Aftermarket PIM solution - A data warehouse for all aftermarket data with access through multiple clients and Web Services
It is crucial for businesses to provide correct, high-quality information about the products to the market. But unfortunately, product data is usually found in data silos. Signifikant is an Aftermarket PIM solution for the aftermarket, that helps companies seamlessly consolidate product information and effectively present it through a user-friendly interface. We enable distributed workgroups to work on the same repository and share the same information, thereby eliminating duplications and re-work.
The Signifikant platform provides the base for correct, complete, and accessible information about product structures and product information, spare parts, e-shopping, service information, and user feedback.
The Signifikant platform, which is used to store and distribute information, is an advanced Data Warehouse for handling all information that covers your products and it can be integrated with the source data from any PLM/ERP/CAD/DMS system and connected to any ERP/WEB shop and Ticketing systems for more transactional integration. This data warehouse enables collaborative teamwork in a distributed organization and it provides a unified structure of all information and allows for real-time updates of non-structure information, as pricing availability, and other types of parts-related information.
Typical sources of aftermarket information are PLM solutions, ERP/CAD systems, different drawing systems, document management solutions, various Excel/CVS sheets, and XML-based information. Source systems can also be the marketing and communication departments providing information material to all partners along with the complete distribution chain Integration. The Signifikant Manager is used to import information from different sources as PLM, DMS, and ERP. The import process is managed, by an import function, and definitions are set in the Signifikant Manager. Each interaction with a source system can be specified and used, repeatedly, when updating information from a specific source.
