This capability level is essentually the same as Level 1 except instead of using neutral files it centers on the reuse of the native CAD data. They also made available to the extended enterprise by request. Access to these models becomes more important when the the enterprise uses a homogenuis product suite that can fully utilize the models without translation. This further reduces the chance of error and time to mission.

Summary:

• Drawings are the master
• 3D models are associated to the drawing
• Initial reuse of the model data through native formats
• The TDP is manually created
• There is little or no connectivity with the extended enterprise
