DesignRule are fast becoming industry leaders in Design, Collaberation and Program Management for all ENOVIA and Catia based products within the Automotive Industry.

Automotive suppliers and OEMs face many greater challenges than other industry sectors - the drive to 100% First Time Quality forces companies to take absolute control of their data and processes while at the same time to respond to the year on year requirement for cost down programs.

Design Rule fully understand that addressing these issues requires a holistic approach as the impact of any non-compliance with documentation or processes directly hits the bottom line.

We have built a large customer base of OEM, Supply Chain and Bespoke Automotive Manufactures through our unique approach to understanding the Process Model and aligning our activities to this. Our experience ranges from 10 years of working in almost every aspect of the Automotive design process from OEM Design to Supply Chain delivery. This has given DesignRule the ability to assist all of our customers in chosing the correct DS software for the correct use and to ensure tailored Best Practices to deliver the best performance and value of the software.
