collaboration
Nowadays, product development and production take place in a team. Closely networked partnerships characterize the picture – customers, suppliers, locations all over the globe determine our working day.
All participants rely on current 3D product data, drawings, reports, etc. in suitable format and with the required quality.
Collaboration is a central business process for each and every modern enterprise. Our PLM industry solutions consider three collaboration scenarios described below:
Collaboration in the worldwide network
Centers distributed all over the globe assume development tasks. The teams cooperate in a joint process. Information is to be evaluated without delay and always up-to-date within the system.
With its Document Distribution Manager, cenitCONNECT efficiently and intelligently ensures local availability and thus best-possible performance when accessing even large amounts of data, such as, for example, complex 3D originals.
Collaboration beyond company boundaries
Close partners cooperate on a common platform in processes with direct access
to all necessary data. Users should be able to rely on redundance-free and up-to-date information.
Access via Internet provides a flexible integration of worldwide operating teams – both in one’s own company and with external partners.
Based on the new safety measures of SAP PLM 7 concerning direct collaboration, CENIT provides industry-specific solutions. A tailor-made authorization concept for individual scenarios ensures the protection of the processes without interfering with daily work routines.
Collaboration of independent partners
Only the flexible compilation of clearly defined working packages allows for the inclusion of partners who work at subtasks independently of a common backbone. The simple re-integration of the work results, the quick exchange of ideas, assessments, and modifications are an essential part.
The cenitCONNECT Enterprise Connector provides the necessary adaptations of the processes to the participants’ requirements with only a slight need for configuration. Naming conventions are complied with in a manner totally transparent for the participants, the formats required for 2D and 3D data are generated, and the quality of the working packages safeguarded.
Advantages & benefit
- Significant reduction of coordination tasks because of information which is always up-to-date – the employees and partners focus on the processes that do create value.
- Transparent collaboration, since processes can be documented and understood without additional effort by the participants – expensive misunderstandings and delays are prevented.
- Security and flexibility for all participants, since modern methods secure the data against unauthorized use – a quick, process- and project-related adaptation of the rights, roles, and rules is possible.
