Is it possible to find points with respect to a UCS rather than the part coordinate system?

I've done some searching around and I found a couple places that said it can't be done but this doesn't seem right.  Is there a way to move the coordinate system of a part file or set a user coordinate system as the main coordinate system to use while finding points in a part file?  I have to find thousands of points along edges of parts, right now I'm finding them in the part coordinate system and transforming each of them to the UCS. At time's I'll have to switch points back into the part coordinate system which means inverting the matrix again and then transforming the point again.  It's a lot of inverting back and forth which makes the code messy and hard to keep track of which way the matrix is inverted. Is there an easier way or possibly an alternate method anybody knows of?
