Native Creo/Pro-E (.prt / .asm / .drw, incl. versioned .prt.3) and other native CAD are stored & flagged — export STEP from Creo for full analysis. A drawing and a model that share a filename pair into one part automatically.
Equipment Capabilities Reference
This is what the AI reads to judge forge fit and recommend equipment — keep tonnage/energy and max part
weight current. Rows marked "planned" are noted as future investment, not used as today's primary fit.
Import Equipment List from PDF
Upload a PDF (or photo/scan) of your full equipment list and Claude will read it and pull out every press,
hammer, and trim press with whatever specs it lists. You'll get a preview to review and edit before
anything is saved — nothing below is changed until you confirm the replace.

Service Sourcing
In-house vs. outsourced is tracked once per service category, not per drawing — marking one here (or from a
drawing's report) applies to every past and future drawing that calls for that service.

Historical Run Data (ERP Import)
Read-only reference for comparison only — never used as an input to new analyses. Upload your ERP
"where-used" export (.xls/.xlsx) and it's matched against drawings by customer + part number so you can see
actual cut/net weight next to what the AI would have suggested, for jobs you've already run. Each upload
fully replaces the previous import.
