Session Overview
As multi-disciplined infrastructure projects continue to increase in size and complexity, involving various designers from different backgrounds, there is a need for a streamlined process to produce a consistent delivery. Our challenge at SMEC was to produce a scalable non-authoring solution (within the secondary Common Data Environment) that was undisruptive and efficient. Our answer is The Federation Project Workflow. This presentation describes The Federation Project Workflow, with a breakdown of its components, how it fits into the bigger picture and the outlay of the benefits.
