So here's the issue.

One CAD team of just over a dozen supporting a multi disciplinary company that has over 400 employees. 70+ LT licences installed on employees workstations that are not within the CAD team, this historically was to help them draft designs that are then normally passed onto the CAD team to work up in more detail etc. In theory a dozen CAD technicians supporting 400 staff should mean the team will be busy all day every day!

The problem now arises when the workloads of these LT users are a little light they suddenly become CAD technicians and hold onto the CAD work to help stay busy causing the CAD team to be extremely light.

Personally, I think the best fix to stop this happening and to keep the CAD team fully busy would be to remove the CAD LT licences from many users workstations but this would just cause carnage!

Does anyone know of a lighter version of AutoCAD LT that will allow people to maybe do quick modifications and check drawings only? AutoCAD 360 doesn't quite work with it working in the cloud.

How would other managers tackle this issue?

Thanks in advance
