Fischer and ITI share a long relationship and have worked together on many industry projects to extend and enhance 3D MBD, PMI, model and data quality, the digital thread. Fischer has been leading MBD and MBE workshops since 2008 and GD&T and related training since 2001.

The new MBE practice offers a full suite of services, including training, consulting and staff augmentation, in all areas related to MBD and MBE throughout the enterprise, the supply chain and the product lifecycle. From exploratory workshops and training to assess your organization’s readiness for MBD and MBE, staff development, adoption and implementation strategies, ongoing support, and sustainment, to evolving to the next phase, the MBE practice aims to provide the right skills, guidance and people to help clients understand and optimize digitization opportunities and an implementation strategy, the organization says.

The practice plans to provide oversight and assistance at all levels from the document-based methods of the past to the model-based methods of the future.
