TriMech has developed a 12-phased approach to migrating data from one system to another. Typically, with PLM to PDM, we start off with a detailed analysis of the database. Then, we move on to the definition of what you are looking to do with your data. The complexity comes with all the features of a PLM system that a PDM system inherently does not have. Items, for instance, are records in the systems that may have a file, many files or no file associated with it. These have to be converted to a file-based system. There are several other types of PLM features that will need to be addressed.

Customers don't only come to TriMech to make a purchase, but also for advice and guidance to figure out the right solution that fits their business and meets their goals.
