Why MBD and MBE?
MBD and MBE are used to increase profitability, productivity, quality, throughput, utilization of CAPEX and OPEX, staffing, and decrease time to market, cycle time, complexity, cost, labor, and waste just to name a few.
MBE is a Lean value-based approach to business information and IP.

MBE Strategy

Properly understood, MBE allows you to maximize the value your organization obtains from your critical business information and IP, while decreasing the amount of information your organization creates, the cost of information, the burden and skills it imposes on your staff and HR dept.

Properly implemented, MBE allows us to automate information creation and use, to remove historical information-related baggage that overwhelms your staff and drives significant waste and inefficiency. Most people see these problems as just how it is — they don’t understand there’s a better way.

Most companies start down the path of MBD and MBE only to struggle, flail, stall, and underachieve, missing their ROI targets, and leaving substantial opportunity on the table. Why? They don’t understand the MBD and MBE value proposition and how to develop the strategy, culture, and commitment needed to maximize returns. MBE is treated as a technical topic. Led by low-level technical staff, the MBE team develops technical solutions to technical problems, while we actually need to solve business problems.

If we want to succeed with MBE and obtain real business value from MBD, we need to change how we think about information, how we use information, how we work, our culture, our incentives, and our metrics.

If we don’t, we are wasting time, money, and resources, and decreasing goodwill as people grapple with change that doesn’t add enough value to overcome the emotional, cultural, and actual cost of change.

How Do You Want To Work?

MBD and MBE

While CAD and 3D models are part of MBD and MBE, MBD and MBE are not just about CAD and 3D models.

MBD and MBE are about how you work, about how you create and use information, and how do so in the most efficient manner possible.

MBD and MBE are about obtaining greatest value from your work and your information for the lowest cost.
