Abstract

This paper presents the state-of-the-art techniques employed to manage Computer Aided Design (CAD) data at the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) project. It reviews the role of CAD data in relation to written interface specifications and design requirements documents; storage and access control; configuration control; verification activities; and handling of nonconformities. The process of CAD compliance verification and handling nonconformities with a closed-loop system is particularly emphasized as an important strategy for risk mitigation.
