HOUSTON, TX, Dec 2, 2014 – Cadac Group Houston announced that Edwin Elmendorp, president of Cadac Group Americas, is set to lecture at the upcoming Autodesk University 2014 in Las Vegas, Nevada, which takes place December 2-4, 2014. The lecture was chosen out of the thousands of topics that were submitted, because it focuses on the important issue of document control and engineering data management – a growing and potentially costly pain point for the oil and gas industry.
Autodesk University offers Autodesk software training and networking opportunities year round. Their upcoming conference in Las Vegas is the world’s largest annual gathering for Autodesk software users.
Cadac Group is an industry leader in engineering document management & control. The company’s software, Cadac Organice, is a comprehensive document management & control solution that decreases workflow inefficiencies for a variety of project-driven engineering industries.
Elmendorp has created a class for project managers and document control managers in the oil and gas industry to educate them about the available methods to work collaboratively with Autodesk and Microsoft SharePoint software. Elmendorp said, “During the course, we will examine the challenges and best practices to effectively implement a comprehensive data management solution for capital projects.”
The lecture, “Autodesk Vault Professional and Microsoft SharePoint for Engineering Collaboration,” will be given during the third day of the conference. The lecture addresses best practices for industry professionals in creating and managing their assets throughout a capital project, which refers specifically to any construction, renovation, improvement, fabrication, or customization project where capital costs are greater than or equal to US$25,000. It will also focus on explaining the major differences between document control and engineering data management.
