Constantly increasing cost pressure calls for new intelligent approaches. Integration of different systems is becoming increasingly important. Following the approach of the Liebenstein Theses, we can draw up the formula:

PLM = Strategic Parts Management + CAD + PDM +ERP

In this sense, PLM is not to be understood as a system, but as a concept. We follow this approach in our descriptions. ENTERPRISE 3Dfindit Strategic Parts Management plays a fundamental role in this concept. By using a LinkDB, which serves as a referencing system and replicated intermediate data buffer for the systems involved, all data can be displayed in a single interface. Intelligently configured filters allow different users to access the data of interest to them and prevent the uncontrolled creation of new parts.
