KKM SOFT has worked very closely with

Autodesk to develop, enhance and integrate its Engineer to Order

(ETO) service platform, iConfigure, with Autodesk Inventor.



This external rules-based configurator,
enables designers and manufacturers to reduce the time of their

design-to-sale process by up to 50 percent. To cut cycle time, KKM

SOFT created a set of tools and libraries built on existing Autodesk

technologies including; Autodesk Inventor, Autodesk Inventor

Automation, and iLogic which speed mass customization efforts of

manufacturers.



iConfigure enables manufacturers to
more easily create and maintain robust part configurations, assembly

configurations and drawings on the industry's leading digital

prototyping platform Autodesk Inventor. Designers, sales managers and

the executive teams can track and make informed decisions, deliver

accurate quotes faster, and reduce rework-insuring their products are

delivered on time.



Ramasamy, Director, KKM SOFT, said, “As
a mechanical design solutions and ETO Company, we felt that there was

a need for an external rule-based configurator that can automate 70

percent of the standard designs, that exist in the product design

portfolio of any mass customization manufacturing company. With

Autodesk Digital Prototyping and the Inventor Platform our customers

now can innovate and deliver projects more efficiently and rapidly.”



“Though most of our deliverables with
iConfigure is a framework of processes and services based on customer

input and feedback, we can quickly transform to add to current and

Autodesk's future ETO initiatives like Inventor Automation and

iLogic technology which is included in Autodesk Inventor Professional

2010. We will continue to closely look at Autodesk's strategy in

providing digital prototyping and sustainability solutions to our

shared customers; and adhere to VAR and Autodesk customer acquisition

and service objectives”, says Kirubakaran, Chief Architect, KKM

Solution.



"We are proud to be working
closely with an industry leader like KKM SOFT," said Jim Quanci,

Director, Autodesk Developer Network. Quanci further added,

“Together with our partners, Autodesk is committed to developing

solutions that help customers design, visualize and simulate their

ideas, and can solve business and design challenges for competitive

advantage. Partners like KKM SOFT are central to achieving this

goal."



KKM SOFT also announced that it has
been chosen as a preferred industry partner for Autodesk Inventor for

the territory of India by Autodesk. This co-operation is believed to

reduce the manufacturing development time by 50 percent.
