The cloud EDMS built for organizations that can’t afford to get it wrong.
When safety, schedules, and profits depend on the right information.

The engineering system of record for industrial operations.
LAsset-intensive organizations operate complex infrastructure over decades. Every plant modification, every capital project, every maintenance intervention depends on engineering information that’s accurate, current, and connected to the physical asset. When it isn’t — when documents drift out of sync with the plant — the consequences accumulate silently until they can’t be ignored.
Adept Cloud is the engineering system of record that prevents that drift. It governs engineering information continuously across the full asset lifecycle — from design and construction through commissioning, operations, maintenance, and plant modifications — so every phase builds on trusted information from the one before it.
Run on information you can trust.
Maintenance teams do their best work when they can trust what they’re working from. When engineering documentation is current and connected to the physical plant, safety improves, outages are avoided, and costly rework disappears.
Keep the engineering record intact.
Capital projects are where documentation drift most often begins. Adept Cloud keeps the engineering record intact regardless of how your organization collaborates with contractors — so the handover to operations is complete, accurate, and trusted.
Build on engineering data you can trust.
Digital twins, AI, and predictive maintenance require accurate, trusted engineering data to deliver their value. Adept Cloud provides the governed digital thread that connects engineering information across the asset lifecycle — the foundation that makes digital transformation actually work.
Find any document, from anywhere, in seconds.
The average engineering professional spends 30-40% of their time searching for information. Adept Cloud eliminates that waste. Every document your organization has ever created, approved, or received is findable in seconds — by anyone who needs it, from any browser, without a VPN.
- Full-text search across all document content and metadata
- Metadata-based search with custom fields, data cards, and filters tailored to your organization
- FileGuide views for flexible, role-based document navigation — each team sees the structure that makes sense for them
- Saved searches and Favorites for one-click access to the documents you use most
- Share documents via secure Adept URLs or email attachments
- Access from any modern browser — no VPN required
Confidence when the stakes are high.
Don’t leave it to chance when a field engineer needs the right schematic at 3am or a shop floor worker is manufacturing an expensive part. The costs of a version control issue may include worker safety, expensive scrap, reduced margins, and failures that impact the reliability of your assets. Adept Cloud eliminates duplicates and accidental overwrites — so every user always has the current, approved version, and every previous version is preserved with a complete audit trail.
- Check-in / check-out locks documents when in use — preventing simultaneous edits, duplicates, and accidental overwrites
- Major and minor version tracking — save work-in-progress versions during design and formal versions upon approval
- Revision control with auto-increment — revision field linked to drawing title blocks, auto-updated on check-in/out or final approval
- File relationship version management — control whether parent documents reference the latest version of a child or lock to a specific version
- Complete, searchable audit trail for every document action — who accessed it, who changed it, and when
- Watermarks and approval authentication for controlled documents
When your work flows, your business grows.
Manual document review and approval — emails, phone follow-ups, walking the facility with printed sign-off sheets — doesn’t scale, is error-prone, and leaves no audit trail. Adept Cloud puts your document routing and approval processes on rails. Every document follows the right path, every step is tracked, and every decision is permanently recorded.
- Automate simple or complex multi-step approval workflows — from single-reviewer sign-off to multi-stage engineering change processes
- Real-time status visibility — see where any document is in its approval process, who’s next, and what’s remaining
- Email notifications and time-based alerts — reviewers notified when action is needed; stakeholders alerted when a step is running behind
- Every approval captured in a permanent, tamper-proof audit trail — essential for regulatory compliance
- Password-authenticated approval validation for regulated environments — signature and date tracked on the document’s data card
- Active workflow dashboard for real-time visibility across all in-progress workflows
Document control that lives where your engineers work.
Adept Cloud integrates directly into the CAD applications your engineers use every day — so document management happens as part of the design process, not after it. Check in and out without leaving your design environment, keep file relationships intact, and give non-CAD users the visual access they need without requiring expensive licenses.
- AutoCAD integration — check in/out, manage XREFs and file relationships, link drawing attributes to Adept metadata
- AutoCAD Electrical integration — manage electrical design documents with the same control as mechanical drawings
- Autodesk Inventor integration — full PDM capabilities including assembly management and attribute extraction
- SOLIDWORKS integration — coming soon
- MicroStation integration — manage DGN files and reference attachments
- Give non-CAD users visual access to 2D drawings and 3D models — zoom, pan, layer control, cut sections, explode, measure distances
Stunning visualization for everyone — without a CAD license.
No need for expensive CAD licenses, PDF conversion, or managing separate viewers for each file type. Adept Cloud’s integrated visualization platform makes it easy for anyone — from engineers to operations managers to field crews — to view, interact with, mark up, and collaborate on any document type, directly in the browser.
- Native viewing of 2D CAD drawings and 3D models — no CAD license required; full interactive control including layers, cut sections, explode, and mass properties
- 2D Compare — compare two versions of a drawing side by side with differences highlighted automatically
- Multi-user markup on separate layers with different colors — markups saved independently, preserving original file integrity
- Rich markup tools — Cloud, Circle, Arc, Box, Freestyle, Highlight, Leader, Text, Sticky Note, Measurement, and more
- Print and convert to PDF — output to any printer or plotter, batch print, print with headers, footers, redlines, and watermarks
A secure environment for your most valuable information.
Engineering documents represent some of the most sensitive intellectual property your organization has. Adept Cloud protects them with enterprise-grade security — built by a team with a relentless focus on security at every phase of design, development, and support. You get the security, control, and traceability you need to have confidence in the availability, integrity, and confidentiality of your data.
