Scheduling periodic design review meetings

Purpose

1.1. Automate scheduling of periodic design review meetings to ensure project compliance, maintain quality standards, and eliminate scheduling conflicts for fabrication engineering teams.
1.2. Enhances collaboration, facilitates automated notifications, and reinforces continuous design validation, reducing manual follow-ups and calendar errors.
1.3. Automates documentation delivery, agenda distribution, and outcome recording to optimize the engineering design and document control lifecycle.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. Recurring calendar intervals (e.g., weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly).
2.2. Detection of new design document updates or milestone completion in document control systems.
2.3. Project phase transitions or delivery of revised fabrication standards.
2.4. Automated triggers from workflow pipelines upon file upload or change in status.
