Data Management:
Companies are
investing in technologies to stay competitive and provide unique value
to customers. It is important that the technologies created,
acquired, refined and revised is put to good re-use within the
organization in a safe and secure manner based on the organizational
workflow structure. Technical or otherwise, data related to
company's products and processes should be accessible only on a
need-to-know basis. PDMWorks Enterprise from SolidWorks provides
Data Management Solutions with emphasis on three aspects of day-to-day
requirements, namely, Ease-of-Use, Security and Customizable/
Configurable Solution. Key aspects of PDMWorks Enteprise that
help customers stay focussed in their core-competence areas instead of
the PDM environment are:
- Easy to deploy across large
multi-location enterprises
- Save, Locate, Re-use and Update
Knowledge
- Manage customizable Workflow
without writing specialised codes
- Integrate with ERP/ MRP systems
using Rule-based interfaces
- View CAD and Non-CAD data essential
for Project Management in a secure manner with comprehensive array of
options for control.
PDM or PLM?
On numerous occasions
companies, having already invested in ERP/ MRP/ CRM systems with high
levels of integration and customization, are unsure how an additional
investment in a PLM solution would be beneficial. The following
matrix of functionalities help understand the operational requirements
in a much better manner.

A closer look at the matrix helps us understand the differentiation
between PLM and PDM. It is common to find a PLM solution being
used predominantly for the PDM functionalities since the other facets
of PLM have either already been developed on an ERP/ MRP system or a
home-grown specialised toolset addresses most of the other aspects of
the PLM.
Security - Control and Empowerment
Streamlined and hierarchically structured organizations have workflows
delineated to ensure decisions are made at different levels
appropriately. However, decisions are made based on data
available and information flow pattern. Bottlenecks in data and
information flow necessarily result in time delays, deferred decisions
and sometimes, painfully, wrong decisions that would cost the company
dearly.
Empowering individuals to make decisions and ensuring ownership for
decisions made are central to an organizational success. In order
to necessitate this practice, it is imperative that data and
information flow are controlled on a need-to-know basis with
appropriate security features.
PDMWorks Enterprise provides a rich set of features for Data Security.

In the image above,
we can see the permissions that can be provided to a person in the
workflow at different levels depending on the functional requirements.
