BendWorks Software was designed to help electrical contractors adopt this new process easily. BendWorks Software allows smooth information transferring between 3D electrical modelers and the electrical prefabrication shop or foreman on the jobsite.
BendWorks Software is a first of its kind add-in software application for Autodesk Revit and Revit MEP that helps designers more efficiently optimize electrical conduit runs. BendWorks Software ensures that all conduit runs are error-free and export-ready for prefabrication or on-site bending with most Greenlee benders, saving time and reducing cost for the electrical contractor.

Cloud computing means that instead of all the computer hardware, software, and data that you are using sitting somewhere inside your company’s network, it’s provided and managed for you as a service by another company and you access it over the Internet.
