Autodesk
provides manufacturing-specific products and services for federal
government agencies and their contractors. Autodesk® applications
streamline the design-to-manufacture process of components and
sub-assemblies needed to fulfill and maintain critical systems
equipment. Functional design provides key capabilities to support
knowledge capture, simulation, and engineering.
Areas of Specialization
Weapons & Vehicle Design—Budget
constraints, changing specifications and the constant need to reduce
cycle times are all factors that place enormous pressure on weapons and
vehicle designers. Autodesk helps meet those challenges with products
and services that streamline workflow and generate cost savings while
increasing accuracy and accelerating the entire design process.
Simulation-based Acquisition—With
Autodesk manufacturing products and services, weapons systems can be
designed and developed entirely as digital models, reducing the need
for physical prototypes and allowing testing at sub-component,
component, and system levels. The result is higher-quality product,
more collaborative decision-making throughout the acquisition cycle,
better management of total ownership costs, and more rapid evaluation
of concept designs.
Shipbuilding—Autodesk provides a
complete toolset for the complex design challenges of vessel
manufacturing, including design capability for most on-board features.
With an intuitive environment and the ability to create accurate
drawings that help avoid expensive errors, productivity and design
speed are increased while costs are reduced.
Tele-Maintenance—Security
threats, changing situations, and the time-critical need to restore
systems operability all make remote field maintenance a cost-,
personnel-, and mission-saving asset. Autodesk products and services
allow centrally located technicians to assess maintenance needs of
systems across the globe and provide detailed visual, voice, and text
instructions to field personnel in real time.
