I completely agree. There are not enough CAD awards. There are a lot of teams that do really good stuff and don't get recognized. A regional CAD award would get a lot more teams competitive about CAD. The Regional level could be peer judged.
I talked to one of the judges last year. The reason they want inventor is that they can see what was done with the CAD. The few teams that have the extra software can use that, but if you want national recognition, do everything in inventor. Everything not made in inventor is against you. He also said that every year they work on inventor they are striving for the same level as other softwares. Also they are changing some stuff this year. Project files are required if i remember right. They will make a file structure for the submission, so they can know where everything is at.
