As product complexity increases, so too does the number of engineers it takes to make that product. Teams are becoming larger with more engineers working on a single project. As the project progresses through the design stages and on to testing and validation, chances are good that many members of your team will at some point end up using the same file part you worked on.<\/P><\/p>\n
It\u2019s important they\u2019re able to find the part quickly and easily. But this is often easier said than done.<\/P><\/p>\n
Without a CAD file management system<\/A> in place, you and your team could waste as much as half your time searching for parts. What\u2019s worse is not having a file management system can lead to lost work, further setting you back as you have to redesign lost parts.<\/P><\/p>\n Avoiding these problems is as simple as implementing a CAD file management system. But where do you start? Barb Schmitz of 3D CAD World outlines 5 Steps to Better CAD File Management<\/A> to help get you started.<\/P> Active Workspace\u2019s powerful search and filtering capabitlies enable you to find what you need faster. You don\u2019t need to understand how the information is stored in order to navigate through search results: Teamcenter automatically generates interactive charts and searchable filters.<\/P><\/p>\n With business becoming increasingly globalized, having a system that keeps you and your team organized and on the same page no matter where in the world they are located is more important than ever.<\/P><\/p>\n Active Workspace can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection, giving you the ease and convenience of having the information with you on mobile devices or tablets wherever you go.<\/P><\/p>\n
