My company is launching a project that involves multiple subconsultants. I am the CAD manager for this project and I would like to use the Sheet Set Manager (SSM) to coordinate our drawing files.
We've been using the SSM for projects that we have worked on alone but never on a project which involves collaboration with companies that are at remote locations. We will be using my company's ftp site to share data. I plan on having our subconsultants post updated cad files weekly.
I'm not planning on being overly ambitious with my implementation of the SSM for this project. I mainly want to utilize it to keep sheet titles and callouts referencing other sheets up to date. (I will use fields in my title blocks and detail callouts that will bring in the appropriate drawing title from the sheet set.) I will also use the SSM for batch plotting.
Has anyone had any experience with a similar situation? Does anyone know of any good source of information on using the SSM across multiple remote locations?
