PROSTEP OpenPDM SAP Integration for 3DEXPERIENCE

A solution by: PROSTEP
Application domain: Mechanical Design
Solution Overview
The PROSTEP OpenPDM SAP Integration for 3DEXPERIENCE seamlessly connects PLM and ERP processes between the Dassault Systèmes 3DEXPERIENCE platform and SAP (R/3 ECC and S/4HANA). Independent of the engineering domain in CATIA, DELMIA, or SIMULIA, the integration synchronizes product data bi-directionally to ensure consistent lifecycle information across system boundaries.
The solution is built on the PROSTEP Digital Thread Platform with its proven OpenPDM integration engine. Connectors use official APIs from Dassault Systèmes and SAP, supporting both standard and customized object models. P&O security restrictions are automatically respected.
Data synchronization runs fully automated in the background. The built-in BPMN process engine allows flexible configuration of business rules; integrated process monitoring provides full transparency for administrators and key users.
Functionality overview:
- Bi-directional synchronization based on the proven OpenPDM integration platform
- BPMN-based process engine with integrated monitoring
- Engineering objects: Parts, Representations, Documents incl. versioning
- Manufacturing objects: Routings, Work Instructions, Resources incl. versioning

The Munich-based CAIQ GmbH – claiming “computer-aided creativity” – originates from a merger between the former FCMS GmbH and the well-known CAE service provider ISKO engineers AG, effective from July 1st, 2020. Our engineering staff of about 50 experts represents more than two decades of practical industry experience with focus on the German automotive OEMs, suppliers and machinery. Established business areas are comprehensive CAE services, engineering process solutions including simulation management (data, processes, workflows, and projects) as well as the technical focus of former FCMS GmbH on CATIA V5 improvements and enhancements as a long time Dassault adopter partner for the CATIA development platform. Our premium software product FCM – Fast Concept Modeller – as an embedded series of software modules, allows CATIA V5 users to seamlessly and associatively connect to any CAE-Tool and thus offer a completely integrated CAD-CAE-process solution. Beyond that, large shape changes may be performed without any loss of accuracy. This is a specific FCM-USP, which overcomes the classical barrier of higher flexibility versus lower accuracy and allows changes previously limited to concept design to be applied in late stages of product development. With that technology a uniquely powerful parametrical geometry master model enables users to derive any possible CAE model automatically. The market USP for this CAD-CAE-bridged virtual development process is the fact, that both the origin and the result of any functional evaluation of your product always are native CATIA geometry models. Newly, automatically created large shape and topology changes can be addressed for large scale parameter optimization.For further information please see also www.caiq.eu
