1 STEP Tutorial: “ How Industry is Benefiting from STEP” Gerry Graves, PDES, Inc. January 16, 2001 ® PDES, Inc.

2 STEP Success Stories PDES, Inc. Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001

3 PDES, Inc. ® STEP adopted for all F-16 Military Fighter Aircraft production re-bid activities Recent major re-bid of F-16 machined parts: – –Involved about 2300 part numbers and 50 potential suppliers – –STEP provided 95% reduction in printing and reproduction costs and 52% reduction in labor by the prime contractor, not including similar savings by the suppliers Lockheed Martin plans to implement STEP across all new aircraft programs which use CAD (F-22, F-2, T-50, JSF, etc.) and at all sites in the consolidated Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Company STEP is being used in production for streamlined data exchange with suppliers

4 Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001 PDES, Inc. ® Boeing is using STEP on the Commercial Aircraft Programs 777-300 Long Range (with General Electric) and 767X (with Rolls-Royce and the Engine Alliance) for the digital pre-assembly process They are also using STEP to exchange C-17 Military Transport Aircraft configuration management data on a daily basis between their design facilities STEP is being used in production at Boeing today

5 STEP is identified as The Boeing Company Standard for product data exchange. Boeing will only consider purchase of products that comply with STEP. It is Boeing’s intent that our partners and suppliers comply with STEP as a requirement for maintaining business with Boeing. Boeing Position on STEP

6 Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001 PDES, Inc. ® STEP comprises over 25% of IBM's global e-procurement design data exchange

7 Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001 PDES, Inc. ® STEP is currently in production use for the exchange of solid model design data with many external customers including: Allied SignalCaterpillar Atlas CastingU.S. Department of Defense Avondale Industries Lunn Industries Bath Iron Works (BIW)U.S. Navy Labs BF Goodrich Newport News Shipbuilding BoeingNorthrop Grumman Electric Boat uses STEP as their data exchange method of choice

8 Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001 PDES, Inc. ® STEP for Product Data Management (PDM) is enabling collaborative product development On case-by-case basis Ford will continue to use STEP for CAD data exchange Ford is planning to use STEP to harmonize CAD and PDM data exchange within Ford Ford uses STEP as a core component in their application integration architecture

9 Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001 PDES, Inc. ® Currently exchanging geometry data via STEP for the A3XX commercial aircraft between Engine Alliance and Airbus On the Joint Strike Fighter military program Pratt & Whitney is effectively using STEP to communicate geometric engine interface data with program partners (Lockheed Martin, Boeing, and Rolls-Royce) Pratt & Whitney is “STEP-ready” and recommends and encourages the use of STEP for communication of design information with customers Pratt & Whitney is using STEP in aircraft engine production with Boeing

10 Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001 PDES, Inc. ® The Delphi Data Exchange Team has designated STEP as the strategic tool for their data exchange and data sharing vision Unigraphics Solutions (UG) has been designated as a strategic technology for Delphi’s math based and global engineering systems Since many Delphi customers require data in CATIA, SDRC, or Pro/E, production STEP translation occurs daily between: UG CATIA, UG SDRC/I-DEAS, and UG Pro/E STEP is used in production at Delphi to translate Customer Product Data

11 Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001 PDES, Inc. ® Eurofighter Typhoon is a four nation military program implementing STEP for Product Data Management (PDM) Partners include BAE SYSTEMS, Alenia (Italy), and EADS -- European Aeronautic, Defense, and Space (consisting of CASA from Spain and Daimler Chrysler Aerospace from Germany) Airbus Industrie partners are currently developing STEP capability for CAD and PDM data exchange on the A3XX commercial aircraft program Currently implementing STEP on the Eurofighter Typhoon Project

12 Copyright PDES, Inc. 2001 PDES, Inc. ® Currently NASA is exchanging CAD models using STEP between SDRC Ideas, PTC ProEngineer, PTC ComputerVision, Solidworks, and AutoCAD Planned uses of STEP include PDM, electronics design, thermal analysis, systems engineering, structural analysis, and machining NASA’s long term vision is to develop a STEP infrastructure of services supporting end-to-end, interdisciplinary data integration and data reuse The U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has adopted STEP for data exchange
