Complete PLM Integration Solution

Integrations of enterprise systems are natural for almost every PLM deployment.

They are often technically challenging, but that is what our software engineers thrive at. However, it’s not only about technologies. Many people from various teams and departments are usually involved, which requires customer-orientation and flexibility – things we at TTPSC are most fond of!

PLM Integration experience

Integration of a PLM solution with a downstream ERP system is critical to fully benefit from PLM features. PTC Windchill has several options to address this type of connectivity including: Enterprise Systems Integratoin (ESI) – a comprehensive product integrating Windchill with SAP and Oracle Manufacturing, allowing publication of product and manufacturing data on product release. This is a preferred option for integrating with SAP and Oracle Manufacturing platforms.

Alternatively, ERPConnector is a Windchill framework allowing publishing of product data upon release and is a good starting point for building a robust integration. This would be a good option for ERP systems other than SAP or Oracle Manufacturing.

TT PSC has extensive experience in building ERP integrations using both ESI and EPRConnector.

Integration - workshops

1

We will start with an initial requirements workshop (lasting between 1 and 3 days), after which we will draft the first solution concept with high level solution approach for main areas (what will be published by which system, triggered by what events, what types of data, etc.) and a ROM estimate. We strongly recommend a workshop-driven, prototype-based, agile-iterative approach when building any PLM integration. This means we recommend:

  • Dividing the project into smaller functional areas
  • Not scoping and designing the entire integration at the beginning, but rather designing general concepts and then detailing step by step.

Following workshops are scheduled to detail further integration areas:

  • Part integration
  • BOM integration
  • ECN integration
  • Document integration
3

After each workshop each area is detailed (data mappings, business logic, etc) and we start implementation early.
