About the solution

Systems of the PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) class are designed to manage product data throughout the lifecycle of the product: from requirements definition and design to commissioning and disposal.

For a PLM solution to deliver maximum benefit, comprehensive integration with adjacent enterprise information system needs to be considered. Examples include ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), MES (Manufacturing Execution System), SCM (Supply Chain Management), QMS (Quality Management System).

PLM systems functions and objectives

Requirements and test management and control
Improvement of the designed products quality as the customer’s requirements are appropriately taken into account at an early stage and test results are analyzed in detail
Product structure management and manufacturing process design
Data and change management
Mitigation of the risk of defects as product data are timely fed into both the PLM system and adjacent systems, electronic and paper archives, and updated
Processes and communication management

Accelerated development of design and manufacturing documentation thanks to the properly set-up management processes and faster internal communication among employees involved in product design
New product design project management
Mitigation of the risk of failure to complete design and production on time as all engineering work of all units, contractors and suppliers is planned
Analysis and reporting
Descriptive and predictive analysis of data from other enterprise management information systems to take long-term management or engineering decisions

Advantages of cooperation

Experience in integrated implementation of PDM/PLM systems, also in conjunction with other systems, including CAD, ERP, MES

Standard implementation. The necessary functions are primarily implemented by means of configuring standard solutions, with additional development minimized as far as possible

Focus on a complete and integrated solution, from methodology development and data normalization to enterprise business processes finetuning
