Backyard Discovery, a manufacturer of outdoor living and recreational products, was struggling to manage growing volumes of engineering drawings, product documentation, and business information. Finding critical files could take 10 to 15 minutes, slowing collaboration and creating inefficiencies across teams responsible for bringing new products to market.
In this video, Tim Goodwin, CADD Manager at Backyard Discovery, explains how M-Files helped create a single source of truth for product information. By giving teams faster access to drawings and documents, M-Files improved collaboration, streamlined information management, and supported significant growth in product development. Backyard Discovery also shares how it plans to leverage AI capabilities within M-Files to further enhance information discovery and productivity.
