Streamline Engineering Workflow Management with Adept
Adept is a powerful engineering workflow management solution that connects people, processes, and engineering data. It helps your teams automate tasks, control document flow, and accelerate every stage of the design lifecycle—while reducing risk and rework.
Trusted by the World's Best Companies:
Connect Teams, Tools, and Engineering Workflows
Adept empowers your team with centralized access to CAD files, documents, and metadata—supporting seamless engineering workflow management across projects, departments, and locations.
- Create structured, repeatable workflows
- Automate routing and approvals
- Enable collaboration across functions and geographies
Automate and Accelerate Engineering Processes
Manual processes cost time and introduce errors. Adept automates your engineering workflow management system, helping engineers and reviewers move faster and with greater control.
- Control file check-in/out and versioning
- Define automated review and release workflows
- Ensure the right data reaches the right people
Engineering Information Management Best Practices: Work Smarter, Not Harder
CAD professionals spend 20–30% of their time searching for files. Adept’s document control software for engineers slashes that time by providing fast, accurate access to the correct versions of your documents and drawings—helping you reclaim up to a full day each week.
- Instantly find and reuse engineering designs
- Batch copy and rename project files
- Eliminate unnecessary design recreation
Keep CAD relationships intact & see where-used and composed-of details
If your CAD files have references (i.e. XREFs) or if you use Inventor or SolidWorks, you understand the complexities of managing parent-child relationships. Adept ensures relationships stay intact as files are checked in or out, routed through workflows, moved, or renamed. A tree view displays where-used and composed-of information so you understand the impact of any change. You control if new versions flow automatically to parent files. Support includes AutoCAD XREFs, Microstation references, and Inventor or SolidWorks parts, assemblies, drawings, and configurations.

Leverage CAD metadata without redundant data entry.
Adept bi-directionally links with attributes and properties from AutoCAD, MicroStation, SolidWorks, Inventor, and more.
Data Extraction - Metadata is extracted from CAD title blocks or properties and is populated in Adept so it can be searched, reported on, and referenced.
From Adept to CAD - Authorized users can push data from Adept out to CAD drawings or models in batch mode, without having to open individual CAD files. Save time and eliminate errors from redundant data entry.
Access the power of Adept from within your CAD system.
Adept runs inside AutoCAD, SOLIDWORKS, and Inventor so your CAD professionals can stay in their CAD system. An expandable Task Pane delivers powerful search capabilities, design preview, check in/out, metadata view, where-used and composed-of tree view, and more.

Simplify Engineering Workflow Management
Engineering changes can be driven by customer feedback, compliance, or safety issues. Adept supports formal engineering document control and change release workflows to help you respond faster and more accurately.
Adept automates your formal engineering change and release processes, making it easy to create, plan, review, approve and implement change. You’ll improve collaboration, shorten review cycles, accelerate time to market, and reduce your risk of costly mistakes.
Vault your designs and protect them from unwanted access.
Adept keeps your drawings and models safe from unwanted access. Documents are securely vaulted and you have granular control over document access. Adept maintains a complete audit trail for each document throughout its lifecycle so you know who did what, when. Protect your proprietary design information and the investment it took to create your digital assets.
