Business process integration with unified PPR information models
Our advanced technologies enable all the relevant Product, Process and Resource (PPR) information to be defined, linked, updated and managed comprehensively as shown above. This approach enhances data integrity and version control, which is critical as the PPR information changes continuously over an entire product lifecycle. Sophisticated functions are provided to allow the different PPR objects and relationships to be defined and managed flexibly.
The embedded Windchill(TM) product data management (PDM) and collaborative workflow technologies from PTC allow TrueOrders(TM) to manage the product structures, documents and workflow processes throughout the entire product development lifecycles. With optional CAD adapters, TrueOrders(TM) can be integrated with popular CAD/CAM systems, allowing product designs to be managed, shared, annotated and viewed with its advanced 3D visualization technology. This capability promotes effective collaboration among team members involved in product development.
TrueOrders(TM) also provides very strong features for change management and revision control to ensure a proper audit trail of historical transactions. Such capabilities are critical for successful product and process lifecycle management in a collaborative enterprise.
