Design Collaboration in ENOVIA & Associate Certification

What is Design Collaboration in ENOVIA?

Design Collaboration in ENOVIA allows multiple stakeholders to:

  • Work on the same product definition
  • Share CAD data securely
  • Track design changes and revisions
  • Ensure one single source of truth

Instead of sending files through email or using uncontrolled local folders, ENOVIA manages design data centrally, eliminating confusion, duplication, and design conflicts.

Key Features of ENOVIA Design Collaboration

🔹 Centralized Data Management
All CAD files, drawings, simulations, and documents are stored in one controlled platform. Everyone accesses the latest, approved version of the design.

🔹 Real-Time Collaboration
Designers, reviewers, and managers can collaborate simultaneously—commenting, marking up, and reviewing designs without altering original data.

🔹 Version & Revision Control
ENOVIA automatically tracks versions and revisions, ensuring full traceability of design evolution and preventing accidental overwrites.

🔹 Change Management Workflow
Engineering Change Requests (ECR), Engineering Change Orders (ECO), and approvals are handled systematically, reducing errors and delays.

🔹 Multi-CAD Integration
ENOVIA supports SolidWorks, CATIA, and other CAD tools, allowing cross-functional teams to collaborate seamlessly.

🔹 Role-Based Access & Security
Access is controlled based on roles—designers, reviewers, manufacturers—ensuring data security and compliance.
