Frequently Asked Questions

Are you an Architect?

We’re not architects, but we have over 20 years’ experience working in the architecture & interior design industry. We’ve spent that time keeping up to date on the latest developments in CAD productivity and standards, all while keeping current with the world of office hardware and software. Think of us as a CAD Manager with a whole lot of IT skills. Or an IT Manager with a whole lot of CAD skills.

How many clients do you have?

It’s complicated.  A better question might be “how many clients have you had?” ACAD is a brand new business and is still developing a client roster.  As Dustin Cucinotta was the founder of a mid sized computer company, Dustin developed a extensive client portfolio before selling the company to his protégé in 2010.  ACAD currently has key clients that are active clients, meaning we’re available to give you our full attention any time you have a question or problem – it’s like having an exclusive private consultant without their exclusive fees!
