Truenumber Solutions

Technology

True Engineering supplies technology for representing, moving and managing engineering values across your enterprise from calculation to email to report as statements of measurement and not just dissociated text.  These special number objects are called truenumbers.

We provide technologies for

  • Creating truenumbers
  • Storing, managing and searching truenumbers
  • Working with truenumbers (unit conversions, calculations, tolerance, formatting, tagging, etc.)
  • Embedding truenumbers in desktop tools like Word, Excel or Mathcad
  • An SDK for using truenumbers in custom .NET programming

Truenumbers encapsulate a lot of information in machine-readable form, including:

  • magnitude and precision of a number
  • units, such as lbf, mm, V
  • properties like RMS amplitude, yeild strength, average spacing
  • subject, like RXJ6-9 battery, a field-tested cable, the specified stainless steel bolt
  • context (project, assumptions, and environment)

All these and more are carried along with the actual value in an engineering statement every time the truenumber is stored, copied, sent, or otherwise reused across your organization.

Services

Our technology can be deployed in your department or enterprise and immediately begin improving your engineering outcomes, but often, development of best practices, special applications or systems integrations for particular use-cases are the initial drivers of truenumber adoption.

Contact us to discuss these options and put a plan together to meet your specific needs.  

Training

Whether out-of-the-box or custom integrated, training your engineering and management staff will enhance the benefits realized from a truenumber deployment. Ask about web-based or onsite training and workshop programs.
