This may be due to the reason that, Bentley's Microstation is used as GUI in the PDS, only as a graphical platform, and most of the modules in the PDS are third party S/W. So 'search' for PDS in Bentley's Site may not fetch you result.
It was a rumour that Intergraph is trying to develop their own GUI for their PDS, and stop using Microstation. I don't think they'll be doing it so fast. It is very difficult to ask thousands of PDS users, to switch over to an unknown GUI.

I think this development requires more study.

What you say possibly explains why a search for "PDS" at Bently's site only resulted in a pipe support software.

After all, PDS and PDMS...
