Showcasing the power of generative design software to streamline the budgetary proposal process

The Xylem ANZ team worked with Transcend to incorporate ICEAS SBR designs as part of the Transcend Design Generator (TDG). Transcend was able to interface with Xylem’s existing design tools to create a ‘one stop shop’ for budgetary proposals and preliminary design of full scope treatment systems.

Background

Problem

Xylem’s commercial teams were heavily dependent on engineering resources from business units who have their own workflows and priorities – resulting in long response times to customers and variable output quality.

Solution

Xylem ran TDG

The Xylem ANZ team worked with Transcend to incorporate ICEAS SBR designs as part of the Transcend Design Generator (TDG). Transcend was able to interface with Xylem’s existing design tools to create a ‘one stop shop’ for budgetary proposals and preliminary design of full scope treatment systems.

Results

Key Wins

50% reduction in turnaround time for ICEAS tenders (from 3 weeks to 1-2 weeks) using TDG
More flexibility to influence the non-ICEAS parts of the TDG outputs
Streamlined the ICEAS design process and created path for improved portfolio sales
Transcend Design Generator

“Putting together proposals for complex wastewater treatment plants can be cumbersome and take a long time. Transcend’s software, through automation of wastewater treatment designs, can significantly reduce the response times to Xylem’s customers.”
