Do I have to have CAD drawings of my facility spaces in order to use Autodesk FMDesktop?
No. The information can also be entered directly into the FMDesktop database without having any drawings. This option allows companies that don’t have supporting CAD drawings to use FMDesktop effectively. If and when facility drawings become available, the user has the choice of using the entered area or the area derived from the drawing polyline. This provides maximum flexibility and versatility.
