Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatus, computer program code and means are provided for bulk costing using an application server which receives a bulk costing request from a remote user device, the bulk costing request including a list of items to be costed and a set of input variables. A final list of components and assemblies is generated including a scenario for each item to be costed for each combination of input variables. A deep costing analysis is performed of the final list, resulting in an estimated cost for each of the items to be costed for each of the input variables.

Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for identifying manufacturability improvements to a component prior to the design being provided to a manufacturer. In one example, the method may include receiving an image including a geometric design of a component, receiving an identification of a type of manufacturing process for the component from among a plurality of types of manufacturing processes, recognizing a geometric feature of the component from the image based on the type of manufacturing process, determining a modification to one or more of a size, a shape, and a location of the recognized geometric feature for reducing manufacturing complexity, and displaying, via a user interface, a suggestion for modifying the geometric design of the component based on the determined modification of the recognized geometric feature.
