Design Data Management

DesignHub

Solving the Design Data Dilemma

How can manufacturers manage their complex design data, including both MCAD and ECAD files, to streamline design, eliminate wasted time looking for design data, and improve collaboration? Jim Brown will moderate a webinar, From Chaos to Collaboration: Solving the Design Data Dilemma, to hear from Propel and their partners on how they can seamlessly manage…

Time Wasters

Saving Time in CAD Design

Did you know that engineers spend, on average, about a day a week on non-value-added data management tasks? That’s a lot of time spent on design data management that could be spent on driving product innovation and performance. That NVA time has a big business impact as well, including missed design deadlines that can delay…

Non-value-added time in CAD Design

The Game of Avoiding Wasted Time in CAD Design

Our research shows that engineers spend a significant percentage of their time, almost a day a week, on non-value-added data management activities such as finding information, working with the wrong data, recreating data, translating formats, and other common time wasting tasks. These time wasters cause them to miss deadlines, develop products with higher costs, miss…

Design Data Management

Effective Design Data Management and Collaboration

Small engineering teams have many of the same challenges as larger ones, but have fewer resources to address them. How can small design teams manage product development complexity through better collaboration and design data management and the cloud to meet their design targets? Please enjoy the summary* below. For the full research, please visit our sponsor Siemens…
