Mate issue with .IGES import

I imported an IGES file into and none of the mates were imported with it. I searched in the insert area but wasn't able to see anything useful. Any suggestions?

On the mating side we have a very different approach to mates compared to other CAD systems so even if the mates were imported they wouldn't be very useful. @derek_boase take a look at how we handle mates and see how we help reduce the number needed by about a ratio of 3 to 1.
If you need help mating your import together feel free to share a link to a public document here in the forum so we can take a look and help out.
