Marine & Offshore
Gain a competitive edge by leveraging your time-to-market
Manufacturers for the Marine & Offshore industries face several challenges as their products have to withstand the harsh conditions of the sea, sometimes over a hundred kilometres from the seashore. This not only puts pressure on manufacturers to build their products sturdy enough to survive in such environment, but also to create and manage the documentation of these often customer specific, one-off products in a way that the after-sales services can be handled with accuracy and confidence for decades.
To stay competitive and ensure long-term customer satisfaction, such manufacturers need to have a product management system with capabilities of aligning and keeping history on their engineering data coming from different CAD or documentation systems.
How Bluestar PLM benefits Marine & Offshore Industries
Synchronize projects
With the collaboration between Bluestar PLM’s and Dynamics 365’s project management module, engineering projects can be started in the PLM, then finalized in D365/AX. Integration to Power BI and Bluestar PLM’s advanced workflows allow engineering managers to have full control over the engineering project processes, while the SmartExport-functionality provides an easy solution for exporting and sharing the project data.
Align CAD data in a shared database
Manage CAD data from different 2D and 3D CAD systems in a shared database to be able to create and document full products or projects within a single system.
Standardize product description & enhance reusability
Create multi-level classification system with attributes to improve searchability and reusability for engineering and management. Using attributes to autogenerate name and description can increase the traceability and standardization of data, minimizing the unnecessary re-creation of already existing products, components and documents.
Traceability and transparency
Gain full management over your engineering data with status and revision control and utilize these functions in D365/AX as well. Keeping full history on products or components allows engineers and managers to find and retrieve previous revisions easily.
Full documentation control
Create general and product-specific documentation and certifications through the Microsoft Office-integration and manage them in Bluestar PLM.
The implementation process was painless – especially on the Bluestar PLM side, where all the underlying system information was controlled. We experienced a safe support from PDM Technology and the system is easy to use. We heard good recommendations about Bluestar PLM from others in the industry who were very satisfied. That confirmed our feeling that we were choosing the best solution.
Jesper Bangsgaard, Logistics Manager, Hydratech Industries
The level of quality has improved in all of our products, and the more standardized the product, the faster it can be produced. The implementation of Bluestar PLM was based on PDM Technology’s ability to challenge us with critical questions. That is how we developed the core elements needed in a solution that suit our business.
