Next Design offers a wide range of features to support your design.
Here are introduced such features including various editing, supporting functions for distributed development and quality assurance.
Key Features
Building a Design Environment Tailored to the Site
By defining your company’s design information, design methods, terminology, and deliverables using metamodels and views, you can build a design environment tailored to your specific needs without any programming. With presentation formats—such as diagrams, tables, and documents—tailored to specific purposes, along with intuitive editing operations, you can advance “ digital transformation” while leveraging your existing design processes.
Improving Design Quality
By recording traceability during the design process, you can identify the impact of changes and any design omissions at an early stage. By combining the reuse of design assets with the automated generation of deliverables, you can reduce the workload associated with product deployment and documentation creation while maintaining the consistency of design information.
Leveraging Design Assets Across Teams and Organizations
Through file splitting, diff checks, partial loading, and integration with configuration management tools, teams spanning companies, departments, and locations can collaboratively manage design information according to their respective areas of responsibility. By reusing and revising the organization’s standard design processes and deploying them to individual projects, the organization as a whole can leverage the insights accumulated on the development front lines.
Enhancing the Design Process Through Automation and External Integration
Through integration with DC Agentiqs and Lightning Review, you can streamline the entire workflow—from design support to reviews and issue tracking. By leveraging extensions, NDCLI, and CI/CD, you can automate data integration and validation with external tools, enabling continuous improvement of the design process.
