Propel announced a partnership with Razorleaf to provide advanced product data management (PDM) and enterprise resource planning (ERP) integration.
Razorleaf's standardized platform, CLOVER, will enable Propel customers to create a complete digital product thread that evolves with business needs to improve collaboration and drive faster product development.
Built on Salesforce, Propel unifies product definition, quality and commercialization by combining three software categories that have been historically siloed: product lifecycle management (PLM), quality management (QMS) and product information management (PIM).
This partnership combines Razorleaf’s experience in integrating and migrating product data across domains, including PDM, PLM, MES and ERP with Propel’s PVM platform.
With more than 50 connectors and steadily adding more, Razorleaf’s CLOVER platform integrates Propel’s PVM with PDM systems like SOLIDWORKS, Autodesk and Creo, as well as enterprise platforms like NetSuite, SAP and Oracle.
The companies expect the collaboration to create a digital thread, which ensures secure, traceable data flow across the product lifecycle, resulting in engineering data moving smoothly and securely across systems and improving traceability, version control and change management throughout the entire product lifecycle.
“Today’s manufacturers require seamless integration between their design data management tools, PLM systems and ERP,” Propel Chief Product Officer Eric Schrader said. “Our partnership allows customers to eliminate silos between engineering and downstream teams, providing a cohesive environment to review and accept design changes within a single product thread."
Partnership features:
Automated design data and ERP syncing with PLM
Greater visibility into engineering data across the product lifecycle
Reduced manual effort and data duplication
Minimized complexity and costs traditionally associated with systems integration
This partnership aligns with Propel’s commitment to provide an open, configurable ecosystem that supports modern product development.
