TPM is a scalable, secure, intranet and internet based solution for the automation and management of CAD data exchange process between suppliers and customers. TPM automates the translation, packaging and transmission of product data to help companies who rely upon multiple sites, partners, and suppliers to execute their product development process.
Companies needing to exchange large volumes of sensitive product data, have to first
ensure that the data is in the correct form in order to support global collaboration. Data
exchange is further complicated by a wide spectrum of local and regional requirements, standards, protocols, and locations for storing data.
To overcome these challenges, organizations frequently employ resource intensive manual processes and a variety of software applications and systems. Today's fragmented data exchange solutions do not provide end-to-end data traceability and security, potentially compromising an organization's most valuable assets - its intellectual property.
Being modular in design makes TPM equally suited to local as well as enterprise deployments that can be scaled as needs evolve. Building on proven technology and utilizing industry standards, best-in-class CAD and PDM systems are fully supported.
