In a global market place, product manufacturers are facing a challenge of disseminating their product know-how to their customers, partners and employees spread across the world. With fast changing products and shortening product life cycles, this challenge becomes much more difficult and critical to achieve. DesignTech has developed a unique solution to address these challenges. DesignTech is a pioneer in introducing and successfully implementing the CBTs, one of the well known applications of Product Knowledge Management, at various recognized government and commercial organizations. CBT implies Computer Based Training Manuals developed using a CAD data. This is a novel concept and very well received by the clients. Computer-Based Training (CBT) is a virtual training format. It guides trainees through the procedure of operating a machine/system thereby making them proficient in handling it. It comes in auto-run CD which can be played in any laptop or desktop and does not even require any special hardware purchase. It uses existing product design data and employs the latest simulation and visualization tools to build a solution which enables parties at diverse locations to see the product working, assembly-disassembly procedures and component identification. A virtual product simulation is thus created which facilitates observation of product operation, and support and maintenance. This is especially very useful for complex product structures where traditional video shooting or photography is not practical.

                It is an audio-visual Computer based training manual developed with the help of CAD models.  Its modular structure helps the trainees to comprehend the step-by-step procedures and/or guidelines to operate a certain machine/system. It is can be made available in various languages. It is cost effective, it captures even the minutest details of the System, and amending the CBT manuals is very easy and can be done whenever required. 3 Dimensional perspective of the system/machine helps the trainees to visualize while they are learning to operate it. Use of animation, flash makes the training more attractive, attention holding and interesting for the trainees. Multitude happy and satisfied customers stand testimony to this user-friendly and novel concept of training and communication.
