DATUM: Digitize your Part Library

DATUM is a web-based CAD configurator platform designed to help manufacturing companies — especially small and medium-sized businesses — publish, manage, and share their component libraries online. It bridges the gap between your product catalogue and your customer’s design environment by enabling real-time part configuration, 3D preview, and multi-format CAD downloads.

DATUM puts enterprise-grade product experience into the hands of MSMEs — without the need to invest millions in custom platforms.

Why DATUM Exists

While large enterprises spend crores building custom CAD configurators, most MSMEs are left behind — working with static catalogues, manual quote processes, and fragmented technical documentation. This results in:

• Longer sales cycles

• Repetitive support tasks

• Missed opportunities at the design stage

• Lack of visibility during the customer’s decision process

DATUM was built to solve this — by providing an affordable, scalable, and easy-to-use alternative.

• Create a centralized digital library of your product catalogue

• Enable real-time CAD downloads across multiple formats

• Maintain full administrative control, with multi-user access levels

• Support your sales team with ready-to-share specs, datasheets, and marketing materials.
