Are your engineers still burning DVDs to share files? Losing track of which design version is current? Struggling to demonstrate compliance during audits?

You're not alone. Most defense contractors are using SOLIDWORKS tools that weren't designed for secure, air-gapped environments - creating daily frustrations and compliance headaches.

This self-assessment helps defense engineering organizations evaluate their current data governance maturity across the critical areas highlighted in our recent eGuide: security protocols, version control, data accessibility, and institutional knowledge preservation.

Assessment Purpose:

• Benchmark your current engineering data management practices

• Identify specific areas requiring improvement

• Prioritize initiatives for maximum impact

• Build business case for data governance investments

Time Required: 15-20 minutes

Best Completed By: Engineering managers, program managers, or IT directors with oversight of engineering data systems.

Scoring Instructions:

• Rate each statement from 1-5 based on how accurately it describes your organization

• Be honest in your assessment - this is for your strategic planning benefit

• Consider your organization's overall practices, not best-case scenarios

Rating Scale:

• 5 = Strongly Agree - This describes our organization very well

• 4 = Mostly Agree - This describes us in most situations

• 3 = Somewhat Agree - This describes us in some situations

• 2 = Mostly Disagree - This rarely describes our organization

• 1 = Strongly Disagree - This does not describe our organization at all
