Digital Engineering Benchmark – a structured approach to examining your CAD design process

Does your organization struggle to produce CAD and digital definitions of product? Is the CAD development of product a bottleneck in your process? If the answer is yes, you could benefit from a Digital Engineering Benchmark.

The Digital Engineering Benchmark assessment captures the opinions of senior and knowledgeable personnel in your organization on the current state and future Digital Engineering requirements for your business. In addition, a priority for improvement and an assessment of current effectiveness is recorded. It centers on 17 key Digital Engineering “Pillars” ranging from 3D CAD Standards, through to CAD Extensions. The pillars are listed below:

  1. 3D CAD Standards
  2. Drawing Standards
  3. CAD Templates
  4. 3D Standard Features
  5. Standard Parts Library
  6. Materials Library
  7. Automated Drawing Generation
  8. 3D Master
  9. Automated Designs
  10. Automation Scripts
  11. Digital Mockup
  12. Spatial Analysis
  13. Special CAD Extensions
  14. Design for Manufacturing
  15. CAD Checking Tools
  16. Intellectual Property Protection
  17. Publications

After the 17 pillars have been covered, senior and knowledgeable personnel are also invited to “spend” an assumed benefit in value areas within your business. The areas identified are improving time to market, increasing the portfolio of the company and improving product quality.

Finally, the tool produces a comprehensive report showing the customer’s current state of maturity and a benchmark comparison with the industry.

Participants have found this process to be very useful as it allows them to prioritize their initiatives, gives a high level view of their roadmap to success and provides them with industry benchmark information
