unique solution for

CAE workflow management
You have a CAE workflow
but have you considered
How efficient is it?

Are you certain that the right data...
go to the right person...
for use with the right tool...
at the right time?
Can you tell who is doing
what and how?
Can you monitor work progress?
Are your CAE resources
really exploited?
How well do your Suppliers fit in it?
...and wouldnt you like to improve it

after all?

unique solution for CAE workflow management

Addressing the problem of contemporary CAE community to integrate data, processes and resources,
BETA CAE Systems S.A. brings forth a new solution for driving high quality and efficient virtual product
development procedures. This new software tool for Simulation, Process, Data & Resources Management
(SPDRM) provides a simple and intuitive way to capture, deploy, manage and improve CAE process workflows
by integrating the resources, the tools and the data associated with these. Reflecting a deep understanding of
the demands of simulation and its role in the enterprise, it couples with the enterprise PDM system and integrates
CAE into higher level business processes by delivering CAE tasks and associated data to analysts, engineers,
designers, suppliers and managers.
Data and workflow management
Using SPDRMs process editor the user can define simple actions,
organize them into sub-processes, define their dependencies and
associate these with the existing resources (human or other). SPDRM
tool delegates the process actions to the resources based on
quantifiable criteria such as availability, efficiency, history, current
workload or other rules & metrics. SPDRM automatically informs
workflow actors about their assignments, communicates the correct
data among actions and monitors their progress, giving a clear
visualization of the workflow status. Furthermore, ANSA and ETA have
direct access to the SPDRM data repository enabling, among others,
secure authentication, faster response to complex queries and
privilege-based access to a wider spectrum of CAE data.
Scalability in workflow build-up

Starting from individual engineers and moving up to workgroups,
departments and suppliers, all workflow actors can independently
use SPDRM tool to describe just their own piece of work using their
preferred software tools and data formats and then publish it for
integration into a higher level process. In this way the complete
workflow consists of smaller sub-processes, each built by experts and
thus capturing the engineering knowledge and expertise in every
particular field.
Workflow improvement
Once the complete workflow is built, SPDRM run-time process
visualization and monitoring tools provide valuable information about
workflow's current state, display which actions are completed, which
are currently running (and with which data, by which resource, to
what extend etc) and which actions are still pending. They allow realtime intervention so that the user can alter the process at execution
time in order to bypass an unforeseen stoppage or give a workaround
to an action that is taking too much time to complete. Furthermore,
process profiling tools reflect in a graphical form the interdependency of process actions against the course of time. With these
tools in hand, engineers and managers can identify workflow bottlenecks, investigate parallelization of actions and also investigate ways
to reduce the total duration of the workflow.
