Get Up and Running with PDM Quickly, and Cost-Effectively

Product lifecycle management (PLM) can bring together all the product information and processes you need in one centralized system. But how can you prevent the complexity of the product lifecycle itself from overwhelming your users – or your IT department?

We are pleased to offer Teamcenter® from Siemens PLM Software, the world’s most widely implemented product data management (PDM) solution. Teamcenter simplifies PLM by taking the guesswork out of the deployment process. We deliver a flexible portfolio of focused applications organized to allow you to strategically grow your PLM maturity in a way that makes sense for you.

Start with PLM.
For most of our customers, the first step on the PLM path is to take control of your product data and processes. Manage and share mechanical, electronics, software and simulation data, as well as documents and bills of materials (BOMs) in a single environment. Use standardized workflows and change processes to streamline your organization.

Extend the value.
Next, take a look at related domains and processes. Manage requirements. Include suppliers. Connect engineering with manufacturing and service. Extend the value of PLM across the product lifecycle.

Transform your business.
PLM can help you take your business to the next level. Apply transformational solutions to your product lifecycle for a profound business impact. Drive your product cost, quality and sustainability initiatives. Establish a systems-driven approach to product development.

Build on a solid PLM platform.
A common platform supports every Teamcenter application. Among the many platform capabilities, Teamcenter features leading-edge deployment options to get your implementation up and running quickly with the most advanced and intuitive PLM user experience available.

Start with PLM

Do you need PLM, but don’t know where to start?

Take the first step to manage and share product designs, documents, BOMs and data with Teamcenter. Use standardized workflows and change processes to streamline efficiency throughout your organization.

Engineering Process Management

Teamcenter gives you a single, organized, and secure source of product engineering and process knowledge. You can capture, manage, and leverage geometry and engineering data created by multiple CAD, CAM and CAE systems. By allowing different design teams to work together as a single entity – regardless of location – you can improve development time, quality and productivity.

Content and Document Management

Teamcenter brings your document processes into your PLM environment, synchronizing them with your product development processes and keeping documents and content up-to-date with product changes. Providing an advanced Microsoft Office interface, as well as a structured authoring and publishing environment for SGML/XML, Teamcenter greatly reduces the effort to generate accurate, high-quality documents that can be tailored by market, language, or product. Technical publication organizations as well as workers generating documents in support of product development can benefit by participating in the PLM environment.

Bill of Materials Management

Teamcenter helps you effectively manage the bill of materials (BOM) as a critical part of design and manufacturing by providing clear, current and accurate product definitions, specific to the needs of teams and users. Beyond engineering and manufacturing, you can use Teamcenter’s as-built capability to document physical products and prototypes, as well as support compliance, testing, warranty, support and service initiatives.

Portfolio, Program and Project Management

Establishing control over your product lifecycle is critical to transforming your company’s processes of innovation to maximize value. Teamcenter offers a complete infrastructure for strategic portfolio planning, and program and project management that can be directly linked to detailed execution across the product lifecycle. Teamcenter helps you stop weak projects and fund good projects by providing continuous visibility into program performance to make informed product portfolio decisions.

Requirements Management

Teamcenter capabilities for requirements management ensure the delivery of products that reflect the voice of your customer. By empowering all individuals and functional teams throughout the lifecycle with visibility to customer requirements and the knowledge behind them, you can deliver the right products to the right markets while achieving revenue and performance targets.

Manufacturing Process Management

Teamcenter, combined with Tecnomatix, gives you a single, scalable and secure source of manufacturing data that supports lifecycle processes from engineering through production. With a fully managed, single source of knowledge for products, processes, resources and plants, you can increase manufacturing’s influence on product innovation to drastically improve profitability, time-to-market and quality.

Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul / SLM

Teamcenter’s configuration-driven service data management and maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) capabilities can help you improve your service lifecycle management business. Configuration-driven MRO bridges the gap between your logistics, maintenance and engineering communities to help drive profitable growth, leaner operations, and improved asset performance.

Supplier Integration

Teamcenter offers supplier integration solutions that allow you to more effectively engage suppliers, engineering and procurement in the sourcing and supplier management process.

Teamcenter enables the exchange of product data between OEMs and suppliers (even suppliers that don’t have Teamcenter) for better cost management, as well as more efficient product development and manufacturing.

Transform Your Business

You’re seeing a real improvement in productivity, performance and time-to-market with PLM.
