Cracks in the System
Cybersecurity threats don’t always kick the door down—sometimes, they slip in through the cracks. This month, we’re spotlighting three subtle but serious security risks that could be undermining your defences right now.
If you use Autodesk Vault in mechanical engineering or manufacturing, you know it’s great for managing design data. But for automation and tailored workflows, it can fall short. Here’s how Sovelia Vault bridges the gap.
Autodesk Vault is a robust and reliable foundation for managing design data. It offers essential tools for version control, file organisation, and collaboration. However, when it comes to automation and customisation, Vault can be limiting—particularly for businesses with complex workflows or evolving operational needs.
Manual Workflows Lead to Inefficiency and Errors
Vault does not provide advanced automation features out of the box. Tasks such as file approvals, data exports, and property updates often require manual input. This slows down processes, increases the risk of errors, and can result in inconsistent or incorrect data being sent to production or procurement.
Customisation Requires Technical Expertise
Tailoring Vault to meet specific project or customer requirements typically involves programming. For many teams, this creates a dependency on developers and limits agility. The standard features may not be sufficient to support unique workflows or business rules.

Sovelia Vault is an add-on that transforms Autodesk Vault into a more powerful and adaptable system. It enables users to automate workflows and configure company-specific rules—without needing programming skills.
Automate Routine Tasks
Sovelia Vault allows you to automate:
Simply define a trigger (such as a file status change) and the corresponding action. This reduces manual input, ensures consistency, and saves time.
Customise to Suit Your Business
Users can configure Sovelia Vault to match their company’s processes and customer requirements. Whether it’s naming conventions, approval flows, or data handling rules, Sovelia Vault adapts to your workflow through intuitive settings.
Integrate Seamlessly with ERP and PLM Systems
Sharing design data with other business-critical systems is essential for operational efficiency. Sovelia Vault simplifies this process with built-in integration tools that require no coding. You can easily transfer drawings, specifications, and Bills of Materials (BOMs), reducing errors and improving communication across departments.

Autodesk Vault is an excellent starting point - Sovelia Vault takes it further.
