Migrate PDM/PLM Systems
Migrating PDM and PLM systems can be a daunting barrier to any infrastructure upgrade, especially if you leverage PLM processes. How will you manage the CAD relationships? Version history? What are the unforeseen risks and challenges? Do you have the expertise in both the source and target systems? Having an experienced migration partner with the right processes and software tools is essential for a successful migration.
We offer a complete migration solution designed to meet your budgetary and timing constraints. Our Migration Team identifies your scope and requirements in phase 1 of our Data Migration Program. In phase 2, we use our Data Migration Software to extract, transform, heal and load your data. Our component architecture is platform / OS independent and is designed to work with any system. We also provide CAD Migrations, customizations, and ERP integrations.

Benefits

Save ongoing maintenance & hardware cost by shutting down your legacy PDM/PLM system, even if your existing CAD system doesn’t integrate well with your new system. Use our Legacy Data Manager to safely archive your data outside of the source and target. This new, innovative solution provides a low cost method to archive, search, and retrieve any version or instance of your legacy data.

Save time and money on your migration by down selecting your versions and dataset. Once your data is loaded into our Data Transformation Engine, we can intelligently down-select your files and versions, manipulate your product structure, and ensure your data integrity. This enables you to avoid migrating data that will not integrate well with your new system. Additionally, you can archive your legacy CAD files in our Legacy Data Manager for retrieval at any time.

Leverage a wide array of utilities designed to make decisions and automate tedious tasks throughout the migration. Leverage multiple cutover strategies to minimize down-time during the final cutover process. Review, distribute, modify, and re-incorporate data in Excel throughout the migration. Our migration manager will identify critical path, risks, and manage your tasks throughout the migration.
