Propel, Onshape and Zero Wait-State Team Up to Offer Integrated PLM and CAD in the Cloud

Integrated Solution Extends Agile Design Beyond Engineering

SANTA CLARA, CALIFORNIA (PRWEB)

Propel today announced new integrated capabilities with Onshape to help everyone involved in new product launches to collaborate, design and update products more easily than ever before. Developed and sold by Zero Wait-State, CloudState for Design, the integrated solution between Propel and Onshape, enables engineers, salespeople, partners, customers and anyone else to simultaneously update 3D CAD models, see how updates would impact their products and customers, and deliver the latest products to their sales channels. With Propel, Zero Wait-State and Onshape, agile design teams can increase customer transparency, improve product quality and accelerate time to revenue.

CloudState for Design will be available in the Onshape App Store in Spring 2017. Propel, Onshape and Zero Wait-State will showcase the integration February 7 - 9 at the Onshape Agile Design Pavilion, Booth 3401 at Pacific Design and Manufacturing 2017 in Anaheim, California.

Key Solution Capabilities

•    Design ideas: Customers, suppliers and partners can submit 3D CAD ideas to a community
      portal, so they can be discussed, voted on and prioritized.

•    Design collaboration: Customers can simultaneously collaborate on designs with sales and
      engineers as part of a sales opportunity.

•    Product and BOM creation: Engineers can create full bills of materials (BOMs) directly    
      from a 3D CAD assembly, including part numbers and product attributes.

•    CAD visualization: Extended team members and executives can view 3D CAD models
      alongside all the product information needed for launch.

•    Customer and product updates: Updates to 3D CAD models can automatically create
      redlines and engineering changes, which can then be routed for approval.

Comments on the News

Ray Hein, CEO at Propel: “PLM and CAD have long been specialized tools for engineers, but Propel and Onshape allows everyone to easily share, update and approve the latest product designs, so they can help their companies embrace digital transformation. Customers, partners, salespeople and engineers can now work closely on 3D CAD designs and then quickly get those designs to the market.”

Darren Henry, VP of Product Marketing at Onshape: “Propel and Zero Wait-State are extending Onshape's Agile Design capabilities into a true customer-focused PLM system. Not only can design teams collaborate and iterate faster during the design process, their customers are now able to easily collaborate on crucial product information during development and after product release.”
