I am about to start a large project which is likely to have 1000 + individual items.
I need to get off on the right foot as it would be catastrophic having to change methodology part way through.
How is the best way to manage this drawing package.

Thank you.

That's a lot of individual items for a single project. Well, you need a reliable ERP to take care of all this stuff. Otherwise, you are screwed, and the whole project is gonna be a mess.

Handling a project with so many components, made me realize that the right software can make all the difference. Personally, I ended up using an ERP system that was great for handling large projects, and it saved me from a lot of headaches. It integrated everything into one place, so I didn't have to worry about missing anything or needing to change plans halfway through. I used the Acumatica Manufacturing Edition, which worked out really well for me.

For managing a large project with over 1,000 items, start by clearly defining the project scope and breaking it into smaller phases or groups. Use a project management tool to track progress, establish a consistent naming system for drawings, and create standardized workflows for submitting and reviewing work. Regularly review progress and use version control to manage changes. This approach will help you stay organized and prevent major issues later on.
