The Design Process Study will be aimed at collecting critical data about the current engineering and design process at a company, mapping the process and creating an effective implementation and migration plan for Solid Modeling, including Design Automation.

SCOPE
The scope of the study will be limited to the engineering and design department and specifically to the optimal utilization of engineering and design-related activities.  The study would include internal customers of engineering such as manufacturing or sales.
