Siemens PLM Software TECNOMATIX Digital manufacturing solutions helping companies make smarter decisions to boost productivity, lower costs and meet quality targets siemens.com/tecnomatix Smarter decisions powering manufacturing productivity Shifting business factors such as the demand for environmentally-friendly products, more sustainable production and increasingly competitive global mar- kets require companies to constantly adapt and improve their business strate- gies. Launching faster, getting more from their capital investments and deliv- ering quality products are always at the core of growth and prosperity even in demanding economic times. In the past, innovative products were enough to succeed, but in today’s world of unprecedented cost and regulatory pressures, successful manufacturers know they must leverage production capacity as a strategic advantage not simply as the cost of doing business.

Backed by Siemens’ leader- ship in delivery, with over five million Teamcenter users worldwide, Tecnomatix digital manufacturing solutions are built on the most widely deployed PLM solution in the marketplace. Enterprise-scalable, The entire Siemens PLM Software portfolio is built on an open architecture, enabling open lifecycle Tecnomatix solutions to integrate with any product data management (PDM) system. foundation This flexibility translates into more cost-effective deployments and unparalleled flexibility for integration with other key enterprise systems. Unparalled data manage- The data and process management solution for Tecnomatix provides visibility and process ment and control accountability between plant, process, resource and product configurations and collec- tively supports real-time enforced consistency and reconciliation during change. This reduces confusion and complexity, delineates responsibility and mitigates the risk of ris- ing costs during new product introductions and inevitable changes to the production environment. Industry-specific Tecnomatix solutions are geared to support and improve processes specific to a variety of value frameworks industries, including automotive, heavy equipment, aerospace, defense, high-tech elec- tronics, consumer products and heavy machinery. Tecnomatix makes it easy for organiza- tions to implement digital manufacturing solutions leveraging their industry’s best prac- tices. Within the Tecnomatix knowledge management environment, organizations can readily configure data structures, workflows and business rules to suit their needs. 6 Tecnomatix advantage Why it matters PLM for manufacturing Other manufacturing planning solutions lack either the application coverage to improve the entire manufacturing cycle or the knowledge management underpinnings to leverage upstream lifecycle information. Tecnomatix is unique because it brings together a com- prehensive suite of industry-leading, workflow-based applications covering all of the domains influenced by your manufacturing requirements. Efficient planning Tecnomatix leverages the Teamcenter single source of lifecycle knowledge, which creates a foundation you can use to rationalize and leverage engineering assets and optimize/ synchronize manufacturing deliverables to reduce complexity and accelerate your take- to-market innovations. Optimized systems Tecnomatix allows you to tie your factory planning tools together with simulation tools, which in turn facilitates understanding of the true work flow and material flow for a spe- cific factory configuration. This approach enables you to interactively analyze multiple manufacturing processes and layout scenarios,
