Overview
Unmanaged product data — scattered across shared drives, legacy PDM systems, and disconnected tools — is one of the most significant sources of engineering rework, compliance risk, and slow product development cycles. PLM provides the managed backbone that connects every stage of the product lifecycle with accurate, controlled, and traceable data. Our PLM team implements industry-leading platforms, migrates legacy data, establishes governance frameworks, and integrates CAD and simulation tools into the PLM environment — enabling your organisation to move faster, make better decisions, and maintain full product data traceability.

Key Aspects
Deploying and configuring PLM platforms tailored to your organisation's workflows — establishing the authoritative product data backbone that connects engineering, manufacturing, procurement, and quality from concept to end-of-life.
Establishing the continuous digital thread that links product requirements, design intent, simulation results, manufacturing process data, and service history — enabling full traceability from stakeholder need to delivered product and field performance.
Migrating engineering data from legacy PDM systems, file vaults, and shared drives into the target PLM platform — including data cleansing, classification, metadata enrichment, and BOM restructuring to ensure the migrated data is accurate, usable, and consistently organised.
Defining data ownership, lifecycle states, change management workflows, access control policies, and audit trail requirements — establishing the governance structures that ensure product data remains accurate, controlled, and compliant throughout the product lifecycle.
Implementing and tuning CAD-to-PLM connectors for Catia, NX, CREO, SolidWorks, and Ansys — ensuring designers save directly to the managed vault, metadata is captured automatically, and design iterations are tracked without manual data entry overhead.
Structuring and managing engineering BOM, manufacturing BOM, and service BOM across product variants, options, and effectivity ranges — providing the BOM backbone for production planning, service operations, and regulatory submissions.
