Common Data Environment (CDE) Workflow
C
oordination describes the requirements and protocols for information exchange among project parties and across collaboration platforms such as authoring software, revision software, and coordination CDE platforms. Below are a list of Common Data Environment (CDE) checklists to perform at information delivery milestone, in accordance with information exchange requirements: 1. Has any project-specific expansion of the standard status codes and revision system been defined? 2. Has a classification system been defined? 3. Has an information container ID codification standard been defined? 4. Does the codification standard define how model renditions/exports are to be given different container names? 5. Have all the potential CDE solutions been reviewed? 6. Have security considerations been considered when

selecting the potential CDE solution(s)? IF many CDE used, have they been implemented in a collaborative manner and workflow? Has any particular testing been done? Is there agreement on how information containers will be transferred between solutions? Has a clear CDE workflow been implemented? Has the project got a clear documented set of standard methods and procedures of how metadata is assigned? Is it working with tables/classification systems? Has it been confirmed what each status code means? Has rules been confirmed? Has it been made clear how each metadata assignment is made in CDE?
