How the work flows

Trigger: A collaborative engineering project is initiated or a manufacturing contract is signed requiring an external supplier to view specific component data.

  1. Identify required part data, CAD models, and bills of materials for the supplier
  2. Define role-based access controls and intellectual property security restrictions
  3. Provision supplier user accounts within the PLM or supplier portal
  4. Publish or synchronize the approved part data to the shared external environment
  5. Audit supplier access logs to ensure compliance with data sharing agreements
  6. Revoke or update data access upon project completion or contract modification

Outcome: The supplier actively utilizes secure, restricted access to the designated product data, CAD models, and bills of materials required for their scope of work.
