For seventeen years, HP has maintained a close partnership with Autodesk, working side-by-side to provide Autodesk customers with the workstation solutions they need to function at their maximum potential. HP’s dedication to this has earned it a position as Autodesk’s top hardware partner, and HP continues to work hard, every day to earn that position.

How did HP achieve and maintain this long-standing position, and how does it benefit you the customer? HP built a long record of commitment to providing solutions specifically for Autodesk applications, assigning dedicated personnel to test, optimize and support them, and to work with Autodesk to ensure absolute reliability and performance.

In recognition of HP’s commitment to excellence, Autodesk chooses HP workstations to develop its software and test its applications. Autodesk’s keystone products, AutoCAD, Autodesk Inventor, Architectural Studio, Revit and others are built from the ground up on HP workstations, a clear demonstration of Autodesk’s confidence in HP.

To support its partnership with Autodesk and to provide a clear and specialized channel for Autodesk support, HP established the HP Technical Consulting Lab. The Lab’s dedicated engineers test solutions and configurations and work to continually optimize them for Autodesk applications. This is a unique offering among workstation vendors, made possible only by the close ties that have been formed between the two companies.

Through TCL, HP provides the industry’s most extensive testing and certification process, performing thousands of software tests on each of its Intel and AMD based workstations. This ensures that you get the highest reliability and performance with Autodesk applications. And while no amount of testing can anticipate all potential issues, HP goes further to find and fix vulnerabilities than anyone else.

The engineers at the HP Technical Consulting Lab also develop and maintain special, free utilities. They can be found at www.hp.com/go/autodesk. The HP Performance Tuning Framework is the cornerstone of these offerings, providing a downloadable utility that quickly and easily tunes your HP workstation to create a “custom” configuration with the best certified graphics drivers for your unique Autodesk application. The also removes some memory constraints, simplifies upgrades and serves as a platform to extend additional utilities and capabilities.

HP’s relationship applies to the full spectrum of HP products, and it is why HP large format printers work better and faster for Autodesk, and why the HP Compaq Tablet PC is an ideal solution for those who use ink enabled applications.

With HP, highly developed and reliable technology is only part of the benefit. You gain the depth of knowledge and experience that only a long-term commitment to partnership can provide. You gain the trust that you are choosing the company Autodesk chooses to help ensure its success. You gain a partner in excellence. You get more from HP.
