Other departments need AutoCAD work and we have a guy using it all year who's our first line of contact when we need an electrical drawing, or we do it ourselves, or outsource that too when he's too busy. Right now we have one user seat for AutoCAD electrical, and I haven't used it in two years. I loved it all and thought it could be the greatest design tool we ever got our hands on. The wire by wire build guides, predrilled backplanes, easy wire label exports, everything. I loved how you can import AML files and script terminal blocks associated with IO point types and develop your work flows. They just didn't see the cost/benefit in it since we aren't doing the volume, and we can outsource the panel build for cheaper than we can build it ourselves with in-house electricians. I went down the eplan road and fought hard to get it.

Most of our projects lately haven't required new panels, so we're doing 2 or 3 panels a year for the past few years. We've outsourced our panel building completely, this has been a good decision for us so far because we simply don't build as many lately.
