Product data management (PDM).

All your construction data – Central, secure and available when you need it.

To fuel successful product developments, you don’t only need great ideas but also data and having a secure, central location to store that data that can be accessed around the clock is the cornerstone of fast collaboration between development teams for future-oriented innovations.

What our solutions can do for you:

Optimum collaboration.

Centralised data storage, automated authorisation processes, version controls and the ability to track revisions allow teams to work together more productively even across locations.

Process acceleration.

Development teams don’t need to worry about searching for and managing data, freeing up time for them to focus on their actual work—digital design—meaning innovations make it to market faster.

Lower risk of costly mistakes.

Data loss, the accidental wiping of data and conflicting or outdated versions are a thing of the past as are time-intensive and costly mistakes. The result? Optimum product quality guaranteed.

Simpler development of future products.

PDM acts as a knowledge database that can be exploited for future product developments.

Data security.

Design data and valuable intellectual property are kept under lock and key.

The Smartflyer construction team is small and needs to focus on the essentials. With the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, we are creating a basis to unleash our innovative power as we do not have to worry about software updates, mirroring or backups, but can fully focus on the development of the Smartflyer. Furthermore, the 3DEXPERIENCE platform is scalable meaning it grows with our dynamic team. Overall, the 3DEXPERIENCE platform saves us valuable time and protects our IT budget all while optimising product quality and efficiency, which is worth its weight in gold to us.

What is product data management (PDM)?

Product data management (PDM) is a technology that allows all relevant product data, such as CAD, to be managed effectively.

With precisely defined permissions, you can be sure that the right people have access to the data they need when they need it. Workflows automate and accelerate company-specific design and approval processes, while search features enable all teams to quickly find existing 3D models, related drawings and other documents spelling the end for duplicates.

Design teams are able to work more closely, faster and reliably, boosting innovation and giving companies a competitive edge on the market.

Process automation.

Our process automation tools simplify workflows and tackle recurring tasks much more quickly and easily, so you can concentrate on designing. Our SOLIDWORKS add-ons open the door to enormous time-saving potential, for example when it comes to converting and printing drawings for production orders or adding items to your ERP system.

Integration as a Service.

Connect systems, data and people with a flexible micro-service network. Benefit from a tailored solution based on the latest container virtualisation with the SolidLine Integration Service. Choose between standardised out-of-the-box modules or individual solutions for maximum flexibility into the future.

Step by step:

Step 1.

Strategy and processes analysis.

We analyse your current processes, systems, and tools and draft a personal solution tailored to your needs before selecting the best PDM/PLM solution.

Step 2.

Implementation.

Once the solutions are in place, we move on to the migration phase. Our aim is that the users hardly notice what is going on so they can continue to work without interruptions.

Step 3.

Training.

We help you introduce your users to the new software so they can get the best out of it. Choose between individual or group courses, online or on-site.

Step 4.

Lifecycle services.

Stay right up to date with our software services and benefit from extensive knowledge databases, expert forums and libraries. Our experts can also be reached via our hotline for any technical support queries you may have.
