PDL Solutions
Many engineering projects in the valve and actuator industry encounter unexpected costs, which are estimated to be a staggering 10 to 30% of the total sales revenue. Whilst it has traditionally been believed that all the unexpected costs occur after the order lands, research shows that half of them happen prior to order placement through incorrect specification and pricing, missed components and incorrect interpretation of requirements.
Engineering often gets done twice, firstly to win the work and then again to deliver the work after the actual order lands, with frequent bottlenecks and problems occurring when engineers are required to complete time consuming repetitive tasks - rather than relying on tools which enable them to work efficiently and consistently.
By utilising optimised engineering workflows, it is possible to take engineering off the critical path, and ultimately help to drive the cost of poor quality towards zero.
Our experienced engineers have developed MAXIM: a python-based software platform that will capture your specific expert knowledge to create an optimised engineering workflow based upon a common single source of truth. It provides an accurate and consistent process that will enable your engineers to search for previous designs, review standard libraries of components, materials, engineering calculations and manufacturing data, eliminating manual errors and costly rework whilst significantly improving lead times.
Using MAXIM, our developers have consolidated the engineering processes for valve and actuator clients to optimise and automate the bespoke front-end sizing and costing processes, engineering documentation creation and review, and other back-end engineering processes.
Our clients have realised new efficiencies, providing shorter lead times, lower costs and more compelling bids.
MAXIM is developed by engineers for engineers to simplify, integrate and automate your engineering workflow, enabling you to boost your engineering productivity by at least 50%; drive your cost of poor quality towards zero; and add up to 20% of your annual turnover to your bottom line.
