
Over 26 years over Engineering experience
(autodesk)
Over 10 years of SharePoint product
development experience for engineering
One of the few platinum partners worldwide
Cadac Group Americas

Our focus is the owner operator supply chain




Owner Operators
EPC providers
Equipment manufacturers
Our sweetspot is within the following industries



Natural resources (Oil & Gas, Mining)
Process industrie (chemicals)
Often very structured document control processes
Our Technology stack is:
 Autodesk Vault
 Microsoft SharePoint
We help companies with Engineering information
management with a specific focus on capital projects and
Asset lifecycle management for document driven
processes.

Engineering Document Management, The basics
Controlled versus uncontrolled content

Both have relevance for the execution of a project
Processes for storage and security apply for both and are
usually set

Controlled content






usually planned or based on a known business event
Has a set and agreed upon structure
Has a set and agreed upon communication protocol
Has predefined business rules
Uncontrolled content



Often created
“in the heat of the moment”
No predefined business rules
Many unknown formats

Uncontrolled content




Transmittal / submittal
Deliverables, Drawings, Spec sheets, Manuals, PEP
RFI’s
Correspondence
Requisition packages
Point cloud data
Models
Email
Napkin designs
Engineering alternatives
User temporary working files
Job pictures
PST databases
Excel spreadsheets
Engineering document management is not Records management

Legal Hold, disposition policies, passive and active records, etc
Versions and Revision with SharePoint

Versions in SharePoint are triggered by

A change to the object caused by





Metadata changes
Workflow activities
Changes to the file
Check-out -> Check-in
A version in SharePoint is indicated by a numeric number only




1.0
1.1
2.0
Etc
A version in SharePoint only records
the event of change, but has no
consequence to the actual Revision
of the engineering document.
As such SharePoint versioning can not
be used to record Engineering Revisions,
but can be useful to keep track of the
ongoing changes.
Versions and Revision with SharePoint
Revisions are triggered by a business event

Document is reject -> please revise
Document is submitted “For Construction” apply correct revision
Document is changed after formal release, update revision



The revision designation can be a number or alpha character or
combination of both


The revision logic for a document can
potentially change if the status of a
document changes


For internal review and audit: A, B, C, D, E
For external “Issue for Purpose”: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4

How documents need to be revised can
change from 1 project / facility to the next,
depending on the customer demands and
historical use.

Revisions can be superseded, as well as
have multiple revisions of a document
active.

Vault
Scope:
 Storage and indexing of
documents for easy retrieval
 Little or no change
management
 Limited (manual) item security
 Limited audit trail
SharePoint
“Work in Progress”
Not used for high volumes of
transient documents
The common factors that make
these documents “important”:
Long lasting
Release for use is well considered
Goes through approval process
Many revisions during their life
Change management
 High degree of reliability for
security
 Revision control
 Visible , Available , Controlled
reliable audit trail
