Your IT team can adapt PLM to your unique business processes with configuration, not customization – and extend PLM with integrations to other best-in-class domain and enterprise applications. Administrative tools simplify IT management and maintenance to focus on priorities that matter most to your business.
Teamcenter and Bill of Materials Management
Managing to meet customer demands, as well as connecting with a growing number of partners and suppliers, can be difficult. That is why effective BOM (bill of materials) management and configuration are critical to your success, whether your product consists of ten parts or ten million. As you develop more innovative products to remain competitive, managing accurate product definitions, including BOM, becomes increasingly complex. Our solution helps you know your product by providing a common source of BOM information across your organization. Whether you need essential or more advanced BOM management, you can meet and exceed the market demand for more innovative and varied product offerings.
Teamcenter and Change Management & Workflow
Teamcenter eliminates costly overruns and delays due to the impact of a change across multiple domains. With Teamcenter, you can reduce the manual effort and cost of managing any PLM process. From coordinating complex change across disciplines, to executing a simple design review, to directing a response to quality issues, you can focus people on the right tasks, with the right data, to make the right decisions at the right time. You have visibility to the data, people and processes impacted by a change. This allows stakeholders across all disciplines to understand exactly what is changing and how it affects them.
Teamcenter and Document Management & Publishing
Documents can be expensive to produce, but with Teamcenter, you can keep documentation aligned with product changes to reduce the time and cost of development. Teamcenter provides documentation tools to help your teams create specifications, analysis reports, 2D/3D illustrations, spreadsheets, test results, and technical publications. Documents and technical publications are in the same product lifecycle management (PLM) system as all your other product-related information. Document authors have direct access to up-to-date product information like bill of materials, parts lists and 3D geometry, and can work to the same milestones.
Teamcenter and Electrical Design Management
Teamcenter electrical CAD management automates your engineering change, validation, and approval processes to speed cycle time and improve product quality. Collaborate with design data, revisions, and product configurations – across locations and extended supply chains. Digital mock-up and validation capabilities provide visibility to design changes in real-time. You can validate changes against every configuration, and visualize, probe, section, analyze and mark up. Version management and access controls mean the right people have the right information.
Teamcenter Environmental Compliance & Product Sustainability
Teamcenter helps businesses stay competitive in today's market with a framework for product sustainability and environmental compliance initiatives. Teamcenter provides environmental compliance and product sustainability solutions to help you control and trace the material makeup of your products down to the substance level. You can limit the use of hazardous substances in your products and reduce the risk of non-compliance with regulatory directives (REACH, RoHS, Conflict Minerals, etc.). While supporting your environmental compliance and sustainability objectives, you can grow your business and build customer loyalty by developing innovative, earth-friendly products.

PLM stands for Product Lifecycle Management. The main goal of PLM is to manage the entire product lifecycle. PLM manages the product from the moment of concept to consumer. There are typically four phases of the product lifecycle including:
- Product Inception
- Product and Engineering Designs
- Production
- Distribution and Maintenance
PDM stands for Product Data Management. PDM comprises software that manages product data and process information. Some of this information includes:
- Computer-aided design (CAD) data
- Model
- Part Information
