We are going with EDMS from a company called Architype www.archsoft.co.uk they are based locally to us, and very helpful when it comes to support.

We will be trialling this software for 6 months in the Glasgow office before we roll it out nationwide.

We keep every revision, and we keep plt files of every revision.

xxxxx/E or m /(code)001 rev A etc...

The plt's are for record purposes, and they can be converted into pdf or dwf or jpg etc. so is very handy.

The dwg files are kept because we are paraniod about engineers wanting to go back 3 revisions as the client has changed his mind.

Supersed drawinsg are moved into a superseded folder, if we are running out server space we have a rule that we can delet or move onto archive cd old revisions.
