PLM Implementation Services
PLM Implementation. First-Time-Right.
From solution definition to go-live, we keep business processes, data, integrations and users aligned — and check each stage before the next one depends on it.
- PLM-only since 2009
- 200+ enterprise programmes
- Aras & Dassault Systèmes partner
- ISO 27001 certified
The Real PLM Risk
Technology Rarely Causes PLM Projects to Fail. Execution Does.
PLM platforms can handle complex engineering and business processes. The hard part is making the right decisions early, keeping the solution aligned as it develops, and getting data, integrations and users ready before go-live.

Unproven data model
Decisions made without validating how the business will actually use the PLM data.
Customisation debt
Changes that solve today's requirement but make tomorrow's PLM harder to maintain.
Brittle integrations
Interfaces designed around individual requirements instead of a sustainable integration architecture.
Non-adoption
A technically successful implementation that users struggle to fit into everyday work.
Our Implementation Approach
A Check at Every Stage. Nothing Waits for UAT.
We validate decisions continuously instead of discovering problems at the end. Each stage has its own outputs, checks and acceptance criteria — so issues are found while they are still cheap to fix.

Built From Implementation Experience
The Unique Part Is Your Business. The Rest, We've Already Built.
Your processes, data and operating model are unique. But you shouldn't have to start every implementation from zero. Our products, accelerators and frameworks are reusable building blocks for the parts of PLM delivery we have solved before.
Custom where your business needs it
- Business processes
- Data model
- Operating model
- Your system landscape
Reusable where it makes sense

Platform Expertise
Three Platforms. One Standard of Delivery.
Our implementation approach is grounded in how your business works, not tied to a single PLM platform. We bring the same structured delivery to Aras Innovator, 3DEXPERIENCE and Teamcenter.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Aras Innovator, 3DEXPERIENCE and Teamcenter. Aras is our deepest practice — we have been an Aras partner since 2010. On 3DEXPERIENCE we are a Dassault Systèmes C&SI partner. On Teamcenter we configure and extend through BMIDE and integrate across the enterprise. Windchill work is migration and integration rather than implementation.
It depends on scope and platform, so every engagement starts by sizing the work honestly. For a sense of pace: one Aras programme put MVP-1 live in a month by leaning on out-of-the-box capabilities.
Both. For an implementation already under way, we assess it first, then stabilise, support and modernise it. Rescues and takeovers are a regular pattern for us.
Yes. Our Data Migration Framework has moved more than two billion records across 30+ enterprise programmes, into and out of Aras, Teamcenter, Windchill and ENOVIA — with revision history, structures and relationships intact, and automated reconciliation.
Yes. We connect PLM to ERP, MES, CAD and ALM on our Integration Framework — configuration-driven, with prebuilt connectors, monitoring and governance, so interfaces survive the next upgrade.
We solve through configuration first and customise only where it earns its keep, judged against the cost it adds at the next upgrade. On Aras, configuration is also checked against a library of 90+ best-practice rules before anything is promoted.
Yes. Hypercare comes first, then we run the platform through Application Maintenance & Support — the same team, without a handoff.
