# Spec-Imaging brings new instruments to market faster

Spec-Imaging builds optical measurement instruments such as the IC-VIS colorimeter, which analyzes turbid liquids without pre-treatment. Every instrument combines optics, mechanics and electronics in many complex components.

- **Industry**: Optical measurement instruments
- **Team**: Hardware and electronics team
- **Outcome**: Faster product introductions

## The challenge

- Each new instrument adds parts, assemblies and electrical drawings that all have to match before anything goes to production.
- Keeping that structure correct by hand slows new product introductions and leaves room for errors that surface late.

## How neo helped

- neo tracks every part of Spec-Imaging's product structure, from single parts to complete assemblies, with revisions and relationships in one place.
- The team keeps its electrical CAD drawings in neo next to the parts they describe, so new products are introduced from one controlled source.

## Results

- **Faster** time to market
- **Full** product structure, parts to assemblies
- **Electrical CAD** drawings in one place
