Optimize Development Processes
Transform How You
Plan, Coordinate, and
Deliver Electronics
Master fast, modern hardware development, whether you’re a solo engineer juggling multiple disciplines or part of an organization coordinating across many teams.
Drive Innovation with Altium –
Lightweight Solo, Structured for Teams
Enhance
Collaboration Across
Electronics Design
- See the same always-up-to-date design data in one place—no email threads, no out-of-sync files.
- Review and comment in context so issues resolve faster.
- Share requirements, BOMs, and manufacturing feedback without friction.
Plan and Track
Hardware Development
with Clarity
- Standardize work only where it helps, without imposing process on those who don’t need it.
- Use cloud-based version control to coordinate parallel development.
- Track progress and design history with the right level of structure for your scale.
Maintain
Quality and Compliance
at Your Pace
- Lead design reviews and approval processes to meet quality standards.
- Unify all design data and workflows in one workspace with flexible access controls.
- Track changes across ECAD and MCAD with transparent history and instant reversibility.
Altium Capabilities
for the Modern Engineering Manager
Unify Your Entire
Development Process
in One Workspace
Enable your engineering team to work in the same place across disciplines. ECAD, MCAD, requirements, supply chain, and manufacturing can collaborate securely wherever they are in the world.
Monitor Project Health
and Prevent Delays
Quickly get insights on the status of design reviews, verification of requirements, and supply chain warnings. Understand the progress of your project and unblock potential sources of delays. Get real-time alerts about supply chain issues and component obsolescence before they derail your PCB timeline.
Maintain Traceability Across
Every Design Change
Track historic changes made to PCBs, requirements, and part selection. Enhance traceability and ensure compliance during audits.
Keep Your Entire Design
Process Synchronized
Manage schematics, constraints, and outputs in a single synchronized environment. Stop switching between tools and sync external data so you can stay focused on engineering.
Speed Up Design Reviews
Perform design reviews in the same workspace where PCB design takes place. Use suggested design review templates, invite multiple reviewers, and easily track review progress. Reduce back-and-forth delays by using collaborative design tools with review templates and live commenting.
Foster ECAD-MCAD
Collaboration
Enable a true co-design workflow with a live, bi-directional link between your MCAD and ECAD environments. Never waste time re-importing static files or guessing the latest design changes.
Connect Requirements
Directly to Your Designs
Connect requirements to PCB designs and schematics. Improve requirement visibility and ensure that designs are made within pre-defined constraints.
Eliminate Rework With Automatic
Requirement Updates
Ensure every requirement change is automatically reflected across projects. Keep teams aligned and eliminate costly rework from outdated information.
Simplify Compliance with
Linked Test Coverage
Plan and link test cases to requirements and PCB designs. Track coverage and capture evidence to ensure compliance without disrupting engineering work. Make audits easier and reduce the risk of missed requirements.
Unify Procurement and Engineering
with Shared BOM Data
Simplify BOM management with integrated electronic project management tools that connect procurement and engineering teams. Automatically enrich BOMs with up-to-date supply chain data.
Anticipate Risks Before They
Impact Projects
Stay ahead of supply chain disruptions with up-to-date part data on availability, pricing, and lifecycle status. As designs and sourcing options shift, see changes within your design portal and avoid costly surprises.
Resolve Component Issues
Before They Escalate
Efficiently identify and resolve electronic component issues, track usage, and manage obsolescence with shared component libraries. Sustain your electronic designs for longer by keeping them aligned to requirements, BOMs, mechanical designs, and manufacturing plans.
