Smarter BiW Engineering: Combining Data and Physics for Automated Cost and Feasibility

In today’s fast-paced vehicle development cycles, BiW teams are under constant pressure to deliver reliable cost and feasibility estimates early – often with incomplete data, siloed tools, and heavy manual effort. Traditional approaches struggle to scale as vehicle architecture, materials, and regulations become more complex.

In this session, we will introduce and demonstrate a fully automated, collaborative BiW engineering solution that leverages knowledge engineering and physics-based calculations to rapidly deliver reliable material consumption and feasibility estimates for the entire Body-in-White.

In this webinar, we will cover:

• How to rapidly estimate material consumption and feasibility for the full BiW automatically
• How data-driven knowledge engineering can automate BiW cost and feasibility analysis
• How physics-based calculations improve accuracy compared to rule-of-thumb methods
• How collaborative workflows reduce rework between engineering, costing, and manufacturing
• How the solution is applied in a real-world BiW scenario through a live demonstration

Who should join:

BiW & Body Structure Engineers, Cost Engineering & Manufacturing Engineering Teams, Vehicle Architecture & Concept Engineering Leads, Engineering Managers & Technical Decision Makers.
