  • Patent number: 11935001
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for Computer-Aided Design (CAD) system add-ins configured to receive a CAD file of an assembly drawing, analyze the CAD file to extract part components located within the assembly drawing and add the extracted part components to a part component list of the assembly drawing. The system subsequently filters, based on a set of vendors sourcing the extracted part components, the part component list to identify specific vendors sourcing one or more of the part components or equivalent part components and determines availability of the part components for each of the identified specific vendors. The system subsequently generates, based on the availability of the part components, vendor-specific part component lists for each vendor with the availability, converts the vendor-specific part component lists to purchase orders and communicates the purchase orders to a corresponding one of the vendors.
