Current Workflow1 Discover and Document Workflow Description: Reuse of existing standard product data to create slightly customized products

Current Workflow Score2 Broken Poor Average Good Innovative Score and Design Efficiency NA Summarize Design and data creation and accuracy Workflow Description: Reuse of existing standard Collaboration and Coordination product data to create slightly customized products Workload sharing and load balancing Simulation and Analysis Data generation, metrics and interpolation Industry Standards Conformance to industry protocols Communication and Delivery Proficiency in production of deliverables Broken: Loss of work and or data Poor: Manual intervention, rework and or recreation of design or data Average: Features and capabilities yield desired result with minimized risks to performance and data Good: Efficient by industry standards Innovative: Best-in-class, incorporating cloud-based solutions and collaborative load balancing

Workflow Summary2 Benefits Risks / Issues Score and Designers can start with standard designs and make minor Use of iPart factories complicates file management due to Summarize changes for custom applications factory/instance relationship. Workflow Description: Reuse of existing standard Most common design elements are pre-defined, allowing Instances cannot be directly modified, so factories must be product data to create slightly customized products for fast changes modified and new instances created Difficult to push changes made for custom jobs back to standard design for easier future use

Review Recommendations3 Observations Recommendations Recommend Proposed workflow eliminates the use of iParts Explore the use of Content Center to manage component and Review families to simplify the custom part creation process Proposed workflow simplifies creation of fabrication Next steps and owners drawings Create Content Center components with relevant dimensions for both fabrication and submittal. Use Use of Content Center provides for easier expansion of Retrieve Dimensions to quickly detail when necessary standard product line Ensure all designers are trained on Content Center management to maximize information reuse Next Steps Owner Resources Gauge staff knowledge of Content Tournesol (Wayne Yankee) Center publishing and use Provide proposal for Content Center Hagerman SE (Forrest Judd) training
