Autodesk Vault, as part of the Product Design Suite, helps ensure that Chemring employees and partners can quickly and easily find all the design data they need to make better decisions and work more efficiently.<\/p>\n<p>Chemring estimates it saves days of engineering time being able to find and reuse designs more easily, and weeks of time by not having to manually manage design files and bill of materials.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur people used to spend too much time managing data,\u201d said Kirk Berenger, lead engineer at Chemring. \u201cIt was difficult to track the progress of designs or even to share that data beyond the engineering department with other team members. With Autodesk Product Design Suite, we found an integrated solution to enhance our design and data management processes.\u201d <\/p>\n<p> Autodesk Platinum Partner <a href=\"http:\/\/www.a2ktechnologies.com.au\/\">A2K Technologies<\/a>&#160;was instrumental in helping Chemring come up with a comprehensive solution that combined both design and data management. Vault was ideal since it tightly integrates with Autodesk Product Design Suite tools including <a href=\"http:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/pr-inventor\">Autodesk Inventor<\/a> that allows Chemring to explore and validate ideas digitally.<\/p>\n<p>Vault software also integrates with Microsoft SharePoint \u2014 a key selection criteria for Chemring. This integration allows non-design professionals throughout the organization to use familiar SharePoint workflows to work directly with vaulted design data, building a crucial connection between design teams and the extended business enterprise.<\/p>\n<p>Smart business moves by Chemring \u2014 it\u2019s no wonder the company is a leader in military, aerospace, maritime and security applications.
