Makersite and Autodesk's partnership empowers product designers and engineers to innovate more sustainable products at a faster pace by putting deep-tier supply chain and sustainability data directly into their hands, inside the CAD tools they're already using.
Since 80% of an organization's environmental footprint is determined during the product design stage, insight into sustainability metrics during the product development process is crucial – but can make optimizing products more complex. Makersite's solution provides AI-enhanced digital twin models of products and their supply chains, sourcing data from more than 140 material, process, and supplier databases. This brings organizations more clarity into their supply chains and insight into their overall environmental impacts.
"Deepening our partnership with Autodesk will provide more engineers with the powerful data needed to make more sustainable design choices," said Neil D'Souza, CEO and founder of Makersite. "The collaboration also exemplifies our commitment to seamlessly integrate data on production costs, risk, regulatory compliance, and sustainability into existing environments, accelerating development timelines and reducing the reliance on sustainability experts in the process."
"Providing tools to design and make more innovative, sustainable products is an Autodesk core value and central to our strategy," said Stephen Hooper, Autodesk Vice President, Design & Manufacturing Product Development. "Enabling Inventor customers to uncover sustainability insights right in the product they're already using, leveraging Makersite's market-leading supply chain intelligence and material analysis data to do so, is exactly the kind of workflow efficiency we're building into all our tools," said Hooper.
Autodesk will hold its premier annual conference for product designers and manufacturers, Autodesk University, in San Diego October 15-17. Makersite founder and CEO Neil D'Souza will lead an Industry Talk presentation to demonstrate the Inventor plug-in to attendees during the conference.
