Explicit CAD, PDM, & collaboration software
Unleash SharePoint for Product Development
Engineering and technical teams generate much of an organizations’ most valuable intellectual property – customer requirements, engineering calculations, detailed CAD designs, product documentation. And the list goes on.
While these organizations have rich solutions for creating and evolving these complex forms of information, a key challenge remains: efficiently sharing them with the broader team. The value of this content, and the productivity of the extended product development team, would skyrocket if access to this information could be made easier.
Create, Collaborate, Control, Configure, & Communicate
Whether you are small or big, whether your product is a cell phone, an airplane, or mold tooling for an OEM, succeeding at product development is more challenging than ever. Successful companies today are those that have a product development solution in place that can effectively manage product complexity and variability.

Hard-to-find, unreliable data hinder innovation and productivity. A single, trusted digital product development data repository allows manufactures to expertly manage all forms of product data – including mechanical, electrical, and software. Windchill PDMLink is this solution. Web-based for easy enterprise-wide access, this PDM system supports geographically dispersed teams while managing critical processes such as change/configuration management and release to manufacturing.
Windchill PartsLink Classification and Reuse
Integral parts management
Part duplication and part number proliferation is inefficient and expensive. By reusing existing designs via an online catalog, you can reduce cost and time to market. Windchill PartsLink Classification and Reuse – an integral option for Windchill PDMLink – allows you to organize internal design libraries and make them available to your engineering team through flexible, easy-to-use Web-based library searching mechanisms.
Archive and restore Windchill and Pro/INTRALINK information
A cluttered database with obsolete or infrequently used data can impact your system performance. Yet your company requires long term retention of this data for compliance with corporate policies as well as industry and government regulations. The optional Windchill Archive Module provides the solution to this dilemma - it allows you to purge unneeded information from your database, to archive that information to long-term storage, and to easily restore the information when you need it.
