Increase Engineering Capacity & Reduce Labor Costs
Learn the 4 key steps to increase your
engineering capacity with automated
workflow …
Speed Up Your Workflow from Quoting to Final Product Shipment
Transforming Engineering & Manufacturing™
Overview
In today’s competitive global manufacturing marketplace, it is important to
produce products Better, Faster, & Cheaper. That starts with automating your
engineering workflow with the 4 key areas of workflow automation:
1. Automated Quoting
2. Automated Product Configuration
3. Automated Routing Generation
4. Automated CAD Drawing Generation
Reduce / Eliminate Labor Intensive Engineering Workflow Tasks

Automated Product Configuration
Reuse Rather than Re-Create – Quit
Reinventing the Wheel!
“Without the Global Edge – Product Configurator,
we would need to create hundreds of bill of
materials (the list of damper components), which
requires hundreds of engineering and clerical
hours to create and maintain. Orders that once
took up to four hours are now processed within 20
seconds.”
