MBE / MBD Workshop: Enabling Your Digital Enterprise with Strategic Parts Management

Two-day immersive technical training course focused on re-using 3D CAD models from design to manufacture

Jennifer Herron, principal of Action Engineering, will lead a two-day immersive technical training course April 26-27, 2016 pertinent to the digital enterprises of mechanical and systems engineers in the Aerospace, Defense, Automotive, Medical, and other Product Development industries.

Workshop: Enabling Your Digital Enterprise

Online Registration: CLOSED

This workshop will be a face-to-face, interactive education in re-using 3D CAD models from design to manufacture. The workshop will be hosted by CADENAS PARTsolutions in the great Los Angeles metro area.

Attendees will learn what, why, and how Model-Based Definition (MBD) and Model-Based Engineering (MBE) will optimize your business processes and enable your digital enterprise. Our style is to educate you fast and simply while explaining model-based philosophy, commercial and government standards that address model-based issues, and cover available technology with the goal of normalizing MBE/MBD expectations for all your organization’s stakeholders. Day 1 focuses on business processes, rather than a particular CAD technology. Day 2 exposes all the necessary pieces of the digital enterprise puzzle and presents capabilities and maturity your organization needs to achieve MBE.

Topics (half-day each):

• MBE Overview
• Intro to MBD and 3D CAD models
• MBE Implementation Techniques
• Digital Enterprise Business Planning Guidance (Half-Day)
