We want to see if there's a way to automatically pull completed drawings from the PDM vault once they're checked in, so that you have one less step to go from the part management system to making parts, but we haven't done that yet.

Yeah, we've already implemented PDM fairly successfully. I was more thinking in terms of the system I believe you used to have, where new part numbers were natively assigned in SW. Doing that with drawings would be awesome too.
I agree with what others have said, these types of systems are great if everyone uses them correctly and buys into them. Usually, the easiest way to do this is to make everything is as easy as possible to do correctly.
