Abstract
Within the context of increasing cost pressure in companies with highly complex products, cost information is needed in the early construction stages to offer market-driven and cost-covering products. The discrepancy between the information required and available is to be dissolved by a knowledge-based project-related calculation. With a calculation model developed for cost estimation of complex products, calculation-relevant information from parametrically-associative 3D models is linked to processing of production planning and operational data. In connection with cost objectives determined earlier, it is thus possible to economically assess 3D models in the CAD and design-changing measures in the sense of "Design to Cost".
