Drawing Register

A Drawing register acts as a central repository for all the incoming drawings in the system. It is very important to segregate the Latest Drawings from superseded drawings. A register of the latest drawings is referred to as the "Master Drawing Register". QDMS is a popular software system used to maintain a master drawing register and automatically archive superseded drawings for reference purposes. It also has a powerful and easy to use transmittal generation system that helps to distribute the latest drawings to consultants and sub-contractors.

Drawing register acts as a central repository for all the incoming drawings in the system. QDMS classifies drawings according to projects and disciplines in the drawing register distribution matrix.
