CADVenture Technology Optimization Program

Program Objective

TOP is the activity of understanding customer technology requirements at an enterprise level.  Rather than viewing your technology assets simply as engineering or manufacturing tools, we look for ways to leverage these assets throughout the enterprise.  The objective of TOP is to increase product revenues, reduce product-related costs, and maximize the value of existing technology investments. 

The Technology Optimization Program helps you make sure that every dollar invested in design and engineering, as well as every resource allocated and every application in development or production meets your business goals.

In these competitive times, companies no longer have the luxury to view tools such as their CAD systems solely as departmental assets.  The data produced by these systems must provide value throughout the organization. Today, companies are trying to lower costs without lowering the quality of product development or manufacturing efficiency.  As a result, the scope and importance of getting more out of existing technology investments is imperative.  

The Focus

TOP has emerged for a specific discipline.  It is designed to focus on business and financial objectives with targets such as:

•  Increases in company revenues by getting products to market faster
•  Increases in company efficiencies by improved collaboration and communication
•  Increases in company sales by differentiating from the competition
•  Increases in the quality of the product while minimizing the costs
•  Decreases in company costs by reducing product recalls, failures and liabilities

Companies look to CADVenture for improvements in the areas of time reduction, quality improvement and business improvement. They rely on CADVenture’s resources to help them improve business decisions, increase reuse of data and parts, provide better visibility of data, improve visibility over the supply chain, improve communication and collaboration between departments, customers and suppliers, increase visibility into manufacturing operations, and increase innovation.  Thus, the Technology Optimization Program was born.
