The CNEXT expertise involved
We support vehicle manufacturers and suppliers with PLM and variant management, ALM for embedded systems, MES and APS for production lines, as well as ERP.
Our consultants provide consulting, business-side project assistance (AMOA), integration and application maintenance and training.
The role of each building block
- PLM: product definition, bills of materials, changes and configuration.
- ALM: requirements, systems engineering, software and traceability through to testing.
- MES: production execution and traceability, line quality and performance.
- APS: constraint-based planning and scheduling, equipment connectivity.
- ERP: purchasing, inventory, manufacturing orders, costs and business management.
Example assignments
- Variant and diversity management in PLM
- Requirements and embedded systems (ALM)
- MES and production line monitoring
- Planning and scheduling (APS)
Our approach
We help teams structure product diversity without multiplying bills of materials, and link the product definition to production lines. In a sector with tight deadlines, we favour solutions close to the standard and phased roll-outs, line by line or plant by plant.
Every assignment begins with understanding your processes and the constraints of the automotive sector. We then propose a realistic roadmap and support you as needed: one-off expertise, project support or reinforcement of your teams and those of your integrator. Our consultants combine business and technical expertise and are proficient in the leading solutions on the market.
