Best methodology to bring Pro/ENGINEER CAD data on HardDisk to Windchill PLM

Whats the best methodology to bring Pro/ENGINEER CAD data on HardDiskto Windchill PLM? For small organizations with a single homogeneous CAD data source system, Is manual loading of data into Windchill preferable ?

We tend to use the import facility in workspace and go project by project as required. Main reason for this is we get a heads up on any issues with the data such as missing reference files where people have been a bit sloppy shall we say with their copy geom etc. and can then make a decision on how to best resolve those issues. Windchill does a very good job of recognising those links to files you may have deleted ./ not saved originally that Pro/E will quite happily ignore when retreiving data.
