CMI Standards Manager is a comprehensive set of CAD standardization tools
that will truly make the organization and deployment of standards within your
office a breeze. Organizations have found that our user interface is so easy to
navigate that training new hires to comply with the firm’s CAD guidelines is as
simple as showing them a menu, toolbars, and optional “production palettes.”
Well-documented CAD standards improve consistency, helping organizations
produce better looking plans that are easier to read, and digital files that are
easier to share. Automating those standards improves project collaboration,
ensures consistency, speeds drawing production, and improves the accuracy
and quality of the plan set. CAD Masters (CMI) Standards Manager software,
now in its 7th release, automates the implementation of CAD standards
putting your standards at your CAD staff's fingertips.
