Migration services

From a single folder structure to a full system replacement, planned, scripted and verified.

Vault Professional to SOLIDWORKS PDM

Migrate from Autodesk Vault Professional to SOLIDWORKS PDM Professional while preserving structure, references and key metadata.

File Explorer to SOLIDWORKS PDM

Bring engineering data from Windows folders, shared drives and unmanaged locations into a managed vault.

Data cleanup and reference repair

Find duplicates, broken references, missing drawings, inconsistent properties, obsolete files and naming issues before or after migration.

Mass rename and renumbering

Rename or renumber large groups of files inside SOLIDWORKS PDM while preserving references and minimizing manual cleanup.

Custom property standardization

Clean, update and standardize custom properties across large sets of SOLIDWORKS files and PDM records.
