 -2019 • “ORD Pilot Program” (Start … Q 4– 2018) Ø Produce an integrated model PLANS Ø Test: Software, workspaces, workflows Ø Files managed using Project.
