Assuming that what you are buying is that which is referred to here - https://wiki.bentleypublishers.com/display/ebahndesktop/Minimum+System+Requirements- I would say you are taking a risk. While it does mention IE6 is supported and there are mechanisms to run IE6 on Linux, who knows what other ActiveX controls or other operating or file system dependencies exist. Their FAQ explicitly states Macs aren't supported - so it is unlikely Linux will be. That doesn't say it won't work of course - just unsupported.
Maybe you can convince the manufacturer to ship a content-cutdown CD for you to test it out with?
