Reshaping Innovation: How Top Performers Use SOLIDWORKS to Stay Ahead

Discover 7 Trends Defining the Future of Product Development

Are you keeping pace with today’s product development challenges? In a rapidly evolving landscape, engineering and manufacturing teams face mounting pressure from supply chain disruptions and workforce shortages, to the integration of cutting-edge technologies like AI and simulation. Staying competitive means adapting faster than ever before.

The new Tech-Clarity eBook, State of Product Development: Seven Trends Shaping Product Innovation, explores how Top Performers are overcoming these challenges and driving success across industries. Based on research from over 230 professionals in design, engineering, and manufacturing, the report highlights what sets leading companies apart and how you can apply their strategies.

What You’ll Learn

1. The top challenges slowing down innovation, and how to overcome them

Discover how manual inefficiencies, disconnected systems, and poor collaboration between engineering and manufacturing impact cost, quality, and delivery, and how integrated product development platforms like SOLIDWORKS help close these gaps.

2. How Top Performers use AI and simulation to accelerate innovation.

Learn how the most successful teams adopt generative AI and early-stage simulation to explore design alternatives, reduce physical prototyping, and make smarter, data-driven decisions.

3. Strategies to align engineering and manufacturing teams.

See how Top Performers are improving communication, leveraging cloud platforms, and strengthening real-time collaboration to reduce costly hand-offs and production delays.

Why It Matters

Top Performers are redefining their product development processes to reduce risk, increase efficiency, and deliver better products faster. They’re:

• 77% more likely to use integrated product development platforms

• Nearly twice as likely to apply AI in design and engineering

• Significantly more proactive in using simulation early to optimise designs

By embracing these best practices, companies are achieving greater agility, lowering costs, and maintaining a competitive edge in an unpredictable market.
