We are Pleased to Welcome Our First Authorized Services Partner in India to the DriveWorks Community!

Hi-Tech Outsourcing Services offer one stop solutions across various service lines and functions that include software, engineering and business processes. Many of their clients are in the US and Europe.

In order to join the DriveWorks Partner Program, Hi-Tech Outsourcing Services had to commit to and complete the DriveWorks Pro Training and Certification. They completed this during our recent visit to India, where members of the DriveWorks team met with their CEO and completed the training with their engineers.

Hi-Tech have been working with one of the leading window and door manufacturers in the US, to help them maximize their use of DriveWorks for design automation, product configuration and quote estimation.

The end result of implementing DriveWorks in this company’s design process is a reduction of engineering time required from 4-5 days to just 10 minutes. With design automation, Hi-Tech’s client has been able to respond to customer enquiries faster and provide accurate quotes. Customers can order their specific doors and frames, just in time and when they need it.

Ketan Panchal, Manager of Industrial Design Services, said that completing the training and certification was useful as it gave them more insight and knowledge about DriveWorks and obtaining the certification shows their capabilities with the different modules available.

DriveWorks at SOLIDWORKS World 2016

We Asked Hi-Tech – What’s Your Favourite DriveWorks Feature and Why?

We love Customised Macro Features! The ability to program individual macros which perform varied and challenging automation tasks and integrate them into existing DriveWorks programs helps to expand programming flexibility to very large levels.

Another favourite of ours is Specification Flow as it helps us to integrate our business model right from receiving the raw material to dispatch/delivery of the finished product. This includes sales, engineering, accounts and shipments.

We also really like the user interface of DriveWorks Administrator. This is one of the most easy, convenient, self-explanatory and engaging tools we’ve seen. We like the ability to create different folders for every variable, customised user forms with the best look and feel, the ability to capture and define model rules and the rule builder tool.

We find these features are very useful for any business user and we truly believe that they distinguish and set DriveWorks apart from all other design automation tools.

On Wednesday 7th December 2016, DriveWorks were a proud sponsor of the SOLIDWORKS Largest User Group Meeting Ever (SLUGME).

This meeting was organised by SOLIDWORKS User Group of Nebraska group leader Todd Blacksher as he wanted to connect and share ideas with friends and colleagues ahead of the annual SOLIDWORKS World event. He teamed up with Central Massachusetts SOLIDWORKS User Group leader Tom Cote to host this event and Heather from the DriveWorks team was there to support them.

“What a great evening for everyone who was involved in this global event! User groups from as far away as Australia dialled in to take part and they all shared the same passion for design and also their commitment to supporting the SOLIDWORKS User Group Community.

Richard Doyle, SOLIDWORKS User Group Manager, tweeted out ahead of the event that there are 50 meetings on the SWUGN Calendar and 31 of them were happening that night at SLUGME.

SOLIDWORKS CEO, Gian Paolo Bassi, attended the meeting and gave welcoming remarks as well as congratulating the user group community on this great accomplishment. I believe that the total number of attendees was close to 740 and they estimate just under 200 pizzas were consumed – that’s a LOT of pizza!

As a proud sponsor of this event, we’d like to send our congratulations to both Todd Blacksher and Tom Cote for hosting a successful meeting!”
