Solution

Friday evening start. Monday morning live.

Your engineering data is scattered across legacy systems, network drives, and that one folder nobody's allowed to touch. We consolidate it all into Autodesk Vault — cleaned, organised, and running — over a weekend.

The real issue isn't migration. It's the mess.

Most companies we work with don't have a migration problem. They have a data problem that's been accumulating for 10 or 15 years.

Files in three different locations. Duplicate drawings nobody can tell apart. Broken references that mean opening one assembly loads the wrong parts. Metadata that was accurate in 2014 and hasn't been touched since.

We don't just move the mess. We fix it first.

The weekend migration

We've refined this across 50+ projects and 900,000+ files.

1

We set up a staging environment

Your data goes in, and we run it through automated analysis — finding duplicates, broken references, corrupt files, and metadata gaps. This happens weeks before the real migration.

2

We clean before we move

Duplicates removed. References repaired. Metadata standardised. By the time we migrate, the data is better than it's ever been.

3

We migrate over a weekend

Friday evening, the old system goes read-only. Saturday and Sunday, the data moves. Monday morning, your team logs into Vault and gets to work.

4

We train your team

Proper training on Vault workflows, search, lifecycle management — so your team gets the most out of the system from day one.

Real results

Boral Australia

700,000 files from SolidWorks EPDM to Vault. Weekend migration. Zero data loss. Zero business disruption.

"It never felt like a client-vendor relationship. It felt as if we were on the same team."
— Chandra Akkiraju, Boral

Origin Energy

200,000+ files from SmartTeam, Objective ECM, and network drives. Three legacy systems consolidated into one Vault across six power plants.

Dept of Transport WA

1.5 million files from Objective ECM. The largest single migration we've done.

Typical investment

ScopeInvestmentTimeline
Small migration (<50,000 files)$10,000 – $20,0001–2 weeks
Medium migration (50,000–200,000 files)$20,000 – $35,0002–3 weeks
Large migration (200,000+ files)$30,000 – $50,000+3–4 weeks

Includes: data analysis, cleaning, migration, Vault configuration, training, and 30 days of support.

The tool behind the process

Over 50+ migrations, we built a tool called Turbo Loader — the engine that handles the heavy lifting. Automated data preparation, duplicate detection, relationship mapping, and bulk upload.

It's the only migration tool that cleans your data before uploading it.

Thinking about Vault?

Whether you're starting from scratch or drowning in legacy data, the first step is a conversation about what you've got and where you want to be.
