Engineering workflow standardization & tailored training
From workflow assessment to standardized engineering practices and practical team training.
A structured engagement for engineering teams that want consistent CAD and engineering practices. The current workflow is assessed, standards are proposed and agreed with your process owners, and your team is trained on material prepared for your environment.
Who it is for
- Engineering and design departments working with CAD
- Teams onboarding new engineers or harmonizing work between groups or sites
- Engineering managers and process owners preparing standards or automation
Common problems
- Each engineer models, names and documents differently
- Standards exist on paper but are not applied consistently
- New team members learn by trial and error
- Generic courses do not reflect your own data, templates and rules
- Automation is hard to introduce because the underlying workflow is not standardized
The engagement in six stages
- Stage 01
Initial consultation & workflow assessment
- Discussion of goals, constraints and the current situation
- Review of representative workflows, templates and standards
- Identification of recurring problems and improvement potential
Result: Engineering Workflow Assessment Summary
- Stage 02
Process optimization & standardization
- AS-IS and TO-BE description of the selected workflows
- Proposals such as process maps, SOPs, work instructions, CAD methodology guidelines and checklists
- Review and approval by your process owners: CADOVIX recommends, your organization decides
Result: Standardization documents approved by your process owners
- Stage 03
Training strategy & agreement
- Target groups, learning objectives and prerequisites
- Formats, duration and location
- Agreement on the curriculum before any material is produced
Result: Customized Training Plan and Curriculum
- Stage 04
Customized training material development
- Exercises and examples based on your agreed standards
- Only synthetic data, or data you provide or explicitly authorize
- Material treated as confidential and kept under version control
Result: Client-Specific Training Package
- Stage 05
Training delivery & practical workshops
- Instructor-led sessions, remote or on site
- Hands-on CAD exercises on representative tasks
- Competency checks against the agreed learning objectives
Result: Delivered sessions and exercise results
- Stage 06
Knowledge transfer & continuous improvement
- Handover of material and standards to your internal owners
- Review of feedback and open questions
- Recommendations for next improvement steps, including possible automation
Result: Knowledge transfer summary and recommendations
What it covers
- Assessment of current CAD and engineering workflows
- Process optimization and standardization proposals (AS-IS / TO-BE)
- Customized training plan, curriculum and material
- Instructor-led training and practical workshops
- Knowledge transfer to your internal owners
Typical deliverables
- Engineering Workflow Assessment Summary
- Agreed standards such as process maps, SOPs, work instructions and checklists
- Customized Training Plan and Curriculum
- Client-Specific Training Package
- Knowledge transfer summary and recommendations
Formats
- Remote sessions
- On-site training

How it can be commissioned
- The complete engagement, from assessment to knowledge transfer
- Individual stages, for example only the workflow assessment or only tailored training
- Scope, duration and format agreed in a written proposal before work begins
How automation complements training
Standardized workflows are the basis for reliable automation. Where the assessment shows repetitive, rule-based tasks, CAD automation or data validation can take over the routine work, and training makes sure your team understands and maintains both the standards and the tools.
Engineering & process automationImportant notes
- No accredited or certified training: no certificates of an accreditation body are issued
- No permanent support and no guaranteed results are included
- Example topic: structured part design in CATIA V5 according to company standards. Topics and their suitability are evaluated per project
- Client training packages remain confidential and are never published on this website or on video platforms
