Challenge
According to the customer’s request, SCAND developed a mobile CAD app for a CAD platform which should get the notifications of any changes in product design to keep an eye on the product design stage. The difficulty was to make the app matchable with the platform and let it use the same business logic.
Highlights
- Push notifications
- Enterprise document management system
- 3D models review and approval/rejection
- Status notification of the changes suggested
- Communication
- Annotations adding
Approach
Initially, the customer provided us with the SDK that enabled integration with the CAD platform and partial implementation of the business logic. For our part, we created custom UI/UX app design focusing on its capacity to smoothly handle engineering and construction documentation on mobile.
The design for our mobile CAD app also granted an opportunity to work with 2D/3D models and establish communication between users to let them share info and leave comments in a convenient way.
Description
The SCAND mobile development team has created an agile CAD app for the CAD platform. The app helps in keeping up with the product design process and product documentation.
From the phone or any other gadget, a user could see the changes in the product design process, accept, or reject them. One can also view and comment on the documentation or 3D models of the products with the opportunity to suggest new ideas and provide commentaries. Pictures captured with the help of the gadget/mobile device could be easily shared through the product-related communication provided by this mobile CAD software.
Key Features
- View recent commentaries
- View task checklist
- Social collaboration with the threaded discussion opportunity
- Touch-enabled view for documents, images, 3D models, and drawings
- Redline markup with touch or pen on any file content
- Use pictures, audio, and video from your mobile device in social discussions

Result
The mobile agile CAD software created combined all the necessary functionality to keep up with the product design process or product documentation and stay mobile using the same business logic as the parent CAD platform.
