Capability implementation lifecycle
From assessment to operation
D2M structures capability work around advisory review, design inputs, digital asset control, manufacturing workflow and handover requirements.
Phase 01
Strategy
Agnostic Consultancy
Independent advisory to select technologies, partners, and operating models around application requirements, evidence, and implementation constraints.
Executive Education
Executive education helps leadership teams assess where additive manufacturing may create value, what evidence is needed, and what operating model is required before capital or program decisions are made.
Phase 02
Design
Product Design
Product design support applies DfAM principles only where they fit the application. D2M reviews function, material route, manufacturability, inspection, and production economics before design changes are recommended.
Design Optimization (DfAM)
DfAM support reviews component geometry, material route, manufacturability, documentation, and performance requirements before additive manufacturing is selected.
Phase 03
Digitization
Reverse Engineering
Reverse engineering converts physical parts into editable CAD data for review, documentation, and possible production. D2M defines tolerances, material assumptions, inspection needs, and approval steps before the file is used.
Digital Asset Creation
Digital asset creation converts physical parts, legacy drawings, and new concepts into controlled CAD data for additive manufacturing review. D2M defines the model, material assumptions, documentation, and production route before the asset is used.
Digital Inventory
Digital inventory support reviews parts to review, file control, access model, documentation, production route, and ownership requirements before on-demand workflows are defined.
Phase 04
Production
Digital Manufacturing
Digital manufacturing support defines the workflow, data model, production route, quality checks, operator training, and handover requirements around the selected application.
