7. Market Drivers: Opportunity for Value
Traditional engineering calculation
methods are outdated
Too many inefficient
design/analysis iterations
Aging engineering workforce
As companies globalize,
institutional knowledge
is lost and best practices are
abandoned
Regulatory compliance

8. Spreadsheet Methods Are Pervasive, but Not Ideal for Engineering Calculations
Issues
Live calculation but formulae hard
to read
No “units” management
Auditing difficult
No support for advanced math
calculations
– Calculus
– Differential equations
– Etc….
“Talented engineers are using Excel and
getting serious errors of which they’re simply
not aware. And errors build up more rapidly
than you might expect.”

12. Standardizing on Mathcad Enables Key Benefits
Improves Personal and Process Productivity
Easy to use, automates key tasks, reduces errors
When used in conjunction with Pro/ENGINEER enables predictive
engineering capabilities which reduces time and the number of design
iteration down stream in the process
Improves verification and validation of engineering designs
Captures and preserves critical IP locked within engineering
calculations
Promotes company best practices and IP reuse
Supports compliance to standards

13. Customer Case Study
Situation: Engineers used ad hoc
methods to solve and document
calculations Dr. Glenn Morris
Specialty Lead
Quality was compromised due to formulas hidden Structural Analysis Group
within Excel Management’s Key Objectives:
Hours were wasted performing “idle tasks” • Shorten design cycles
• Improve quality
Errors could not be traced or audited
• Refine analysis processes
Programming solutions lacked flexibility • Create central repository
Conducted cost-justification process to
implement enterprise-wide solution of
Mathcad
Result: Mathcad selected as the
standard environment for performing
and documenting structural calculations
on the Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) project
by prime contractor Lockheed Martin

21. Q&A

22. Mathcad 14.0 Customer Quote and
Technical Back-up Slides

23. Mathcad 14.0 Customer Feedback
"The 2-D graphics improvements in Mathcad 14.0, particularly the
new plotting options, are very important to scientists and engineers
who must produce detailed technical reports. Because I frequently
can use Mathcad plots directly in my documents, without resorting
to a separate plot package, I save on the order of 20% of the time it
would otherwise take to document my results."
"The new symbolics solvers are smarter and more robust than those
in older versions. My own use focuses on fitting simple functions to
experimental data or the results of complex simulations, and in
Mathcad, those fits are easy to set up and accomplish.
In testing the new version, I also benchmarked this
new symbolics capability against equations that only Mathematica
was able to solve before - now Mathcad can solve them. "
"Mathcad makes me many times more productive than I
could be using only more traditional applications and
programming tools."
