Product Lifecycle Management [PLM]
Deliver on the promise of innovation.
SoftExpert PLM Suite provides the necessary requirements
and capabilities skills companies need to successfully
manage information and facilitate communication and
collaboration across throughout the entire product lifecycle,
from its conception, through to design and manufacturinge, to
service and final disposal. In addition, SoftExpert PLM Suite
also helps manufacturing engineering companies to develop,
describe, manage and communicate product-related
information about their products (PDM).
SoftExpert PLM Suite provides a centralized product
development database which that helps companies eliminate
effort duplication by maintaining other product information
such as costs, characteristics, specifications and
development status in a single place.
SoftExpert PLM Suite also helps enforce ensure consistent
product development procedures and policies, eliminating
confusion and lost time working "against" the process. With an
integrated workflow system, SoftExpert PLM Suite allows
organizations to easily determine where a process is held
upbottlenecks. And, by providing a complete audit trail for
changes, companies can also save time when searching to
find what data was changed, by whom, when and why.
Some The following are some of the benefits organizations
may can expect with SoftExpert PLM Suite include:
• Reduced engineer cycles through re-use of master data;
• Reduced rework and waste;
• Improved product quality;
• Reduced time- to- market;
• Gain onImproved processes conformity;
• Improved Boosted productivity;
• Better use of equipment assets.
By adopting SoftExpert PLM Suite as their PLM
solution, organizations can be resthave the
guarantee assured that their products will be
aligned with their business strategy, which will
help them to managefacilitating the
management of the complex challenges
associated with bringing new products to
market.
Most importantly, SoftExpert PLM Suite
enables allows organizations to improve
overall quality and reduce the costs and risks
associated with a growing number of
regulatory compliance and corporate

complete product assembly and subassemblyies
data in a revision-controlled product structure.
•Import item file and data, assembly relationship
data (product structure) and quality control
dimensions directly from through SolidWorks, Solid
Edge and other CAD Solutions.
•Manage and secure thesecure CADthe designCAD
objectsdesign objects (assemblies, parts,
drawings, etc.), track engineering changes, and
maintain the appropriate relationships between the
CAD design objects and the PLM's product
structure.
•Send automatic notifications any time an with every
new item, BOM or document is versioned.
•Easily identify changes between the revisions of an assembly and subassemblies related to a specific item.
•Easily view affected assemblies for items added to a change order, and mitigate blind revisioning by notifying sub-s users
that a changes to an item will affect parent assemblies.
MAIN FEATURES
Quality Management
•Anticipate and minimize poor performance or
unexpected failures, and, identify corrective actions to
ensure the highest possible yield, quality, and
reliability through an advanced FMEA tool.
