Scope of Work

This opportunity requires the procurement of a perpetual license for VGSTUDIO MAX software, along with maintenance support for specific modules including Dongle License, Foam/Powder Analysis, and Digital Volume Correlation. The software is crucial for high-fidelity 3D visualization, precise segmentation of internal structures, accurate dimensional measurements, and detailed defect analysis.
