Abstract: Consulting engineering firms were surveyed to determine their success in managing CADD implementation. Survey results were analyzed, and several findings became apparent. Committed resources are necessary for success. Unsuccessful firms hardly involved people affected by the change to CADD. Unsuccessful firms failed to evaluate alternative systems. Firms that committed more resources were more successful than those that committed less. Successful firms were committed to securing feedback regarding the implementation.
