And the system must also be affordable we could very likely use many extra resources to improve conformance, but increasing operation costs is not an option.įor administrators and managers, workflow typically goes like this: CADconform ensures the data integrity of the drawings in your system, helping you get the maximum ROI from your document management investment.ĭo all of the above reliably, affordably and efficiently, as a seamless part of the drafting workflowįor example, a complete CAD Standards system must work with the most commonly used drafting software applications, AutoCAD and MicroStation. Like any other system, a DMS is only as good as the data in it. Protect the data integrity of your document management system (DMS)

Once the drawing is sealed, if it is opened and changed without being re–checked, the seal is "broken", indicating the drawing must be re–checked. CADconform is the only solution offering a tamper-proof electronic seal, assuring 100% conformance to your standards, data integrity and user confidence. Provide a reliable indication of conformance to standardsĪ person looking at a drawing can't realize the benefit of the standards if he or she has no indication or assurance that the drawing does conform to the CAD standards. He or she knows first-hand why and how the elements were drawn, making that drafter the best qualified person to correct the drawing Provide drafters with tools to easily locate and correct non-conformancesĪ drafter invests time and effort to understand the purpose and requirements of a specific drawing. Drafting tools must make it easy for drafters to create drawings using the CAD standards Standards must be part of the production process. Most quality experts agree, you cannot "inspect in" quality after production or manufacturing.

Incorporate standards into drafting tools For example, if someone works on only mechanical drawings, they probably don't need to see the electrical standards. Also, drafters must have access to only those standards they'll actually use. Manage all aspects of CAD standards including: import of existing standards, create new standards, organize them into meaningful sets for your organization, modify and maintain your complete set of standards, and ensure security of your standards so they can only be changed by authorized personnel.Īllow controlled access to standards for all groups needing to use themĪnyone who must use the CAD standards - whether employee or contractors, on site or at remote locations - must have access to them.

A complete CAD Standards system must do all of these things:Ĭreate and manage standards, including security
