EPDM_image 3.jpgThe Challenge

Inertia Engineering + Design Inc. (IE+D) is a leading supplier of fast-tracked, streamlined product design and engineering services to the automotive, motor sports, and manufacturing industries. The company needed a tightly integrated 3D development platform, including integrated analysis and PDM capabilities, to facilitate collaboration, the handling of product data, and project management.

The Solution

IE + D chose SolidWorks Professional 3D CAD software, SolidWorks Simulation Professional analysis software, and the SolidWorks Enterprise PDM system because the solution provides a robust modeling environment with fully integrated analysis capabilities within a complete PDM system. By implementing SolidWorks Enterprise PDM on the QuickSider project, IE+D shortened the development cycle by 30 to 40 percent, streamlined project communication and management, reduced the potential for design errors through automated revision control, and accelerated delivery of an industry innovation.

The Results

  • Shortened development cycle by 30 to 40 percent
  • Streamlined project communication and management
  • Reduced potential for design errors through automated revision control
  • Accelerated delivery of an industry innovation
