PTC: The Need for Design Agility Infographic
A recent global PTC study on design agility found organizations that can make the often inevitable late-stage design changes quickly and easily—without sacrificing existing design intent— are naturally going to perform better than those that can’t respond with agility. The same has been found true for organizations that can rapidly recognize features and patterns in imported models to enable seamless modifications.
The ability to make direct edits, preserve the intelligence of existing models and apply intelligence to dumb models can yield huge time and cost savings, while helping organizations bring products to market faster.
PTC has created this infographic to showcase the results of the survey. Here are the five challenges that are driving the need for greater flexibility in design.
Let us know how design changes, lost teammates, and having to deal with models made by someone else have impacted your performance on specific projects. Whoever sends in the most harrowing horror story will receive an honorable mention on the blog!
The PTC Design Agility infographic brilliantly illustrates the challenges that are faced around late-stage and unanticipated design changes. But, there’s plenty of potential, with recent CAD developments enhancing the potential of design agility. This means more design options can be explored, resulting in better products.
