Success Story

Integration of Client Electronic Database Management system (EDMS) files with Forge Viewer.

Integration of Client Electronic Database Management system (EDMS) files with Forge Viewer.

Customer challenge

L&T Construction unit has been using a EDMS for managing engineering drawings and for product data management. In that users are facing difficulties while marking up comments on the engineering drawings with lot of manual intervention. Also they face difficulty in comparing two 2D drawings / 3D Model to find the changes in revisions When coming into marking up of drawings, currently users need to download each and individual drawing from EDMS and take a print out and manually work on the markup to review and update their comments on the drawing file. Due to this difficulties, client consumed a lot of man hours and also manual checking process is tedious and cost consuming. Also in comparison of two drawings, users are comparing drawings in two tabs or two monitors. Comparing virtually will gets lot of errors and time consumption. Many time this process results in lots of human errors which results in rework and cost consuming

Project goals

Rework in the drawings and human errors should drastically reduce and easy to compare the drawing revisions and also should shows the attributes such as Added, Modified and Removed which helps the designers to compare any drawings / Models in much faster and accurate way in the checking process.

Solution

KKMsoft proposed the Autodesk Product Forge Viewer which will eliminate our challenges. Autodesk Forge viewer eliminated the manual work which have to be done during marking up and comparison of engineering drawings. Autodesk Forge viewer directly connects with EDMS and manages the markup and comparison of engineering drawing automatically. This process can be explored in both 2D and 3D methodology. After the mockup testing on test system, the complete solution had been implemented in L&T Construction production system.

Business outcome

Reduced consumption of man hours and also manual checking process avoided, so human errors drastically reduced

Conclusion

The custom solution developed by KKMsoft helps L&T Construction unit to carry out their design activities using the Autodesk product Forge Viewer results that with the help of this tools rework in the drawings and human errors drastically reduced and this tool made it easy to compare the drawing revisions and also it shows the attributes such as Added, Modified and Removed which helps the designers to compare any drawings / Models in much faster and accurate way in the checking process. With a basic training, the users also adapted to a new tool, since most of the features were developed in resemblance to their old EDMS tool.
