TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I've been tasked with reviewing possibilities for enterprise-wide
document management software in the design-build-operate environment.
Particular emphasis on situations where vector graphics like CAD are
primary components in the design process and their output (files or
blueprints) will be used in production/manufacturing, supplier and
sub-contractor interactions, and customer operation and maintenance of
the product. Example: Electrical Power Plant design, construction,
and operation (including maintenance management and quality assurance
issues).
I've been able to find some possible solutions by accusoft, Inso,
Informative Graphics and a couple of others.
I'd really appreciate feedback from anyone using these or similar
products in their organizations or some leads for people to talk to
who are evaluating these solutions.
