The Genesis
25 years of service to the
Construction Industry
Founded in 1983, GTS has roots going back to the very earliest
days of construction computing at Loughborough University. From
day one, its mission was to bring cost-effective computing to
wider and wider sections of the Construction Engineering market.
To achieve this aim, it made the bold decision to address only
the fledgling micro-computer market - systems many other vendors
considered to be 'toys'.
Since that time it has progressively
built its business, pushing back
the boundaries of computing in the rapidly evolving PC arena.
It now has customers in nearly 50 countries worldwide. |
The Mission
"To offer our customers the best possible computing solutions
with choice, impartial advice, professionalism, reliability, cost-effectiveness
and total on-going support"
Unlike many specialist vendors, GTS CADBUILD believes that
customer choice is the single most important purchasing criterion.
Customer's needs vary and even the most computer literate person
can find the software market a minefield. GTS CADBUILD
works with independent authors and software development companies
to bring together a coherent range of products, each developed
to meet specific needs. Continuing customer feedback ensures that
product development is customer led in addition to meeting the
demands of the latest technology.
