Simple, Powerful Document Management

Adept is a comprehensive, out-of-the-box data and document management system that solves the problems of organizations that need to find, manage, track and share engineering and business documents of all types between local or remote teams. An all-inclusive solution, Adept integrates with leading CAD/business applications and supports multiple SQL databases for the greatest flexibility and scalability.

For small and medium-sized businesses, Adept provides a complete organizational data management solution; for larger corporations considering a PLM/BIM or other enterprise-wide collaborative initiative, Adept is a proven first step to ensure that data throughout the design and engineering process is accurate, controlled and managed.

Companies using Adept are better able to manage their critical electronic assets for design and engineering and related departments throughout the organization regardless of geographic location. By providing a central repository for all company knowledge and information, Adept helps designers, managers and other decision makers access the most current information they need to work most effectively.

Realize Immediate Benefits from Adept

  • Adept automatically extracts attributes, xrefs, and properties from AutoCAD, Autodesk Inventor, and SolidWorks files and "learns" about the relationships between drawing, xref, assembly, and part files. Adept also manages valuable where-used and composed-of information.
  • Adept facilitates collaboration between departments and remote design teams, ensuring access to the latest revision and streamlining engineering change processes.
  • Adept's built-in Viewer displays, prints and redlines more than 300 file formats, including SolidWorks, Autodesk 2D/3D and Microsoft Office files.
  • Unlike other inter-departmental or high-end enterprise solutions, Adept is simple to implement, use, and maintain in a workgroup environment, between engineering and non-engineering departments, or across the entire organization.
  • Adept's unique vaulting technology provides document security without file encryption, and gives cross-geographic users the power of a central database with remote document vaults.

Reduce Costs and Improve Efficiency

Adept helps reduce costs by providing access to information 24/7 from any location within an organization. It also eliminated costly mistakes and duplications by ensuring that only the final revision of a file is distributed to customers, contractors, or the shop floor. Its built-in 2D/3D viewer lets team members and non-engineering departments view, redline, compare and print documents, without the need to purchase additional software licenses. And most notably, Adept's automated importation of legacy data dramatically reduces the cost, time and impact of implementing document management within the organization.

Streamline Design and Business Processes

Adept eliminates costly mistakes in production or construction with its built-in, automated workflow procedures. Adept ensures that documents and related data get routed to the right person at the right time. It provides an up-to-date status on all documents-from design to revision through final release-so all team members can collaborate more effectively.

Leverage Data for Decision Support

With Adept, all current and legacy documents are searchable and accessible within a single database of information--whether users are working locally on a LAN, remotely on a WAN, or across the Internet. Adept serves as a single point of control for any type of PC document, including drawings, ECN's, specifications, raster images and Bill of Materials. As a result decision makers have access to critical data within seconds.

Achieve Industry Quality Standards

Adept enables companies to achieve and maintain ISO, TQM, QS, FDA and other certifications that give them preferred status with suppliers and customers. Its automated document tracking and built-in auditing processes help companies maintain standard certifications without costly, tedious clerical work.

Integrate with Enterprise-Wide Business Systems

Adept's superior integration with today's most popular 2D/ 3D CAD and Microsoft Office software ideally suits the special needs of work-in-progress engineering departments. Using Adept's API and other standard programming languages, Adept has successfully integrated with enterprise-wide document management systems, MRP, ERP, Inventory Control and Geographical Information Systems to provide critical engineering information throughout the organization.
