Electronic Parts Catalog
ERP PLM Parts Catalog Integration for Automatic Updates
Say goodbye to out-of-date catalogs, pricing issues and bad part orders. Say goodbye to wasting hundreds of hours and resources on manual catalog updates. Tweddle Group’s EPC (Electronic Parts Catalog) platform fully integrates your ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), and PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) with your parts catalog and ordering system, synchronizing data across inventory levels, pricing, product revisions and engineering changes. EPC automatically updates your electronic parts catalog, instantly incorporating changed or superseded parts.
Boosted Parts Sales and 3D Visuals Direct from CAD
Make it Easy to Find and Order the Right Parts
Time is money, especially when mechanical failure takes vehicles or machinery offline. EPC’s ERP and PLM integration builds its component imagery from the latest CAD data, direct from engineering, so technicians quickly find the parts they need. In addition to easy VIN or serial number search, users can identify parts visually, navigating detailed dimensional views. By removing friction from the process, orders go up, returns go down and First Time Fix Rates improve.
ERP API Integration for a Parts Catalog that's Always Up-to-Date
EPC’s ERP/PLM integration powers a daily, bi-directional data synchronization between inventory, engineering and its end user interface. Obsolescence management becomes an automated workflow. When parts, part designations or suppliers change, EPC updates itself with zero human intervention. EPC reflects real-time inventories, too, eliminating hassle and frustration for both technicians and fulfillment operations alike.
ERP and PLM Integrations for Increased Authoring Efficiency
EPC’s integrations benefit authors, as well. Because Tweddle Group’s EPC builds its catalog interface from existing electronic component data, sourcing and lifecycle tracking, it eliminates the resource hours needed for the catalog’s initial construction and the need for ongoing manual maintenance while increasing its quality and long-term accuracy. The result is an electronic parts catalog capable of boosting sales while lowering its cost to an OEM.
