Milford, OH, February 12, 2018 – International TechneGroup Incorporated (ITI) announces a new webinar, “CAD Consolidation with Proficiency” taking place Wednesday, February 21st.

Every engineering team will face a CAD consolidation project at some point, due to corporate acquisitions, retirement of legacy systems, or improving collaboration across the company or with suppliers. As the industry shifts to MBD, the digital twin, and advanced manufacturing, CAD consolidation can give businesses a strategic advantage.  

ITI helps clients navigate the complexities of conversion and works with engineering and IT teams to ensure their consolidation project is as efficient as possible while moving them closer to achieving their larger engineering initiatives, such as Model Based Enterprise (MBE), migration to a new PLM system, or even positioning their technology to deliver on the Internet of Things (IoT). 

This webinar will provide expert insights about planning and delivering a CAD consolidation project that is efficient and advantageous to the organization for the short and long term.

As ITI EVP of Global Business Development, James Flerlage, points out in his blog Six insights for implementing a successful CAD consolidation project, “CAD consolidation projects are often complex, unstructured, and expensive. Success requires honest expectation-setting and pragmatic leadership. With hundreds of customers and dozens of successful enterprise projects in our portfolio, ITI has PLM and CAD consolidation expertise that leans on a proven, systematic approach for managing risk, setting expectations, and defining success.”
