Take Control of your Design Data with Teamcenter PLM
Teamcenter software’s document management solution enables knowledge workers using applications from CAD to Microsoft Office and everything in between to directly participate and contribute to the product lifecycle. Authors of spreadsheets, documents, presentations, diagrams and projects can interact with your product lifecycle management (PLM) environment from within their application of choice. Their involvement in this environment facilitates their contributions and enables supporting documents to be managed alongside engineering and manufacturing product information. Authors can use that product information within their documents and participate in multiple product-related processes. Teamcenter document management capabilities facilitate the standardization and management of documents and document processes, thereby enabling greater productivity and reduced cycle time in the product lifecycle.
