eQube®-CLM - BYOL

eQube®-Data as a Service (DaaS) weaves an enterprise-wide Data Fabric and accelerates your Digital Transformation. eQube CLM Solution creates a bi-directional golden triangle between PLM, ERP, MES by integrating the three systems. With eQube®, customers are able to select business entities (like Part, BOMs, Process Plan, etc) to create a CDM, create APIs out of that, and use the APIs to build interfaces. We ship the entire package out of the box with 7 interfaces supported by the eQube® server underneath TM (Transformation Modeler) server, configured maps, processing pipelines, APIs, etc.
The interoperability of data through these 3 pillars of data exchange facilitates end to end manufacturing visibility, waste elimination, better production planning, enhanced adherence to production schedule, material management and inventory control as well as seamless distribution and logistics. By adopting CLM manufacturers gain a competitive advantage, make room for data collection, gain better reporting and analytics to improve their processes and remove bottlenecks if any, and take more informed decisions backed by data to drive better business outcomes. It enables enterprises to get PLM (Product Life Management), MES (Manufacturing Execution System), ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) systems to talk to each other and work in perfect harmony/ synchrony to enable a smarter and more efficient product manufacturing cycles. The de facto data flow touchpoints between the systems are:
PLM > MES: Parts, Tools, BOM, ECN, Std Operations, Process Planning, Catalog Notify ERP <> MES:
ERP > MES: Production Requests, Lot Creation, Inventory, Employee/ Resource Master
MES > ERP: Production Response, Equipment Status, Scrap, Downtime, Labor Hours PLM <> ERP:
PLM > ERP: Parts, mBOM, BoP/R
ERP > PLM: Employee/ Resource Master

The initial release focuses on integrating PLM with MES, specifically enabling seamless data exchange between Windchill (PLM) and Solumina (MES).
