CAD Data Management

The primary focus of a mechanical engineer or industrial designer is on creating cool and innovative products – not spending endless hours managing their design files. Yet, CAD Data Management is a vital component to an organization’s success. Unfortunately, many organizations and design teams alike say they suffer from data management challenges – controlling, accessing or sharing design data.

Far too often design teams struggle to find the CAD files they need to do their job. Or, they encounter file conflicts, uncontrolled revisions, file duplication and data loss. Additionally, many companies have problems collaborating because of difficulties sharing files with others. All of these affect your design team’s productivity.

 Not only can CAD data management be frustrating, but it also places your organization’s most valuable asset, your Intellectual Property (IP), at risk.

What if there was a way to implement CAD data management simply and cost efficiently, at the same time reducing your risk?

Well you’re in luck because SPK and Associates has been implementing and optimizing CAD Design tools and PDM/PLM solutions for over 20 years — tools such as SOLIDWORKS, PTC Creo and AutoCAD. In fact, having SPK implement CAD Data Management solutions may be easier than you think.

PLM Managed Services

Opt for our Application Management managed services approach to ensure that your PLM systems run smoothly and efficiently without the need for constant internal oversight.  Our managed services include advancing your system by aligning your processes and procedures inside of the PLM, regular software updates, system maintenance, and real-time monitoring, ensuring that your PLM tools are always aligned with the latest industry standards and your business goals.

Our Recommended Approach to Product Lifecycle Management

PDM and PLM serve as the bedrock for efficient and effective management of product data across diverse industries.  At its core, PDM encompasses MCAD data management, which ensures that all mechanical CAD files are securely stored and easily accessible, alongside robust document and ECAD data management to streamline all engineering processes. This foundational management is critical for maintaining the integrity and accessibility of important design data throughout the product development process, ensuring that teams can collaborate effectively and innovations can proceed without disruptive data mishaps.

On a broader scale, PLM extends beyond simple data management to encompass a holistic approach to the entire lifecycle of a product. This includes intricate part management, comprehensive BOM management, and thorough enterprise change management, all integrated within a modular platform that supports advanced project planning.  For enterprises looking to deepen their PLM capabilities, our services expand into class and reuse, supplier management, and sustainability management, alongside specialized focuses like manufacturing engineering, service engineering, and quality management.  These elements are crucial for organizations aiming to meet rigorous regulatory standards, manage risks efficiently, and ensure reliability and quality in their end products, ultimately fostering a streamlined path from conception to market.
