Autodesk Drawing & Documentation Automation
Generate drawings, sheets, BOM tables, reports, manuals and submittal packages automatically from AutoCAD, Inventor, Revit, Civil 3D and Fusion models, with consistent standards across every product and project.
Documentation is the output your customers see
Engineering documentation goes far beyond individual drawings. Customers and sites receive general arrangement drawings, part drawings, BOMs, datasheets, installation manuals, submittal packages and as-built sets. Across different Autodesk tools, each type is often produced by hand with its own templates, which costs time and leads to inconsistent documents.
ENGIMANDI builds documentation automation across the Autodesk portfolio. We generate drawings and sheets from models, fill title blocks and revision data, create BOM and parts list tables, compile Word, Excel and PDF documents from design data, and assemble complete document packages with covers, indexes and bookmarks. The same data rules apply regardless of which Autodesk tool created the design.

Documentation automation questions
Can documents combine data from several Autodesk tools?
Yes. For example, Inventor mechanical data and AutoCAD Electrical panel data can feed one package.
Can we keep our Word and Excel templates?
Yes. We fill your existing templates with design data.
Can drawings be fully automatic?
For configured and standard products, often yes. For unique designs, automation creates the base and people finish the details.
Does it work without desktop licences on a server?
For cloud generation, Autodesk Design Automation runs AutoCAD, Revit and Inventor in the cloud.
Can outputs be stored in Vault or ACC?
Yes. Documents are saved to Vault, ACC or shared folders as part of the workflow.
