Eliminate Retyping of Information Between Engineering & ERP
Many engineering departments tend to generate islands of disconnected information. This includes information such as bill of materials stored in disconnected spreadsheets. Not having bill of materials information stored in a centralized database normally leads to the manual retyping of BOM information into an ERP / Business system.
The Global Edge Engineering Assistant provides an innovative solution to the retyping of information between systems. This starts with a direct interface to 3D CAD software that automatically stores bill of materials information from a 3D CAD model assembly into an "Engineering & Manufacturing Data Warehouse". This process not only stores BOM information in a centralized location, but the capability of the Global Edge Engineering Assistant filters information to eliminate duplication.
The Global Edge Engineering Assistant includes a "Configurable ERP Interface" that provides a dynamic, real-time connection between engineering and ERP to eliminate the retyping of bill of materials information, which includes the following features and benefits:
