Accurate Harness Costing… in Minutes
White Paper
ABSTRACT
The ultimate goal of wire harness product engineering is to ensure that harnesses can be manufactured at a competitive and well-understood cost. This paper examines the challenges of achieving that goal. It discusses the three prevailing architectures for costing solutions—automated to varying degrees—contrasting their accuracy and efficiency, and offers perspectives on considerations such as MCAD integration, PDM interoperability, and more.
