We create accurate design files for GPS and total station guidance systems -- helping dozers, excavators, and graders build to grade the first time. Whether the job runs on Trimble, Topcon, or Leica, we deliver files that are ready to load and ready to work.
Machine control design files are the digital instructions that tell GPS-guided equipment exactly where to cut and fill. A properly built design surface turns a set of engineering plans into something an operator can follow in real time -- no grade stakes, no constant surveyor checks, and far less guesswork on the ground.
When those files are wrong, the problems show up fast. A surface that does not match the plan means grade busts, rework, and wasted material. On a busy Manitoba highway project, a bad file can shut down a crew for a full day while the issue gets sorted out. Multiply that across a short construction season that runs roughly May through October, and the cost of a single bad design file adds up quickly.
Accurate surfaces mean operators hit design grade on the first pass, reducing rework and keeping the schedule intact.
Manitoba's freeze-thaw cycles and tight seasonal windows mean delays cost real money. We get files delivered on time.
We build files for Trimble, Topcon, and Leica systems. Whatever guidance hardware the crew runs, the files work.
Every file is built with clear layers, proper naming, and logical breaklines so operators can find what they need without guessing.
We understand what Winnipeg-area and rural Manitoba contractors need because we come from the same industry. Road construction, subdivision grading, site development, highway expansion -- we have built files for all of it. The goal is straightforward: deliver machine control design files that work the first time so crews can focus on building instead of troubleshooting.
Getting started is simple. We set up a company profile once, then handle projects as they come in. Here is what the process looks like.
Before the first project, we collect a few details to make sure every file we deliver is ready to load without adjustments. This only needs to happen once.
Email us the CAD file for the project. We review the drawings, confirm the scope, and provide a same-day quote. Once approved, work starts immediately. For straightforward projects, we can often have the initial files ready within 72 hours. Rush jobs are handled on a case-by-case basis -- just let us know the timeline.
We deliver finished design files in the exact format the guidance system needs -- XML for Trimble, TP3 for Topcon, or whatever the crew runs. Files are organized with clear naming and proper breaklines so operators can load them and get to work without sorting through a mess. If anything needs adjusting after loading, we handle it.
Projects change. Revisions come in, scope shifts, and addendums land mid-build. We keep the files up to date as the project evolves. Once the company profile is set up, submitting new projects is as simple as sending another email.
We provide formats compatible with Trimble, Topcon, and Leica systems -- including XML, DXF, TP3, and others depending on the hardware. If a crew runs a format we have not listed, let us know when setting up the company profile and we will make sure the files are delivered in the right format.
We typically deliver files within 72 hours of confirmation. For simpler projects, turnaround can be faster. If there is an urgent deadline -- a crew waiting on site, for example -- let us know and we will do our best to accommodate.
Yes. We provide adjustments that fall within the original project scope at no extra charge. For changes beyond the original scope -- such as addendums or major design revisions from the engineer -- contact us for a quote. We work with contractors through the full life of a project, not just the initial delivery.
We build design files for a wide range of heavy civil work across Manitoba: road construction, highway projects, subdivision grading, site development, parking lots, drainage, and municipal infrastructure. If the project involves moving dirt to a designed grade, we can build the files for it.
Yes. We build files for Trimble, Topcon, and Leica guidance systems. Each brand has different file format requirements, and we handle those differences so the files are ready to load as-is. If a fleet runs mixed brands across different machines, we deliver the appropriate format for each one.
