 "Now we can go from a napkin-drawn concept to a prototype in just 12 weeks - compared to six months before implementing a PLM sytem - and with a far higher degree of accuracy."
Anthony Offredi, Director of Operations
THE CHALLENGE
WaveCrest Laboratories is a leading developer of next-generation electric and hybrid-electric propulsion and drive systems for automotive applications. The company's decision to concentrate on automotive applications exclusively in 2003 increased WaveCrest's PDM and documentation requirements, prompting management to evaluate several PDM systems to find the best solution to the firm's growing data management challenges.
THE SOLUTION
After analysis, the company chose PDMWorks Enterprise software because it is easy to use and implement, handles a variety of data file formats, and will support future growth. By implementing PDMWorks Enterprise software, WaveCrest decreased its product time-to-market by 25 percent, cut its design cycles by 50 percent, improved its accuracy by streamlining the handling of BOMS and ECOs, and satisfied the documentation requirements of its automotive and military contracts.
