Managing Design Change | SOLIDWORKS PDM Standard

May 14, 2025

In this video, we walk through a typical design change scenario - swapping out a component in an assembly - and show how SOLIDWORKS PDM Standard helps you stay in control. You'll see how file check-out permissions are driven by workflow states, how to quickly search and replace components, and how to maintain traceability through revision control and comments.

We'll also explore how to preview and reference earlier versions of files, track who made specific changes, and compare different versions of the Bill of Materials (BOM). Whether you’re collaborating across teams or reviewing past revisions, this video shows how PDM makes managing design updates efficient and reliable.
