Global Manufacturer Improves Business Process with Autodesk
Amsted Rail, Brenco Division (https://www.amstedrail.com), the world’s leading manufacturer of undercarriage and end-of-railcar components, was using a change management process like many manufacturing companies – heavily driven and managed by engineering, somewhat manual, and sometimes inconsistent based on the content of the change. This placed a heavy burden on the engineering division to ensure changes were fully executed since, like most manufacturing organizations, they were responsible for defining much of the content for the change. An improved process was necessary.
C&D Turns to Synergis for Process Improvement Guidance After Acquisition
For more than 100 years, C&D Technologies, Inc (“C&D”) has been manufacturing and supporting innovative systems for the conversion and storage of electrical power and delivering world-class power solutions for mission-critical industrial applications. Recently, C&D acquired Trojan Battery Company, LLC (“Trojan”), a leading manufacturer of deep-cycle Solar and Motive batteries. With the combination of both companies, it was discovered that they had different ways of handling design, data, and change management, that needed to be streamlined into a single, easy-to-adopt process.
Partnership Allows Manufacturer to Perform at Highest Level
The partnership between Rockland and Synergis began over ten years ago when Rockland needed to consolidate a variety of engineering and drafting platforms into one single package. Rockland Manufacturing was comprised of teammates from various industries and backgrounds, each with their own preferences for CAD and analysis tools. As Rockland grew, their engineering resources became segregated and limited to their abilities in the CAD platform they were trained in. Synergis first partnered with Rockland over ten years ago to upgrade and install Autodesk Inventor and Vault Basic on all engineering computers and included training the entire Rockland engineering team on Autodesk Inventor and Vault best practices. Over the years Synergis has continuously supported Rockland with setup and maintenance of current software, file storage, and training.
