Maintain multi CAD Applications Integrated Product Development Process
Design in multiple CAD tools to match incoming design data formats Could be several PDM Systems
 CAD diversification to mitigate risks
 Internal efficiencies – Engineers specialize in a specific CAD tool, File-based (non-PDM) solution
reduces the agility of the organization and increase expertise
 Smooth partner and suppliers delivery Leverage Neutral CAD Formats
