The company W J Cadzow was formed in 1985 and was the brainchild of Bill Cadzow. Bills’ vision was to specialise in providing a high quality contract draughting service and design solutions. He first started out using traditional draughting methods (drawing machine, paper, ink pens and rubbers) and then in early 1989 he moved onto computer-aided draughting.
Bill formed a new partnership creating Multitech Draughting Ltd, and in 1989 commenced contract draughting for Queenstown Architect John Blair, producing the tender and construction drawings for the new Commerce Building at the University of Otago.
