 Scope
Understanding the different features and
tools available in ENOVIA
SMARTEAM® and implementing them.

ENOVIA SMARTEAM IS A PRODUCT
LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT
SOLUTION SOFTWARE

5
PRODUCTLIFE CYCLE
MANAGEMENT

Managing the entire lifecycle of a product from its
conception, through design and manufacture, to
service and disposal.

PLM integrates people, data, processes and business
systems

Provides a product information backbone for
companies and their extended enterprise.

INTEGRATION WITH MODELING
SOFTWARES
PROBLEMS

PLM solution softwares
not easily integrate able
with CAD softwares

Different softwares usage
created problems

Difficulties for
Engineering based
product design

E.g. A-380 delay
9
INTEGRATION WITH MODELING
SOFTWARES
SOLUTION

Easily integrated with
CATIA, SOLID EDGE
ETC

Allows easy check in and
check out from CATIA
directly

Saves time

Files are directly opened
in CATIA
10
INTEGRATION WITH MODELING
SOFTWARES

Promotes
standardization

Also integrate able with
MS office

So it provides a one click
solution to PLM problem

11
EDITORIAL OPTIONS
Problems

Product manager (editor) has little control over the
security of database.

No or little control over the level of access given to
different actors.

Under qualified personnel might make changes in the
design.

E.g. a junior analyst might work on and change a vital
part.

12
EDITORIAL OPTIONS
Solution

Full access to editor at all
levels

Notification before every
major task

Decide the level of access

Part can’t be released
without his approval

Create different vaults

13
 Example Full access

PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
Problems

One of the most difficult parts of production
process

Multiple projects

Misinformation can cause serious errors

High cost associated with manual PM.

Low program development efficiency

Low rate of production

15
PROGRAM MANAGEMENT
SOLUTION

Multiple projects

Timelines and tasks

Resource management

Bottlenecks identified and remove

Tracking and monitoring of multiple concurrent
projects

16
PROGRAM MANAGEMENT

Provides information using various charts like Gantt
charts etc.

Helps in decision making

Allows us to use existing project knowledge and
database

Provides project update like Draft, Initiated, In Work,
Completed, Approved, On Hold, Canceled.

17
EXAMPLE

18
BOM (BILL OF MATERIAL)
MANAGEMENT
PROBLEMS

Non availability of BOM at any specific time

Over stocking

Under stocking

Difficulty in decision making

19
BOM (BILL OF MATERIAL)
MANAGEMENT

A bill is generated at the
completion of each part.

Shows the maturity of product
at any given time which ensures
appropriate stocking

Accelerates production process

Saves time and reduces errors

Allows comparison of BOM of
two parts

Shares information with
suppliers

Ensures up to date collaboration
with suppliers

20
BOM (BILL OF MATERIAL)
MANAGEMENT

21
MULTI-SITE
Problem

Managing data at several
remote sites
simultaneously, without
compromising data
integrity

Secure data transfer

Need to transfer large
chunks of data, but the
connection is too slow,
especially when large CAD
assemblies are involved

22
MULTI-SITE

Need to have
information available
and accessible all the
time, but the WAN
connection is highly
unreliable

Users find themselves
unable to work when the
connection between sites
fails

23
MULTI-SITE
Solution

provides us Safe product
data management
solution

Maintains Database Data
integrity by using Oracle
Replication functionality

Maintains Vault Data
integrity by using
RepliWeb functionality
24
MULTI-SITE

Periodic DB synchronization which ensures that all
sites are identical

Object ownership mechanism within the data
model

Password encryption

Data transfer encryption

Allows multi tasking

Faster data transfer

Allows working even when the system is down

25
MULTI-SITE

Periodic file & meta-data
replication

Lifecycle permitted on
local site

Users can view files from
a remote site

Lifecycle on object from
a remote site is
permitted if given
ownership
26
MULTI-SITE

All objects owned by the
site can be freely used

Users can view or copy
only those objects that
are not owned by their
site

Replication will update
remote sites with
changes after connection
is re-established

27
COMMUNITY WORKSPACE
PROBLEM

Customers are integral part
of production cycle.

Customer feedback

Involving customers in
product development

Limited access to
customers

Feedback needed to reduce
cost of changes

28
COMMUNITY WORKSPACE
SOLUTION

Allows Project-oriented, product
information sharing across the supply chain

No compromise on technical inegrity

Viewer option

Through e-mail

Link provided on SMARTEAM

Creates organized database regarding
customer feedback

29
COMMUNITY WORKSPACE

Publishes data from
SMARTEAM which then
generates an e-mail
invitation

Receives e-mail invitation

Accesses community
folder from invitation

Makes changes in the
product

Reviews changes

The process continues

30
WORK FLOW
PROBLEMS

Production processes are usually linked to each other

Usually processes are interlinked with one another

Delay in one process might cause delay in another

The workers are often unaware of the previous and
following process

Work flow is difficult to analyze and change

31
WORKFLOW
Solution

Provides easy to use flow
chart graphical designer

Provides alternative work
path

Tracks the workflow

System alerts for work
delay

Provides worker with
information on
forthcoming processes.

CONCLUSION

ENOVIA SMARTEAM is a complete PLM solution
software whose benefits are innumerable and
therefore it should be used by all major producers in
PAKISTAN.

49
RECOMMENDATIONS

Currently demo version of SMARTEAM is installed a
full version should be installed

SMARTEAM and CATIA should be installed in more
computers. Currently they are installed in only 2 PCs

Future students should be encouraged to continue
work on SMARTEAM and learn more about it.

An online course is available. To learn more about
SMARTEAM this course may be taken.
