From Drafting to Data Management

Document and data management for the design process are key requirements in addition to geometry editing features. G4 is designed to work in large team-based design environments where thousands of models and drawings are routine. G4 offers as standard a complete solution with its versatile archive/database management of projects, part/assembly models, BOMs, and libraries. Vertex G4 can be integrated with the
comprehesive Vertex PDM product data management system. This facilitates complete product lifetime control via the internet/intranet of all documents, archives, product structures, access rights, etc.

Lighter G4 versions are also available for members of the team who do not require full functionality. These workers remain completely up-to-date and, depending on their program version, can redpencil drawings,for example. G4 also interfaces with all common CAD systems, allowing effective distributed design work even when contractor and subcontractor use different systems.
