we offer GPS Machine Control Models, Surface Models, 3D GPS Models For your Earthwork Projects
We know you have a lot of choices when it comes to your provider for your modeling needs. That is why we try our hardest to offer you the best service, a fair price, and a quick turnaround.
Our pricing is project independent. We charge based on the amount of work that goes into the project which is a benefit to the customer. Lets face it, some CAD files are a disaster and take more work than others. With that said, some are really good and the amount of work to prep and elevate the data is minimal. Our approach is in order to save you money, we don't price as a flat rate or a minimum rate per type or size of project like some of our competitors. We will give you a not to exceed price and if we can complete the project faster than we anticipate we charge accordingly. If it takes us longer than we thought, then that is on us. This strategy is based on experience. We aren't just computer nerds...... we have been in your shoes and dealt with the ridiculous prices for models on some sites. That is what prompted this business to start as we have years of in the field experience actually building the projects, years of experience in estimating projects, years of experience in using GPS equipment, and years of experience in tailoring GPS models to fit the contractor. Your success is our success.
CD Construction & Design Solutions will take your information and transform it into a 3D model for your GPS. We usually will have a model ready for a typical commercial site in 1-2 days depending on the quality of the information supplied. If your in a bind we will try our best to provide you with it sooner if needed. We can always give you the pad and rough grade to get you going while we finalize everything else. Road projects depending on lengths will take longer, just reach out and we can give you an estimated time once we take a look.
We will also double check the model to make sure everything drains and there are no water holes. If there is an issue with the plan design we will let you know so you can either check with your engineer on the project or just instruct us to go ahead and fix it if it is nothing major. There is a video below that shows one way we double check for drainage issues.
We will provide you with as much or little detail as you desire:
If you have a private project that doesn't have an engineered plan, send us a topo of whatever area your wanting to work on, and visit with us about the goal for the end result. We will work with you to help design the project and help you make your customer a happy one! Whether it's a pond, parking lot, driveway, etc. we can help.
The result of our experience is an unmatched familiarity of equipment setup, localization, installation, and operation from the office to the field to actually perform work. That said, our goal is to support you and your business, we can export to Trimble, Leica, and Topcon to use within your existing workflow. All exports can be requested as plan sized pages in PDF, fully branded with your company name, and include legends or other notes.

We will provide you with as much or little detail as you desire:
- Linework of the site. Line work is more less what you see on the pdf plan. We will typically add the necessary linework for your scope of work since more data makes the model slower but we can put as much info as you desire on the model. This will include utilities, storm, curbs, sidewalks, etc.
- 3D Linework of storm pipe if desired.
- A model set to finish grade. This will save you money vs having different subgrade models built. And all you have to do is change your offset in your machine. This typically works out the best for most contractors.

Earthwork contractors understand how critical drainage can be on a project. This video shows one way digital models can ensure water flows like it’s supposed to, which can highlight any issues before the work begins— saving cost and stress.
Here are some examples of models for our clients.
