Part design is the principal source of communicating design intent to manufacturing and inspection. The design data is often communicated through CAD systems. Modern analytics tools and artificial intelligence integration into manufacturing has significantly advanced machine recognition of design specification and manufacturing constraints. This paper is aimed at the collaboration among multiple vendors across supply chains to enable efficient order procurement. To this end, the paper discusses the development of a simple framework for extracting the dimensional data from part design and storing them for enhancing machine readability of the part design at multiple levels of manufacturing.
