McLaren Software Releases Document Controller Client for Enterprise Engineer
McLaren Document Controller client is the latest role specific user interface designed to reduce the complexity of managing engineering documents and control processes
Houston, 17th June 2011 McLaren Software,
leaders in Engineering Document Management and Control
applications, have today announced a newly re-engineered Document
Control client focused on providing Document Controllers with all
of the key functions required to complete their day-to-day
tasks.
The McLaren Document Controller client conforms to the Microsoft
Fluent User Interface standard using the now familiar ribbon menus
to provide easy access to all document control and management
tasks. In conjunction with Enterprise EngineerTM a
Document Controller is able to initiate, manage and monitor
document control processes for capital projects, vendor and
engineering deliverables management, transmittals and operations
& maintenance from one user interface. Creation of
review, approval and transmittal packages start with one click of a
button. Reporting, searching and monitoring functionality are all
supported.
The ribbon menu options reflect the various stages of a
document's lifecycle presenting the Document Controller with valid
options reflecting the company and industry processes previously
configured with Enterprise EngineerTM. Context
sensitive help and super tool-tips all contribute to the intuitive
approach for easy adoption and minimal training.
Also included with the McLaren Document Controller client is a
new Content Loader tool designed to support consistent and rule
based bulk importing of documents, drawings and associated
metadata. This same tool automatically validates metadata and
calculates the target file locations.
"The success of any engineering document management and control
system is proportionate to both the speed and breadth of its
adoption. The McLaren Document Controller client is a further
specialist addition to the McLaren range of user interfaces and
application integrations for project managers, engineers, CAD
operators and operations staff." Commented Paul Muir CEO McLaren
