Systems, methods, apparatus, computer program code and means are provided for bulk costing using an application server which receives a bulk costing request from a remote user device, the bulk costing request including a list of items to be costed and a set of input variables. A final list of components and assemblies is generated including a scenario for each item to be costed for each combination of input variables. A deep costing analysis is performed of the final list, resulting in an estimated cost for each of the items to be costed for each of the input variables.

Systems and methods for bulk component analysis

Provided are systems and methods for identifying manufacturability improvements to a component prior to the design being provided to a manufacturer. In one example, the method may include receiving an image including a geometric design of a component, receiving an identification of a type of manufacturing process for the component from among a plurality of types of manufacturing processes, recognizing a geometric feature of the component from the image based on the type of manufacturing process, determining a modification to one or more of a size, a shape, and a location of the recognized geometric feature for reducing manufacturing complexity, and displaying, via a user interface, a suggestion for modifying the geometric design of the component based on the determined modification of the recognized geometric feature.
