In fast-changing business environments, mergers, acquisitions, and organizational shifts often create fragmented PLM landscapes and disconnected processes. Without a scalable integration strategy, data silos and system inconsistencies slow innovation and increase risk. Modern, future-ready integration ensures consistent data flows, harmonized processes, and long-term operational resilience, to build a unified and efficient PLM ecosystem.
We orchestrate the digital thread through a closed-loop architecture connecting leading PLM platforms from Siemens, PTC, Dassault, Aras, and CONTACT with SAP enterprise governance. We integrate CAD, PLM, and Application Lifecycle Management with Enterprise Resource Planning, Manufacturing Execution Systems, and Internet of Things environments. From Engineering to Manufacturing Bill of Materials transformation to the digital twin, we synchronize process-critical data and eliminate system gaps across hardware, software, and service.
The integration is achieved via our proprietary xCI solution. xCI connects 3DEXPERIENCE CATIA with Teamcenter, Aras, and CIM. While it uses a different technical approach than our traditional CMI or PDM Workbench tools, it ensures comparable, high-speed performance. Your path to deployment: Ready for productive use within days via our Rapid Implementation Package. Test licenses are available for extensive evaluation.
For over 25 years, T-Systems has offered CAD integrations for PLM systems, even for complex scenarios in industries such as automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing. Our solutions are unique, high-performance, and exceptionally user-friendly, and can be deeply integrated directly within your CAD environment. Semi-annual updates, rapid implementation of individual requirements, and worldwide expert support complete the offering. The solutions can be implemented quickly, so standard functionality is available for productive use within just a few days.
The PDM WebConnector directly links PLM systems like Teamcenter with SAP ERP. This allows for the automatic synchronization of Engineering Bills of Materials (EBOM), Manufacturing Bills of Materials (MBOM), and material master data. Additionally, we integrate ALM tools such as Codebeamer, Polarion, and Jira into the digital thread. This creates a seamless process from mechanical engineering and manufacturing to software development for innovative software-defined products.
Integration is not just an IT project, but the backbone of digital transformation. With decades of experience in the automotive and manufacturing industries, T-Systems understands interfaces and processes. Rather than rigid "black box" solutions, T-Systems offers a vendor-neutral, best-of-breed architecture. As part of the Telekom Group, we guarantee the highest levels of data security and scalability (cloud-ready). We ensure your IT landscape is prepared to deliver for present as well as tomorrow's innovations – from digital twins to AI-powered manufacturing.
CAD data conversion enables cross-system collaboration, increases performance through data reduction, and ensures long-term archiving – a process for which COMFOX from T-Systems is considered a "best-in-class" tool, as it precisely converts CAD data into formats such as JT or STEP AP242. Through close collaboration with leading original equipment manufacturers, the solution has achieved a high level of maturity. It meets advanced requirements such as Product Manufacturing Information (PMI) and consistently ranks among the top performers in independent benchmarks of conversion solutions.
