Detroit – August 26, 2009 – Tata Technologies, a global leader in Engineering Services Outsourcing (ESO), Enterprise Solutions services, and Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) today announced a seminar series, “Investing in Engineering to Win in a Global Economy with Autodesk® Digital Prototyping.” The series features both live events and Webinar presentations.

“Building and testing physical prototypes is costly and time consuming,” said Kevin Robinson, Tata Technologies Solutions Manager. “Even if you don’t build cars or airplanes, or create physical prototypes of large industrial machinery, the digital prototyping concept is highly relevant to your business. Because of inefficiencies within product development processes today, too much problem solving and iterating happens on the shop floor, not digitally. The shop floor is an expensive and inefficient place for innovation to happen.”

Digital prototyping, Robinson noted, offers significant time and cost savings without any loss of accuracy or quality. Tata Technologies will be presenting an approach to product development called Digital Prototyping, which enables users to iterate, optimize, and validate designs digitally. By digitally prototyping products, manufacturers increase their competitive advantage, by getting to market faster with more innovative designs.
The Tata Technologies series features Autodesk Digital Prototyping solutions.

The Autodesk solution for Digital Prototyping enables users to create a single digital model in Inventor® for use at every stage of production; bridging the gaps that typically exist among conceptual design, engineering, and manufacturing teams.

The live seminars are two hours, including lunch, and feature an overview of Tata Technologies Digital Prototyping capabilities, as well as a demonstration of the Autodesk solutions.

“We’ll talk about what a typical product development process looks like and some of the critical challenges that manufacturers face which can be solved with technology,” Robinson said. “Then, we will turn our attention to how Digital Prototyping can help address these challenges.”

The schedule for Investing in Engineering to Win in a Global Economy with Autodesk Digital Prototyping is:
•        September 15, Lancaster, Penn., live seminar
•        September 18, Webinar – Internet event
•        September 30, Torrance, Calif., live seminar
