2. Industry Challenges With the evolving times and large engineering projects taking place across the world with distributed teams, the engineering industry has faced with the challenge of keeping track of their projects timelines and deliverables from their engineering/design teams and sub-contractors/suppliers. An engineering project involves the planning, engineering, procurement, construction and operation of predominantly large-scale buildings, plants, facilities and infrastructure. These projects are complex and regulated, and without proper management they can face huge challenges to meet their commitments in terms of costs to deliver on time and with full compliance to industry practices. Central to the problem is how the teams are exchanging the information. A transmittal is used to transfer the asset’s drawings, specifications, calculations and other information, usually for review, comment, or approval purposes. It is also an official business record, forming the basis for many contractual decisions and results, and even determining liability in some situations. Without a way to control and audit the process of transmittal exchanges, projects can stall and risks can escalate as confusion mounts over who has been sent what version of a document, what has been approved, and how third parties have been involved in the process.

3. Transmittal Manager - Introduction Transmittals Manager provides a fully auditable process to control the electronic distribution of documents and drawings to and from external parties like supplier/sub-contractors. Transmittals Manager makes use of role-based access feature of EMC Documentum Taskspace to give external parties a secure environment in which to receive and submit project documents and drawings. Third parties can download transmittal packages and submit documents through a web browser. Documents and drawings are sent and received to named recipients via electronic packages. Each package includes an automatically generated transmittal coversheet providing transmittal number, instructions and document information. Dynamic reports such as MDR, SMDR and Overdue documents reports enable Document Controllers and Project Managers to track the status of Transmittals and project documents. This helps project teams to manage key milestones associated with the transfer and acceptance of documents and drawings.

6. Transmittal Auto-number & Cover Sheet

7. Internal Distribution Lists • Distribution lists ensure that the right reviewers, approvers and consumers are copied on all relevant document sets.

8. Project Documents Manager and revisions • Standard Project documents structure is easily configurable and repeatable for new projects with in the single system. • Each project has its unique document and transmittal auto-numbering to ensure full compliance to the standard industry practices

9. Drawing Mark-ups and Annotations • Drawing mark-ups and annotation feature helps teams collaborate and share their feedback without the need of printing the large CAD images and helps consolidate the feedback electronically.

10. Bulk Uploading of Documents • Bulk uploading of documents reduces the time & effort taken by the engineering managers and documents controllers and improves the productivity.

11. Document Register Reports • Document registers are easily configured to automatically generated reports based on user configured parameters. • Examples include: Monthly Hot Permit Reports, Master Document Registers, Outstanding Transmittal Reponses

12. Advance Search: Transmittal/Documents • Search Documents, drawings and Transmittal based on various parameters • Search Results are based on access permissions

13. Role based Security & Access

14. Transmittal Manager business benefits • Enhanced collaboration among multiple project teams and external parties: Online and 3rd party access allows diversified teams to exchange and access the information from any place enhancing the collaboration between multiple groups. • Significantly reduced amount of time spent gathering drawings for projects leading to faster project execution: Transmittal manager’s functionality to share the drawing electronically and conduct reviews, mark-ups, versions online helps reduce users time to work on drawings and documents. • Increases productivity with rapid transmittal processing: Online transmittal processing helps document controllers to do their job more efficiently and collect feedback from various teams. • Reduces risk with transparent processes, reporting and auditing: Role-based access ensure transparent processes, wherein reports and auditing features helps track down the movement of documents resulting in increased transparency in the organization. • Eliminate the logistics cost/shipping of engineering documents and drawings: Online system eliminates the needs to sipping the physical copies of documents and need to make multiple copies of documents/drawings resulting in significant cost savings.

15. EMC Documentum business benefits • Beyond Information Silos: ECM system helps integrates departments and other groups that otherwise function within separate information silos.
