5 Case Studies
A DISCUS Software Case Study
TECT Corporation, a large non-OEM manufacturer of static and rotating components and assemblies for the aerospace industry, needed a better way to manage electronic drawings and specifications for AS9102 First Article Inspections. The company wanted a solution that could support data integration with a future ERP system and the web, and it evaluated competing tools before choosing DISCUS Software through its integrator, Renaissance Services.
TECT implemented DISCUS Software to electronically balloon TIFF and PDF files and generate AS9102 dimensional reports in Microsoft Excel, with the ballooned drawings retained as PDF documents. The new process streamlined engineering and quality workflows, shortened cycle times from days to hours, and delivered immediate labor savings and cost benefits that reportedly paid for DISCUS the first time it was used.
