Our Services
Engineering Workflows Are Still Too Slow. CAD Guardian Fixes That.
Workflow Automation
Massive Drawing + Model Updates
Accelerate engineering delivery by automating the tasks that slow teams the most: cross-sheet updates, model changes, revision steps, iProperty updates, multi-configuration processing, and batch drawing operations.
Key Capabilities:
Batch model updates (dimensions, parameters, iProperties)
Automated drawing regeneration for large assemblies
Auto-applied design rules + engineering standards
Multi-sheet, multi-configuration drawing adjustments
Batch IDW/DWG update operations before release
Outcomes:
Reduce manual edits by 70–90%
Release drawings 5–10× faster
Maintain consistent standards across all files

Vault Lifecycle Automation
Remove repetitive manual steps from Vault workflows. CAD Guardian automates state changes, revision updates, iProperty synchronization, batch processing, and multi-file lifecycle actions—designed for strict audit control.
Key Capabilities:
Auto-generated revisions + iProperty sync
Workflow-based triggers (check-in, promote, release)
Automated compliance checks before releasing
Smart routing to reviewers and approvers
On-prem + hybrid-secure compatibility
Batch job queue processing
Outcomes:
Zero missed steps
Zero inconsistent metadata
Fully traceable Vault histories
Engineering teams save 3–6 hours per day
Save 3–6 hours per engineer per day.
50+ Lifecycle Automations
Engineering Productivity
PDF + DWG Publishing Pipelines
Generate engineering outputs at scale with batch pipelines that create clean PDFs, DWGs, DWFs, and TIFF exports automatically—organized, named, and stored according to your standards.
Key Capabilities:
Batch PDF/DWG/DWF/TIFF generation
Auto-named exports based on rules
Clean sheet formatting + watermarking
Multi-folder publishing workflows
Zero mislabeled documents

Our Process
Our Simple, Smart, and Scalable Process
We unify Inventor → Vault → ERP → Documentation into 1 workflow.
Step 1
Inventor Automation
This step enables the auto-update of models, parameters, and iProperties, allows for mass assembly regeneration, and features configurable rule engines.
Step 2
Vault Automation
This feature streamlines lifecycle transitions, facilitates iProperty sync, ensures automated versioning, and manages Job Processor queue automation.
Step 3
Documentation Automation
This capability connects CAD Guardian directly to your engineering tech stack—Autodesk Inventor, Vault, ERP systems, AI tools, and downstream applications—to automate high-volume PDF/DWG/TIFF/DXF publishing. It enforces precise naming standards, generates project-ready folder structures, and delivers fully standardized documentation packages across every system in your workflow.
Step 4
BOM & ERP Automation
This process automates the transformation and export of BOM data into SQL, ERP, and downstream manufacturing systems. CAD Guardian validates every metadata field, synchronizes CAD properties across Inventor and Vault, standardizes part numbers and descriptions, and ensures a fully governed, error-free flow of engineering data into your operational platforms.
