Details: Changes to Baselines that DO NOT affect Customer VPEs

The following changes are available in the aPriori Baseline VPEs only. If you wish to take advantage of these new capabilities, the VPE needs to be upgraded to the most recent Cost Model version. Please contact your VPE Admin or aPriori Account Manager to plan work.

• Manual Paint: this release introduces the new Surface Treatment process Manual Paint, which is included automatically when you cost Composite parts. It is also available for manual inclusion in other routings. The cost model accounts for the cost of sanding, cleaning, priming, painting, and curing the part in a paint-booth facility. The baseline cost model assumes the use of aerospace-grade primers and paints.
