Turn Engineering PDFs into Actionable Data
Build a Connected, Searchable Digital Thread
Push Engineering Data Where It’s Needed
Engineering documents are full of critical data—but trapped in static, dead-text PDFs. Exiger unlocks that information, turning specifications, materials, and requirements into structured, machine-readable data ready for real use.
- Extract technical data from engineering drawings and specs in seconds, not weeks.
- Capture key elements like materials, tolerances, part numbers, and process requirements.
- Eliminate copy/paste and rekeying by exporting clean, structured data to downstream systems.
- Reduce manual errors and ensure engineers work from accurate, current data.
Free engineering from PDF bottlenecks. Reduce rework, save time, and start projects with data you can trust.

Engineering decisions don’t live in a vacuum. Exiger links drawings, requirements, and references into a traceable, interoperable digital thread that connects design to sourcing, sustainment, and compliance.
- Create digital twins of engineering documents with structured relationships between parts, specs, and standards.
- Link requirements across drawings and revisions for fast impact assessment and version control.
- Ensure engineering and sourcing teams are working from the same data source—no more silos.
- Support change management by instantly surfacing what’s changed, what’s impacted, and who needs to know.
Free engineering from PDF bottlenecks. Reduce rework, save time, and start projects with data you can trust.

Engineering data is only useful if it can move. SWISS makes your technical content interoperable with the tools your teams already use—no custom workarounds, no manual patching.
- Integrate extracted data directly into PLM systems like Windchill, Teamcenter, and 3DX.
- Connect to ERP, compliance, and procurement systems via API to sync data in real time.
- Align engineering, procurement, and compliance workflows around shared, structured information.
- Automatically update linked systems when source documents change—no more version mismatches.
Keep your entire organization aligned with consistent, current engineering data— wherever it’s needed.

Exiger sends valuable engineering data to PLM systems.
Single Source of Truth for Parts Data
Eliminate the Guesswork for Part Selection
Build a Smarter Parts Catalog
Get to a Fair Price in Seconds
Ensure Policy and Regulatory Compliance
Negotiate Smarter, Spend Less
The biggest challenge for parts data? No single source has the whole truth— each entity describes the identical item in different ways, with different descriptions and numbers. Exiger unifies data from multiple authoritative systems to build a complete, accurate picture of every part across your supply base.
- Reconcile conflicting data from government databases, vendor catalogs, and internal systems.
- Centralize parts intelligence to support sourcing, sustainment, and regulatory alignment.
- Keep teams aligned on a single source of truth for item characteristics, lifecycle status, and compliance.
- Respond faster to change—whether it’s REACH, RoHS, or a recall.
Engineering and sourcing decisions are too important to rely on scattered, inconsistent, or outdated data. Exiger centralizes and standardizes part intelligence so teams can make fast, confident, and compliant decisions—every time.
- Search 90M+ NSNs and commercial parts using 400M+ normalized attributes for materials, specs, compliance, and lifecycle status.
- Eliminate hours of research by bringing technical, sourcing, and regulatory data into one searchable view.
- Flag duplicates, obsolescence risks, and noncompliant parts before they cause delays or rework.
- Compare suppliers, pricing, and availability in real time to ensure every selected part is ready to source.
- Support preferred parts and enforce design standards to streamline BOMs and reduce sourcing complexity.
Too many organizations struggle with bloated catalogs, redundant parts, and rising lifecycle costs. Exiger helps you take control by detecting duplicates, enforcing standards, and aligning sourcing with sustainment from day one.
- Identify and eliminate redundant or near-identical parts across BOMs and inventories.
- Enforce Corporate Standard and Preferred Parts Lists with built-in governance tools.
- Monitor part usage and sourcing over time to prevent reintroduction of risky or obsolete items.
- Align engineering, sourcing, and sustainment teams around a clean, controlled parts strategy.
Price analysis takes too long and eats up valuable time. Buyers are expected to validate prices across catalogs, contracts, and quotes—but the data is messy, inconsistent, and everywhere. Price Point brings it all together, so teams can make fast, informed decisions without digging.
- Automatically standardize messy data from suppliers, contracts, and catalogs.
- Search and compare pricing across millions of commercial items in seconds.
- Flag overpriced offers with market-based benchmarks and “should-cost” guidance.
- Generate audit-ready documentation to justify price decisions on the spot.
Compliance is complicated. Buyers are expected to know if every item they purchase meets a growing list of requirements—TAA, REACH, RoHS, AbilityOne, green purchasing, and socio-economic mandates. But that data is often buried, inconsistent, or unavailable when it matters most. Exiger keeps your team ahead of compliance issues by making the rules clear—and the risks visible.
- Instantly check if a product complies with federal, environmental, and sourcing requirements like TAA, REACH, RoHS, and AbilityOne.
- Flag non-compliant SKUs before they’re added to a contract, saving time and avoiding costly rework.
- Get automatic recommendations for compliant alternatives.
- Meet socio-economic and sustainability goals with supplier and product data that’s always up to date.
Without pricing context, even experienced buyers can overpay. Price Point gives you the insights to know what a fair price looks like—and the tools to act on it.
- Benchmark offered prices against competitive data and historical spend.
- Surface the lowest-cost, compliant suppliers already under contract.
- Use real data to support negotiations and justify contract awards.
- Reduce price variability and improve outcomes across the board.

Unlocking the Full Potential of the Digital Thread
Digital transformation in engineering and manufacturing depends on more than connected systems — it requires connected, machine-readable data.
These resources explore the hidden operational and compliance risks caused by static, analog engineering data and outline how Model-Based Product Definition (MBPD) can bridge the gap between engineering, procurement, quality, and supply chain teams. Learn how organizations can eliminate manual bottlenecks, improve lifecycle visibility, and accelerate smarter decision-making across the digital thread.
