The challenges of product configuration are amplified when you have to deliver products specific to each customer. These highly complex and engineered-to-order products require new variants of parts and designs with every order. Many companies recognize the need to automate repetitive engineering processes to support their engineer-to-order products, but find homegrown systems costly to develop and maintain.
With engineer-to-order capabilities in Rulestream and Teamcenter®, you can automate product and process rules. With this automation, you can address new requirements quickly and accurately while ensuring that you meet the constraints determined by your organization. You can create bid and manufacturing packages in minutes rather than weeks. Using Rulestream, you can support customer demands for engineer-to-order products while still remaining profitable.

Automated Part Generation
Design automation capabilities enable you to automatically create new part designs based on engineering rules. You can leverage deep, bi-directional integrations with many popular CAD systems. These integrations enable dynamic generation of new assemblies, components, and drawings according to your design rules. By leveraging design automation with automated part generation integrated with the CAD systems you use today, you can focus design efforts on truly unique requirements, and allow the system to automate the rest.
Comprehensive Design Documentation
Design documentation is automatically generated based on your functional product requirements and the knowledge captured within the system. Deep, bi-directional integrations to PLM, Microsoft Office® applications, and CAD systems provide automatic generation of design documentation within the respective software application. Rulestream coordinates this automation, helping you shorten your order processing lead times and provide higher quality, more complete shop-floor deliverables.
Guided Requirements Capture
Streamline the generation of 3D Models, 2D Drawings, and BOMs with guided requirements capture. Whether you are in engineering, sales, manufacturing, or another role, you are guided through documenting functional requirements for each customized product in an easy-to-use environment. Non-expert users can leverage captured requirements to guide the design of customized products, streamlining and automating proposal responses, 3D and 2D data, as well as other output data and processes.
Advanced calculations and functions
Some engineer to order products require complex engineering calculations to support engineering automation. With Rulestream, you can capture those calculations and methods to automatically create complex, highly variable product structures that meet your specific requirements.
