Optimizing Triple E's Design & Data Management Process

Optimizing Triple E's Design & Data Management Process

Customer challenge

Cadline was introduced to Triple E because of the work it has carried out with the National Theatre, the Royal Opera House and the Welsh National Opera amongst other projects.


Triple E was therefore keen to engage with Cadline and the two companies met to review Triple E’s design and data management process. The focus was on evaluating how Triple E operates from the beginning of a project through to delivery as well as understanding all their pain points and challenges throughout that process.


Cadline focused on identifying key areas of improvements that could be made to the way designers at Triple E were managing and sharing their project data across internal and extended teams. As part of its review, Cadline captured the time and cost of existing manual effort. In order to quantify the manual effort expended by Triple E in managing its data, Cadline created an online survey which was completed to capture activities and challenges from its existing data management process.

Project goals

In delivering a solution for Triple E, Cadline looked to address all the issues relating to its data management challenges that included automating manual tasks, auto-generating noncad file formats, sharing information, copying and reusing design data, improving change management and to deliver a robust data management environment for both design and associated project files which could be controlled through the business. That, in turn, would help Triple E drive efficiencies across the design process and support a much more inclusive collaborative process with internal and external stakeholders.

Solution

Cadline has now implemented several seats of Autodesk Vault Professional, data management software that connects distributed teams at Triple E. This is enabling the designers to manage their project files and their CAD content robustly. It allows the design team at Triple E to work together efficiently, and it ensures information is captured in one place and manages the release of information downstream to the business.

Triple E is also leveraging Autodesk Vault Office, easy-to-use data management software that enables non-CAD users to access read-only project data, helping them manage and share all project-related data from a central location and become part of the review and approval process.


The use of Autodesk Vault has also helped Triple-E achieve enhanced collaboration through the pandemic and helps when design teams are working in different locations. It ensures that work is efficiently coordinated and all relevant users are aware when other team members are using specific files.

Business outcome

Lucy Edelstein, Managing Director, Triple E, said: “Our design engineering team is now working hard on getting our product archive, including back catalogue and current drawings, into Vault, so they are all there and all updated and we don’t have to reference them individually every time”.


“Ultimately, every single project we do will be stored within Vault including part files drawings, PDFs and any word documents associated with those,” continues Edelstein. “We also use it to generate images to go into its working manual. Anything that needs to get drawn or modeled in the company now goes into Vault”.


We are currently upskilling the rest of the staff in that regard and, with Cadline’s help, getting everyone fully up to speed.  Autodesk Vault is already an integral part of the company and its role is likely to grow still further in the future.”

Conclusion

Triple E has reaped the rewards of a close relationship with Cadline. It has received in-depth, high-quality training from the Autodesk Platinum partner. Knowing that Cadline is available as and when required to answer support calls also delivers enhanced peace of mind.


Lucy Edelstein, Managing Director, Triple E, said: “Working with Cadline has been a rewarding experience. The training was of excellent quality and they have been quick to respond to any queries that we have had. Since working with Cadline and using Vault, Triple E has saved so much time.


“We no longer have to constantly go off and find parts that need to be referenced. Today a drawing that someone is working on can now be accessed by any other person if they have the right
