ADVANCED DESIGN DEFINITION MASTERCLASS

CONSOLIDATING AND AUTOMATING ENGINEERING DRAWINGS USING MICROSOFT VISIO

Designed for Chief Engineers, Engineering Directors, Lead Engineers, and Program Engineering Managers responsible for complex, multi-discipline engineering drawing sets.

Eliminate inconsistent engineering drawings, reduce rework, and improve change control across complex programs with practical, execution-focused training designed for engineering leadership.

Participants will learn how to:

  • Consolidate engineering drawings into controlled, reusable architectures

  • Automate change propagation across dependent drawings

  • Improve design consistency, traceability, and technical baseline integrity

  • Reduce rework, redraw effort, and downstream program risk

  • Support configuration management, reviews, and audits with confidence

REQUEST TRAINING OVERVIEW

Developed from real program experience across complex systems

This training is intended for professionals who:

  • Own or influence technical baselines

  • Are accountable for engineering quality and consistency

  • Manage design change across teams, disciplines, or programs

  • Need scalable drawing practices beyond ad-hoc Visio usage

This training is not intended for:

  • Students or academic coursework

  • Entry-level engineers

  • Basic or introductory Microsoft Visio users

  • One-off diagramming or documentation needs

What the Masterclass Includes:

  • Structured instructional presentations and transcripts

  • Reference engineering drawings demonstrating consolidation and automation

  • Templates, stencils, and reusable visual elements

  • Design definition utilities supporting consistency and accuracy

  • Technical management frameworks for:

    • Decision-making

    • Risk management

    • Reliability analysis

    • Configuration and change control

  • Example files illustrating redlines, revisions, and change propagation

Common Enterprise Problems Addressed:

  • Drawings duplicated across files with no authoritative source

  • Manual redraws after every design change

  • Inconsistent symbols, layouts, and notation between teams

  • High rework during design reviews and audits

  • Weak traceability between design decisions and drawings

How Organizations Use This Training:

  • Standardize engineering drawings across programs

  • Reduce effort maintaining drawings during design changes

  • Improve audit readiness and configuration discipline

  • Enable scalable reuse without full MBSE tool deployment

  • Support onboarding and cross-team consistency

Delivery & Engagement:

  • Designed for individual engineers or internal team rollouts

  • Suitable for organizations managing complex or evolving designs

  • Optional technical briefing for organizational alignment
