Information is the backbone of engineering
Modern engineering and manufacturing businesses rely on the exponentially increasing volume of information, which needs to be correct and up to date at all times and readily available.
At the same time, businesses are struggling with aggressive timelines, budget constraints and increased external collaboration requirements while access to business-critical information is broken due to siloed information. This disarray always leads to high IT costs in attempt to manage the information chaos.
Our engineering document management solution is designed to counter this, paving a fast track for the modernization of your engineering and manufacturing business.
Key benefits
Take control of technical documentation
Enable a centralized library of engineering documentation that is constantly up-to-date and valid, making information findable, accessible and shareable — during all phases of the lifecycle.
Expose siloed content and collaborate
Unlock access to information embedded in engineering-specific applications, such as CAD and PLM. Collaborate with your clients and vendors effortlessly and securely under a single platform.
Comply
Facilitate compliance with industry standards, such as ISO standards and fly through audits.
Base features
Content and records management
Ensure seamless flow of technical documentation across processes throughout the full lifecycle: from creation to record declaration, retention and eventual disposal.
Enhanced version and revision management
Manage versions, create and track complex document structures with revision management and bundle master documents and supporting files together.
Workflows
Apply sequences of connected tasks to documents or other items of content and each task can be performed by a person, a group, or automatically.
Security and compliance
Comply with industry standards and regulations and retain a full audit trail of actions.
Mobile
No matter whether you are a field worker or office worker, all relevant information and content is always easily and readily available regardless of location and the device used.
Process automation
Defining and adapting business processes is key to ensuring success. We provide a user-friendly tool suite that makes it easy to model, deploy and update critical business processes.
Engineering features
Engineering data management
Enable secure, enterprise engineering document and drawing management and collaboration foundation that allows you to effectively manage all engineering documentation, including AutoCAD files, across the enterprise. Cut costs and improve efficiency for engineering, design, manufacturing, and construction applications.
Transmittal management
Create document packages linking documents from various locations into a document package. This document package can be transferred to another user and/or moved to another location.
Secure external collaboration
Select engineering documents and folders to be synced with externals, such as subcontractors, to the chosen cloud environment. The functionality enables externals to collaborate securely and easily over business-critical documents. The sync module is technology-neutral and can be used to link and exchange information between multiple repositories.
Annotations and watermarking
Easily annotate with Post-its, text highlights and stamps directly in the document itself, and print with or without annotations. Watermarking ensures that documents being printed, downloaded, or viewed from within the system are identifiable by their stamped metadata at all times.
Mass import and export
Effortlessly export and import large volumes of content, such as documents and drawings, using our Bulk Load Tool.
Integration capabilities
Easily integrate to business applications such as office applications, ERP, PLM and CRM. With our out-of-the-box connectors for Microsoft and Google, as well as SAP, Salesforce and various others, you can avoid lengthy and risky integration projects, ensure rapid implementation and save costs. Our platform includes REST API for simple, easily maintained customization and process automation.
