Engineering Design IT Procurement — CMIT Solutions of Dallas

1. What does IT procurement for engineering design include?

End-to-end sourcing of CAD workstations, certified GPUs, peripherals, licenses (Autodesk, SOLIDWORKS, Revit, CATIA, Siemens NX), storage, and networking—plus deployment and warranty tracking.

2. How do you spec CAD/BIM workstations correctly?

We match CPU cores/clock, ECC RAM, NVMe tiers, and pro GPUs (e.g., RTX/Quadro) to model size, simulation needs, and render pipelines to avoid bottlenecks.

3. Can you manage software licensing and renewals?

Yes—subscription tracking, true-up planning, network/floating license servers, and cost optimization across seats and modules.

4. Do you handle PLM/PDM and version control?

We procure and implement PDM/PLM (e.g., SOLIDWORKS PDM, Autodesk Vault), configure check-in/out, lifecycles, and permission models for auditability.

5. What storage and backup do you recommend for large models?

Tiered NVMe/SSD caches to SMB/NFS shares, 10/25G backbone, and immutable backups with point-in-time restore for CAD vaults and project archives.

6. Can you equip labs for simulation and rendering?

Absolutely—GPU render nodes, HPC/VM hosts, licensing for FEA/CFD, and queue managers for distributed rendering or solve jobs.

7. How do you address security and IP protection?

MFA/SSO for design tools, least-privilege PDM roles, DLP for CAD filetypes, encrypted shares/VPN, and supplier access controls.

8. Do you support compliance (ITAR, CMMC, SOC 2)?

Yes—procurement aligned to data residency, export controls, logging, and hardened configs required for regulated engineering projects.

9. What’s included in lifecycle and vendor management?

Standard images, golden builds, driver/firmware baselines, spares strategy, RMA handling, and quarterly vendor scorecards.

10. How do we get started?
