Our PLM solutions to implement your digital thread strategy

As an integrator, we offer a range of solutions and services to guarantee your digital thread. We build and integrate state-of-the-art PLM solutions with your enterprise systems in compliance with Industry 4.0 standards to optimize every stage of the product lifecycle, from engineering to manufacturing. 

We help you configure and analyze your PLM data in a commercial environment, and improve your collaborative processes. In compliance with regulations, our solutions aim to ensure efficient product management, foster innovation and support the use of digital twins for advanced virtualization.

As a central tool for digital thread, PTC Windchill's state-of-the-art PLM solution digitizes all the company's product data, from CAD drawings to technical specifications, in order to optimize their use within the extended enterprise and with external partners. 

Windchill supports variant management, part classification, supplier management and service BOM management. Collaboration between different departments and stakeholders (design, engineering, production, quality and maintenance) is facilitated by real-time information updates, helping to manage different product configurations. CAD data agnostic, Windchill integrates with Creo, CATIA, Solidworks, NX and more. 

Deployable in the cloud (SaaS) or on-premise (on-premise), Windchill helps companies improve efficiency, innovation and compliance by centralizing and structuring product data throughout the design process, right through to recycling or disposal. Designed to integrate with enterprise ERP and CRM systems, Windchill simplifies the organization of an integrated ecosystem.

Based on the concept of connected digital thread, Aras Innovator is a platform dedicated to the creation and deployment of PLM applications. The solution enables the management of all product data (CAD, technical, compliance, maintenance) to offer complete, centralized traceability of information. Its open architecture makes Aras Innovator adaptable to the specific needs of the company and its developments, while facilitating integration with the organization's information systems (ERP, CRM, MES, etc.). 

Product updates are automatically documented and teams are informed of modifications. Configuration management ensures that the correct version of components and documents is maintained at every stage of the product lifecycle. Flexible and modular, offered in Cloud (SaaS) or on-premise (on-premise) models, Aras Innovator combines application functionalities and Low Code development with a community-based solution delivery model to help companies and manufacturers efficiently manage product-related information and processes.

Published by Siemens Digital Industries Software, Teamcenter offers a robust set of functions for the complete management of product data, including version, configuration and change management, to ensure full traceability. 

This approach facilitates collaboration between different company departments, and the management of regulatory compliance and standards. Tightly integrated with Siemens NX and Solid Edge CAD solutions, Teamcenter offers fluid, consistent management of design data. 

Its advanced functionality for managing complex product configurations makes it a popular solution for the automotive and aerospace industries. Available as an on-premise, Cloud or SaaS (Teamcenter X) model, Teamcenter easily integrates with other Siemens solutions, including simulation and analytical tools, to develop an integrated management ecosystem.

Windchill PLM Upgrade and Data Migration

An industrial company in the defense sector needed to update its customized Windchill PLM applications in order to benefit from the functional and ergonomic enhancements of Windchill PDMLink 12 . By coordinating 4 project flows, Inetum converged all existing applications into a single solution adapted to PDMLink's architecture and prerequisites. Inetum handled the data migration, minimizing disruption to running processes, and carried out the test and validation campaign to qualify the migrated data. Adaptations by business process or technical data flow offered the customer increased visibility of progress, rapid adaptation of priorities to industrial objectives, ongoing support for key users' thinking and decisions, and enhanced synergy with corporate projects.

Partnership for Windchill PLM design, maintenance and support

A major player in the aeronautics industry was looking for a partner to maintain and support its PLM systems, consisting of Windchill-based applications with Creo and Catia integration. Inetum went beyond the customer's request, proposing a dedicated team and production centers (in Toulouse and Casablanca) to meet specific needs, with the support of a long-standing partner for expertise in 3DS/CAA architecture and Exalead-based solutions. In conjunction with a series of improvements (ISO 9001 quality certification of the GMS [Global Management System] application; and implementation of the PCAL standard linked to the security rules required by NATO), the customer benefited from Inetum's experience in Agile development and waterfall development cycles, and a continuous improvement program to boost productivity.

Deployment of an Aras document management solution 

A specialist in electrical solutions and advanced materials was looking for a document management system (DMS) compatible with its existing JD Edwards ERP and Hydra MES solutions. The customer had chosen Aras Innovator to implement it. Inetum proposed to develop and deploy this DMS following an iterative lifecycle at a fixed price, covering 89% of requirements with standard and parameterized Aras functionalities. Inetum also set up a catalog of options for functionalities that the customer was reluctant to launch in the first deployment phase. The customer benefited from a feasible and efficient project to implement a robust and scalable solution, and a solid foundation for the future digitization of its business processes.
