Session 3A2: Data-Centric versus Document Centric Work Process and Technology Management

The benefits of data-centric work processes is that they are very efficient in propagating changes and promoting and optimizing concurrent engineering, which can result in significant project schedule compression. The problem is it is difficult to maintain audit trails, revision control, and information necessary for regulatory compliance—areas in which document-centric systems excel. This session will explore the benefits and drawbacks of each of these systems and their workarounds. Discover which system is best for you.
