A better way to deliver ADAC

Every infrastructure project eventually reaches the same critical point: handover.

The drawings may be finished, but the asset information needed for ADAC is often still scattered across CAD files, spreadsheets, documents and email conversations. Surveyors, engineers, consultants and developers each hold part of the picture, and someone must bring it all together before Council can use it.

ADACX creates one connected environment for that process.

Everyone involved can contribute the information they are responsible for, work from the same project record and prepare a complete, traceable handover package from the drawings through to validated ADAC XML.

No passing files from person to person.
No uncertainty about which information is current.
No waiting until the end of the project to discover what is missing.

From data creation to final handover

ADACX Projects
Give developers and project teams one place to coordinate contributors, manage project information and assemble the complete handover package.

  • Create projects and ADAC documents, and invite your team. Viewers are free and take no licence.
  • Import a LandXML survey or a DXF and create assets straight from the drawing, with their geometry.
  • Import existing ADAC XML. ADAC 5 files are upgraded to ADAC 6.0.0 as they are read, and anything the upgrade had to set is flagged for review.
  • Run the full ADAC 6.0.0 check, fix what it lists, and download validated ADAC XML, or an ADAC 5.0.1 copy for councils still on ADAC 5.
  • Submit to your council through ADACX, and upload a corrected file when they ask for one.

ADACX CAD
Work on ADAC asset data directly from BricsCAD and AutoCAD, with your drawing linked to the project.

  • A plugin for BricsCAD V26.2 or later and AutoCAD 2025 or later. The ADACX panel opens your ADAC document beside the drawing.
  • Capture an asset’s geometry by picking it in CAD, and draw the document’s assets back into your drawing on their ADAC layers.
  • Select a linked entity in CAD to open its asset.

ADACX Council
Give councils one place to receive submissions, review them and keep a clear record of every handover.

  • Each submission is checked against ADAC 6.0.0 before it reaches you.
  • Assign a reviewer, add comments, and accept, reject or request a correction. Corrections arrive as numbered revisions.
  • Download any submission as ADAC 6.0.0, or as an ADAC 5.0.1 copy for older systems.
  • Invite officers who only need to read submissions as free Viewers.

Short help videos walk through each step, from a new project to an exported file.

ADAC defines the standard. ADACX makes it operational.

This is an initial release

ADACX is new, and we’re releasing it early so it can be shaped by the people who use it. Please expect:

  • Some bugs. We fix reported problems quickly.
  • Some missing features. Tell us what your workflow needs and we’ll prioritise it.
  • Changes as we go. Screens and wording will improve with your feedback.

Your projects and data are kept as we release updates.

Tell us what you find

Every page in ADACX has a Report a problem link. Use it for anything that doesn’t work, doesn’t make sense, or is missing. It sends us the page you were on, so you only need to describe what happened.

Built from more than ten years of ADAC experience

Since the fully rebuilt release from ADAC V3 to V4, ADACX has grown from more than a decade of working with ADAC data and seeing the practical difficulties faced by the people expected to produce it.

The technology for creating an XML file is only part of the answer. Successful asset handover requires coordination between every organisation contributing to the project, and a reliable way for the receiving council to manage the result.

ADACX now provides that missing connection.
