DOD Paradigm Shift to a Model Based Enterprise 

Global Product Data Interoperability Summit | 2012 

• Eliminate 2D Drawings throughout the DOD & Supply Chain 

• 3D Technical Data Packages 

• 3D Animated Work Instructions 

• 3D Inspection Documents 

• 3D RFP/RFQ 

This will reduce DOD Engr. & procurement costs 27% 

This will reduce supplier costs by 8% 

DOD Teeth… new 

MIL-STD-31000 REV A Dec 2012 

• Eliminate Dependency on Proprietary CAD/PLM Formats 

• Deploy complete Product Definition within 3D PDF and 3D HTML TDPs 

• Deploy complete Manufacturing Best Practices 

• Free to Deploy (Adobe Reader & FREE HTML5 Browsers) 

This will reduce scrap and rework costs by 19% 

Will increase supplier response to DOD by 50% 





Why Eliminate 2D Drawings The MBEnterprise 


• Reduce costs to Engineer: 

Creating 3D GD&T and +/- tolerances is Faster 

• Eliminate costs to maintain: 

3D GD&T changes with the model 

• Eliminate ambiguities (in the drawing): 

ASME Y14.41 Visual Response (associativity) 

• Eliminate scrap from misinterpretation: 

Clearly communicate design intent 

Up to 30% of Engineering costs related to 2D Drawings 





Why Eliminate Dependency on Proprietary CAD/PLM 


• Army & their Primes mostly… 

• Air Force & their Primes mostly… 

• Navy & their Primes mostly… 

• Defense Sub-suppliers mostly… 

Pro-E + Windchill 

NX + Teamcenter 

CATIA + Enovia 

SolidWorks & Inventor 

• To get quickest turn around on parts…DLA (DOD Procurement) 

had to align suppliers around CAD Native formats. 

• This reduced effective supply channel by 67% 

• If DOD could effectively provision parts with any supplier 

(regardless of CAD format) 

• Increases supply channel by 67%, which decrease cost….and 

• Accurate MBE data increases supplier responsiveness by 50%

Why it works #1…uses native CAD vendors APIs 


Uses Native CAD APIs for High Quality MBD Transformation 

Anark has develop native 3D + MBD CAD Adaptors 

From 

-Native Pro/E + MBD to 3D PDF capability (for the Army) 

-Native UG/NX + MBD to 3D PDF capability (for the Air Force) 

-Native SolidWorks + MBD to 3D PDF capability (for DLA Supply Channel) 

-Native CATIA + FTA to 3D PDF capability (for the Navy…Q1 2013) 

To 

-Native 3D PDF 

-Native HTML5 

Enables: Perfect 3D CAD MBD to 3D MBE transformation… 





Why it works #2…uses native PLM vendors APIs 


Allows: read/write of native PLM EBOM/MBOM 

Structures, Metadata, Associated files and 3D PDFs 





Why it works #3…uses open standard Templates 


For maximum flexibility 

& 

rapid customization 

3D HTML MBEs 

for internal manufacturing 

3D PDF MBEs 

for external supplier 

Inside the Firewall 

(using html templates) 

Outside the Firewall 

(using 3D PDF templates) 

Allows “fit for purpose” processes without waiting for new 

CAD/PLM vendor’s release….just change the template…
