How Did You Configure-To-Order (CTO) Before DriveWorks?

“Before we started using DriveWorks every sale needed countless hours of input from specialised technicians to import and modify CAD models and prepare the production drawings. It was time consuming so we needed to find a way to streamline the process.” – Serge Fournier—Design Project Manager.

The Benefits of Using DriveWorks

Our library of CAD models has decreased significantly and thus contributed to lower engineering maintenance time on our CAD database.

Merging our high volume products to DriveWorks helps us to keep our project lead time as low as possible while our staff are used more efficiently in other areas.”
