Case Study: BASF Polyurethanes connects PLM and agile project management with CONTACT Software's CIM Database

Connecting PLM and agile project management

BASF Polyurethanes, a manufacturer of specialty plastics, sought a centralized platform to manage its global product development and project data while transitioning from a drawing-centric to an item-centric methodology. To address this challenge, the company partnered with CONTACT Software and leveraged its CIM Database PLM platform.

CONTACT Software implemented its CIM Database solution, which provided integrated project management, powerful document control, and secure data exchange with external partners. The results included accelerated processes, persistent project transparency, and a strong project cash flow. The successful migration to a web client significantly improved performance and adoption at remote locations. A company representative noted that CONTACT Software continues to generate new added value even after 30 years of use.
