I program in LabVIEW most days and have used LabVIEW for around 18 years. I mainly working on embedded systems on our CompactRIO platform for datalogging and control. Working on electrical power quality measurement for smart grid applications…"

Hey Ian,

Labview is my favorite programming software of all time. Haven't used it for about 8 years, but the things that I could do (biosensors world), and the software that it my experiences with it inspired ... wow, good stuff. Are you related at all to LabView?

Quick question --

NI is clearly involved in complicated and drawn out (but hopefully not too long) sales and installations. Specification. Design. Project management. Back and Forth with Partners/Suppliers and Clients. (is this close enough to true?). Are you involved in this, or is it more of an Apps & Sales Engineer's job?

I'm interested in finding out good fits for my company's product -- collaboration software for 3D/non-3D engineering projects. We know there are some more obvious paths, and I'm polling some different industries and applications to see if there is a good solution in place already (and I'm therefore barking up the wrong tree).

What do you find is a typical way to collaborate on engineering projects with so many diverse people involved? I can't imaging it's a sophisticated PLM system, but could believe that an FTP/online storage and a bunch of emails might be providing a solution.

Thanks for your consideration,

Scott
