The B2B platforms Conrad and TraceParts make use of synergies

Easier development, planning and design: The Conrad product catalogue is now listed on TraceParts – CAD data download and product procurement at the click of a mouse 

• Cooperation with CAD content platform emphasises clear focus on B2B
• 3D models and 2D drawings of products from well-known manufacturers available
• Alternative access to the Conrad product range on traceparts.com

Professionals in engineering and mechanical engineering looking for CAD data will recognise this name: TraceParts, one of the world’s leading CAD content platforms. Over five million registered members from 1.3 million companies have free access to billions of 2D drawings, 3D CAD models and product data sheets for virtually all industrial sectors on TraceParts. Design-relevant data for products from the Conrad range has also been made available there recently, while at the same time making it possible to purchase the desired products. 

Making use of synergies – especially in the service sector

“As a solution provider, it is important to listen to your customers, recognise their needs and act accordingly. Especially at a time when agility and efficiency are more important than ever, companies must think creatively and look for synergies and partners instead of trying to develop everything in-house if they are to be successful. We have therefore decided to draw on TraceParts’ expertise to provide our development, planning and design customers with the exact data they need for their projects.”

Dynamic listings for the Conrad product range

Conrad is underlining its clear focus on B2B with this new service: business customers who are registered with TraceParts can now access Conrad’s comprehensive product catalogue, which is being expanded dynamically. Over 110,000 products were already listed as of the beginning of May, with more being added every day. The following product categories are available to choose from: electromechanical components, passive components, active components, automation, building technology and power supplies. This also includes CAD data and other technical information on products from well-known manufacturers such as Siemens, Phoenix Contact, Molex, and TE Connectivity.

Placing orders on TraceParts

However, access to the models, drawings and data required for design and development for MCAD, ECAD, PCB, CAE and BIM is not the only advantage: 

“In our cooperation with TraceParts, we are of course focussing on simplifying procurement. As such, registered companies are not just able to download data and files free of charge from traceparts.com. They also have the option of requesting a customised quote directly from Conrad. This is then delivered with Conrad’s usual speed and quality.”

Simplifying complex procurement processes and making them more efficient, thereby helping customers to save time and money – Conrad not only fulfils this requirement about what it offers on its own platform but will also enable TraceParts users to access the range quickly and easily in future. A further step towards the major goal of becoming Europe’s leading procurement platform for technical requirements.
