If a part contains only sketch geometry or the part will never exist in real life (ex. driver model), name the file MS-XXXXXMSXXXXX-ShortDescription. 

Avoid saving any parts in the 10xxx (i.e. 10000-10999) range in the part and drawing number registry. These part numbers are exclusively for fasteners. 

...

Washer are to be named MS10xxx-TypeWasherSizeNote (i.e. MS10xxx-LockWasherM8GR12, where note is any special notes such as grade of the washer or any additional notes)

Dynamic Components

This is a unique case where a single "component" is modelled as several "sub components" and turned into an assembly to allow the component to be dynamic in our assemblies (i.e. the coilver, which is purchased as a singular part, is modelled as a strut and damper and assembled to allow the suspension assemblies to be dynamic)

Dynamic assemblies should have their own unique part number pulled from the part registry. Components of dynamic assemblies should follow the MSXXXXX-Description standard from above for parts that will never exist in real life.

Solidworks Drawing

Solidworks drawings are to be named DWG-#####-ShortDescription where #### is the drawing number. Drawing numbers are tracked here: MSXII Part and Drawing Numbers. PDF versions of drawing should only be committed to GrabCAD when the drawing is ready for release and should have the same name with a -R## suffix to indicate the revision number.
