Case Study: Stiebel Eltron reduces engineering change effort by 40% with CONTACT Software's CIM Database

CIM Database as a global impulse generator for all PLM processes

Stiebel Eltron, a provider of building technology and green energy solutions, faced the challenge of integrating its CAD data management and ERP systems to ensure company-wide availability of all product data and to establish a central PLM system for efficient project management. To address this, they partnered with CONTACT Software to implement the CIM Database PLM solution as their leading IT system.

CONTACT Software implemented CIM Database to act as a central platform, integrating TDM and SAP ERP systems while providing comprehensive document and CAD data management. The solution also managed complex engineering change and project workflows. This resulted in a company-wide information platform that reduced the effort required for engineering change processes by approximately 40 percent and provided automatic synchronization of product data with SAP.
