Autodesk Design Review for Manufacturing

Autodesk® Design Review software, the all-digital way to view, mark up and track changes to 2D and 3D CAD designs, helps to dramatically accelerate time-to-market for new products by enabling faster, more accurate manufacturing design review and approval processes.

Get Reviews Done Quicker
Connect directly with customers, suppliers, planners and purchasing professionals sooner to complete product design reviews faster and shorten product development lifecycles.

Track Mark-ups and Annotations
Track stakeholder comments and project status automatically to reduce the loss of information and the time spent on error-prone data re-entry.

Communicate Digital Prototypes to Key Stakeholders Accurately
Even team members who don't have or are unfamiliar with complex CAD software can fully visualise digital prototypes created in Autodesk® Inventor® software and AutoCAD® software based applications, including detailed manufacturing design data such as bill of materials information and animated assembly instructions.

Protect Your Intellectual Property
Protect your intellectual property by sharing manufacturing designs as DWF™ files, which provide small file size, accuracy and fidelity with password protection, encryption and digital rights management.

Publish, Share and View
Access animated assembly instructions directly from the shop floor.

Autodesk Design Review for Architecture, Engineering & Construction

Accelerate architecture, engineering or construction design workflows with Autodesk® Design Review software. The free*, integrated 3D model viewer provides team members who don’t use CAD software with easy access to rich designs. It also reinforces the use of complete design data for building information modelling (BIM).

Accelerate Project Review Cycles
Reduce time from building review and approval cycles significantly, and reduce printing and shipping costs by using Autodesk Design Review to mark up and review designs created with Revit® and AutoCAD® software products.

Show Designs Effectively in Client Presentations
Visualise drawings fully and walk through building models to create presentations that enable clients to experience a project before it is built.  

Document Construction Change Orders
Use the mark-up and status-tracking tools in Autodesk Design Review to track the changes required throughout the construction process.

Publish, Share and View
Conduct virtual walk-throughs of architectural models using the navigation wheel.

Autodesk Design Review for Utilities & Telecommunications

Utilities and telecoms can use Autodesk® Design Review software – the free*, integrated solution for viewing, marking up, measuring and comparing revisions of maps and designs – to accelerate design workflows. Adopting Design Review affords non-CAD users easy access to designs and reinforces the high-quality data use that AutoCAD® Map 3D software and AutoCAD® software deliver.

Communicate Changes
Review and mark up mapping and geospatial data easily, so information can be shared among planners, drafters, engineers, contractors and field maintenance crews, even those unfamiliar with CAD software.

Eliminate Backlogs
Share changes made in the field quickly to expedite revisions and prevent paper backlogs before they happen.

Document Construction Change Orders
Track reviews and their status automatically to reduce the likelihood that information may be lost throughout the review process. Give workers in the field access to the latest map data containing co-ordinate information.
