PLM and ERP Integration Enhances Workflow Efficiency

28 April 2026

Technia, part of the Product Lifecycle Management division, develops and delivers solutions that simplify processes, support responsible innovation, and shorten the time to market in product development. Technia offers a combination of partner solutions, its own complementary software, services, training and support for the entire Dassault Systèmes product portfolio.

Technia has used its own cloud service and real-time solution ERP Connec- tor to help USA-based customer Tractian improve the integration between their ERP and PLM systems. Tractian is a technology company that develops and offers AI-powered industrial maintenance technology and machine condition monitoring.

The product development team at Tractian had previously been using its PLM platform in the cloud without integrating it with the company’s ERP system. Tractian’s internal workflow relied partly on manual processes, with employees saving PLM data in the ERP system and forwarding the material to colleagues by e-mail or file transfer. This created bottlenecks in the company’s processes and increased the risk of errors. Technia’s solution enabled the systems to be seamlessly integrated, automating data entry and document sharing from PLM to ERP, reducing manual work and supporting both one-way and two-way information exchange.
