Innovation and collaborative, synchronized program management for new programs
Today's advanced E/E system development solutions need to deliver benefits such as managed supplier data exchange, data re-purposing, and process control. These and additional capabilities such as user, library, and release management are inherent to Capital.

E/E system development requires a close connection with other adjacent domains. Capital provides deep integrations with leading MCAD systems - more than a simple file exchange process, designers are provided with precise control of each attribute of the data as it flows between systems. Companies can specify the ownership of each aspect of the data, for example, wire length is defined by MCAD, wire color is defined by harness designer, and once specified, the electrical/mechanical interface controls all data flows. This allows engineers to work concurrently and without risk of introducing errors caused by accidental modification of data in one system or the other. Capital provides integration with PLM systems via out-of-the-box tools or via web-services customization. These can be used to control the release and design management process from the PLM system as well as establishing links to requirements to provide traceability.
Engineering is a team activity within organizations and also happens across a full supply chain; collaboration is essential. To support this, solutions need to have the ability to collaborate within tools and also exchange data securely. Using Capital, engineers can safely and securely share data with suppliers. To facilitate context-relevant information sharing it's possible to add comments to a design and notes to a drawing out-of-the-box. In addition to core collaborative features, an add-on enables additional enterprise collaboration. Capital provides active notification of comment updates to team members subscribed to a design's comments feed. It also enables development teams to create, monitor, and track checklists, allowing them to stay abreast of things that need to be done to finish, review, or release a design.
Corporations around the world are suffering from the relentless rise of cyber-crime, cyber-espionage, and cyber-terrorism. In addition to severely harming a company's reputation, breaches into their secure systems threaten customers' privacy, safety, and well-being. As a result, companies are taking greater measures to secure their information throughout their supply chains.
