Design Data Announces Corporate Name Change to SDS/2

Design Data, a leader in 3D steel detailing and Building Information Modeling (BIM) software, announced today that it is changing its corporate name to SDS/2. The name change allows the company to better reflect the reputation and identity of its core SDS/2 product line.

“Our customers have long associated our company with the SDS/2 name, so this is an opportunity for us to reinforce our brand identity within the industry,” said Damon Scaggs, president of SDS/2. “As we push to penetrate new areas — including the concrete industry and additional global markets — being able to rely on the strength of the SDS/2 name will allow us to more quickly make inroads into those segments.”

The new name is effective immediately, and will be implemented across the company's products and services throughout the rest of 2017.
