Data checking, sign-off, and release procedure


The ability of people to accept computerized output as correct, even when it flies in the face of their knowledge and experience should not be underrated. The majority of data checks will be identical to those required for manual designs and should cover the engineering content. The additional information that must be verified for CAD/CAM/CAE output is that which pertains to its format on the system.

Scope
This procedure defines the stages in the sign-off and release of all CAD/CAM/CAE data.

Content
This procedure includes all the steps, in detail, necessary to check the design information. Some of the steps may appear pedantic, but careful checking ensures data quality and helps the system to become accepted throughout the company.

Checklist
  • Model or drawing name
  • Layers
  • Model or drawing structure
