Case Study: Procter & Gamble accelerates production line development with CADENAS PARTsolutions

How digital product catalogs optimize development process of production lines in this case study

Procter & Gamble, the global consumer goods company, needed a faster, more reliable way for engineers and designers to find and manage standard and purchased parts for production line development. Before working with CADENAS PARTsolutions, the company relied on an internal parts library with limited search capabilities and manual internet research, which led to duplicate parts, extra new component creation, and time-consuming manual data entry.

Using CADENAS PARTsolutions Strategic Parts Management, P&G gained access to more than 700 manufacturer catalogs, intelligent search, automated transfer of part master data and multi-CAD files, and direct integration with Teamcenter, Solid Edge, SOLIDWORKS, NX, and SAP. CADENAS helped P&G reduce manual effort, improve data quality, speed up parts availability, and cut administrative work from about one hour per component to only a few seconds, while also supporting higher reuse of existing parts and better end-of-life visibility.
