10 Reasons to chose an ERP-based PLM

Imagine a single unified system that not only enhances data reliability and process transparency, but also reduces the IT challenges associated with maintaining and monitoring two separate environments.

This system facilitates enhanced information flow, and shortemed lead-times, by seamlessly connecting previously isolated departments such as engineering and manufacturing. The outcome? A significant increase in the overall company efficiency.

Preview: Reasons why you need ERP-based PLM

Having a Cloud PLM software embedded in an ERP environment brings a series of advantages. This includes…

Manage 2D/3D both mechanical and electronic CAD files across multiple disciplines with a two-way exchange of meta-data between CAD, PLM and ERP. This allows you to track revision-specific BOMs, drawings and technical documentation against production orders, sales orders and purchase orders. This ensures that CAD, PLM and ERP data are always automatically kept in sync in a single solution to prevent human errors and to save time and money.

By storing and managing data on material declarations, chemicals and regulatory specifications in one single solution, you will be able to comply with international substance regulations.

ERP-based PLM allows you to easily centralize, calculate and share your compliance data with your partners, suppliers and customers – as you are obligated. When your entire product line complies with regulations for dangerous materials, such as RoHS and REACH, you avoid the risk of having to pay huge fines, make expensive rework, suffer credibility or have your products taken off-market.

When you have all this information in one system – Microsoft Dynamics 365 (D365) & AX – users in Engineering, Operations and Manufacturing have access to the same compliance data in real-time. This reduces errors, allows you to perform due diligence and ensures that expensive non-compliant products that require rework are not fabricated.

Enables distributed engineering and manufacturing teams to collaborate globally with easy and fast access to centralized product data and distributed, up-to-date 3D files.
