CUSTOMISATION OF PDM/PLM SOFTWARE:
Understanding of business objectives, project data management, product data management,
process management.
2. CAD and CAE
• The management of analysis and simulation data aims to integrate analysis
and simulation results in the workflow of virtual product development.
• For this purpose, this information is embedded in a PDM environment.
• Most manufacturing companies today face the challenge of having to
develop faster and more complex products.
• Design and simulation play a key role for the evaluation of product
development results.
• What is new for many engineers is that simulation is gaining an increasing
importance and for a higher development efficiency its integration with 3D
product modeling is a critical success factor.
3. Problems in linkage of CAD and CAE
• - Personnel separation of modeling from the analysis,
• - Many different CAE software systems,
• - Many analysis variants,
• - Lack of relationship of CAD to CAE models,
• - Lack of process orientation,
• - Inadequate data protection,
• - Insufficient supplier integration.
5. CAE Data Model used in Teamcenter
• - TC_CAE_Defining: Therefore relationship can be traced, which CAEModelRev is
used by the CAEAnalysisRev, so which meshing is computed with a SIM file. For a
CAEAnalysisRev there can be only one CAEModelRev, because there can be only one
mesh for the computation.
• - TC_CAE_Source: This relationship indicates from which item revision a model has
been created, so what item revision was the source. It can be defined between
CAEModelRev and CAEGeometryRev or between CAEGeometryRev and CAD Master
revisions. In case that no idealized file is used, this relationship may also exist
between CAEModelRev and CAD master. There can be only one source at a time.
• - TC_CAE_Target: This relationship documents for which CAD-Master-Revision each
CAE-Item- Revision applies (from CAEModelRev to CAD -Master-Revision, from
CAEGeometryRev to CAD- Master-Revision). There may exist several TC_CAE_Target
relationships in parallel. An example of multiple parallel TC_CAE_Target relations is
the following: The simulation for a green part shall have validity for the identical
blue, yellow and red parts.
15. Manufacturing Process or Operations Management
• How do I run my manufacturing operations better? Different terms
are just trying to explain how wide the scope can be just trying to
explain how wide the scope can be.
• The best name to describe the whole "category" of Level 3 operations
is indeed Manufacturing Operations Management, or MOM.
• MOM represents MOM represents a holistic solution to improve
manufacturing a holistic solution to improve manufacturing
operations performance.
• MOM systems are built to consolidate the management of several
production processes, such as quality management, sequencing, non
conformance management, asset management and so on, within one
system.
“Manufacturing Operations Management has extensive capability for
supporting multiple key business processes and systems”
23. Enterprise system integration
• Enterprise applications are systems that span functional areas, focus
on executing business processes across the business firm, and include
all levels of management. Enterprise applications help businesses
become more flexible and productive by coordinating their business
processes more closely.
• There are four major enterprise applications:
1. Enterprise systems
2. Supply chain management systems
3. Customer relationship management systems
4. Knowledge management systems

26. Integrated Systems Approach
• Common set of applications
• Usually requires re-engineering of business
• processes
– Better alignment
• Limited customization – Easier upgrades
• Overcomes inefficiencies of independent systems
• Integrated data supports multiple business functions
27. Benefits of Enterprise Systems
• Help to unify the firm’s structure and organization:
One organization
• Management:
Firm wide knowledge-based management processes
• Technology:
Unified platform
• Business:
More efficient operations & customer- driven business processes
29. SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
• Supply chain management (SCM) systems help businesses manage relationships
with their suppliers.
• These systems provide information to help suppliers, purchasing firms,
distributors, and logistics companies share information about orders, production,
inventory levels, and delivery of products and services so that they can source,
produce, and deliver goods and services efficiently.
• SCM systems increase firm profitability by lowering the costs of moving and
making products and by enabling managers to make better decisions about how
to organize and schedule sourcing, production, and distribution.
• Supply chain management systems are one type of interorganizational system
because they automate the flow of information across organizational boundaries.
Firms that skillfully manage their supply chains get the right amount of products
from their source to point of consumption with the least amount of time and the
lowest cost.
31. SUPPLY CHAIN ANALYSIS
• The supply chain is also a two-way street. You not only have suppliers, but also
customers. You are a supplier to your customer. That relationship, on both ends,
needs to be examined carefully.
• Supplier Change Requests – Regardless of the form.
• Material Rejections – At receiving or in receiving inspection.
• Deviation Authorizations – Internal or initiated by the supplier.
• Material In Process Rejections/MRB – Assembly, test, burn-in.
• Customer Returns Field Failures – Bad part or product.
• Customer Change Requests – Regardless of the form.
• Customer Change Approval Time – And percent rejected.
35. BPM enabled by Services Oriented Architecture empowers the
business process management
• Achieve strategic business objectives by directing the deployment of resources
from across the organization into efficient processes that create value
• Efficiently align the organization with the wants and needs of your customers
• Promote business effectiveness and efficiency, while striving for innovation,
flexibility and integration with technology
• Continuously improve processes
• Rapidly create and restructure process driven applications and integrations
• Tightly integrate the organization and value chain, but with the flexibility to
rapidly change and adapt as circumstances require.
