The Top-Down philosophy suggests a "Master Surface"..... typically as a Skelaton in Pro/E-Speak.... then copy the master surface regions as needed for each part of the model.... in ASSEMBLY Mode. Try to keep the overall intent in the skelaton..... and geometry that drives or affects multiple parts of the assy..... the skelaton serves as a one stop shopping for the driving geometry....

Starting out with surfaces (If SW has that capability) is the hot ticket.
