-Compatible with
-Complete with
-Clockwise

Presumably you got the plans from someplace online and can’t ask the designer for clarification?

In these days of computer power, CAD Drafters should avoid or at least limit the use of abbreviations. Where using abbreviations or acronyms, reflect the details in a legend, preferably on that drawing or document.
 
C/W shows up often on drawing

retaining screw c/w seal
and your quarter turn latch c/w sealing cover

I would have to say that this means "complete with"

It is a somewhat common abbreviation
