Why Outsource 2D & 3D CAD Drafting?

Most drafting and design work done today is in 2D and 3D formats using computer-aided design (CAD) software. CAD’s accuracy makes it a reliable tool for pre-production product development and the simulation of design functions. Collaboration among teams using CAD software also ensures clear communication throughout the drafting and design process. When you are fortunate enough to have more work than your business can handle, outsourcing additional help from a CAD drafting service is a viable option. Read on to explore the advantages of outsourcing to complete your 2D and 3D CAD projects.

Expertise in Various CAD Drafting Software

Drafting software inevitably experiences version releases and updates. This requires engineers to stay up to date with the current changes. Some projects consist of many different components, which must later be assembled. The process of assembly often results in distorted data and design drafts. The resulting distortions must be corrected by engineers with the skills to edit, archive, assemble, and replicate parts to yield high quality work.

Outsourcing means that you don’t have to scramble to quickly get your permanent staff trained up to meet your project deadlines. You can outsource to a group of engineers who already have the latest knowledge and skills to help you meet your current CAD drafting needs. CAD drafting services employ engineers with a wealth of experience in a wide variety of CAD drafting software and from many different industries. When you outsource your CAD drafting projects, you gain access to the service provider’s entire staff of engineers.

Skills to Integrate CAD Drafting with Other Software

Manufacturing and construction customers are beginning to expect CAD Designers to integrate cost estimation, logical programming APIs, and other features. Even though there are not many engineers with this type of API experience, the work can be outsourced to those in a CAD drafting service who do have API integration experience.

Ability to Uphold Standards and Regulations

Each industry has standards and regulations with which it must comply. CAD Design outsourcing companies are familiar with the local standards and regulations of the industries for which they design. They can ensure that your project complies with any applicable industry standards and local regulations.

Value and Efficiency

Outsourcing to a CAD design company for additional engineers as needed is more cost effective than hiring additional full-time engineers. Permanent employees will need a benefits package, a computer with software, and an office space, to name a few. Used situationally, outsourced engineering experts can serve to relieve some of the pressure on your permanent employees when project deadlines are fast approaching. This will allow both your outsourced CAD engineers and your permanent employees to focus on their specific areas of responsibility on the project, resulting in a higher quality product that’s completed in a shorter timeframe.

Outsourcing companies are usually very clear about project milestones, timelines, and fees. By dividing a larger project into smaller deliverables, communication between you and the outsourced CAD engineers is kept open. This provides regular opportunities for correcting miscommunications and errors earlier, which saves everyone effort, time, and money in the end.

In Summary

When you need additional help to complete your project’s 2D and 3D CAD drafting and design, consider outsourcing. CAD service providers have a keen understanding of various CAD drafting software, API integration, industry standards, local regulations, and the need for value and efficiency. There are skilled engineers waiting and ready to collaborate with you to ensure that your project is done well and on time.
