With your kind permission, we would like to introduce DRPRO to your company.

DRPRO - Drawing Register Professional is a fully computerized Drawing Office Management System for use in an Architectural, Engineering, or literally any Drawing Office. It maintains an accurate register of anything related to the production, issuing, as well as tracking of printing costs of drawings and other documents that flow out of your office. It is fast becoming the standard in All Drawing Offices in South Africa and abroad, BIG or small!

Isuing Drawings with DRPRO 

It all started as a simple DOS program back in 1992, and since the first Windows version back in 1999, DRPRO   has been updated 51 times in total, as of DRPRO 2010, some as minor and some as major updates. For a full history of how DRPRO  has been improving over the years, please visit the News Page on our Web Site. 

DRPRO has helped improve the efficiency of drawing workflow in over 370 drawing offices throughout South Africa, Namibia, Nigeria, Mauritius, Dubai, Pakistan, USA and Australia , including most of the TOP South African Engineering, Architectural and Interior Design consultancies, as well as Project Managers, Structural Steel Fabricators, Curtain Walling Manufacturers, Post Tensioning Contractors, Brand Design Consultancies, etc. with over 1,500 individual users.

Some of these companies have recorded well over 180,000 transmittal slips, with each and every one of them being accessible at the click of a button, together with the full issue history of every single drawing recorded in the database, as well as the associated printing costs!

  DRPRO is currently being used in the new Neelum Jhelum Hydroelectric Project (Pakistan) for the purpose of controlling drawing and document flow between the professional team and the contractors. This is just one of thousands of other projects where DRPRO is being used on a daily basis.

Jacques Pretorius (Africon Johannesburg)

"I have the pleasure of using your program at KCS, the installation was straight forward and quite easy. The program itself runs smoothly and I am still occasionally amazed by what I am able to do with it. It has  helped keeping records of who gets what much easier."
Rosie Chirongooma (KCS Architects, Johannesburg)

"The DRPRO program handled it all with considerable ease and even showed up numbering and revision errors from remote offices immediately, allowing one to sort these out at the onset."
Chris Bester (Foreshore Architects consortium for the Cape Town International Convention Centre)
 
"DRPRO has added immense value to our office administration, well done on keeping it going and improving it to what it is."
