3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS Implementation Services
As a trusted partner of SOLIDWORKS, Our Customers rely on our expertise to implement the 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS. Over a period of time, we have developed a set of implementation with the best practices based on ensuring Customer Success which we summarized here.
Implementation Project Evaluation
We work with the Key Participants to conduct a preliminary evaluation of all the aspects of the project.
This involves correlating project requirements to available capabilities and determining if any Customizations are required.
Project Execution
Generally, the journey of the Project execution follows the Value roadmap leading to the Go Live:
- Server Deployment with Infrastructure evaluation of the number of users, disparate locations, etc.
- Client deployment as per the roles and apps available with the Licenses
- Main Team Training
- Configuration
- Customizations
- Integration
- Data Migration
- User Acceptance Testing
- Go Live
The Importance of a Well-Planned Data Migration
Any critical 3DEXPERIENCE SOLIDWORKS Implementation would be incomplete without a full description of data migration steps and issues.
An effective data migration strategy includes the following steps:
- Legacy Data:
- Type of Data involved, CAD, Non-CAD, File/Folder based, any hard copies? Metadata?
- Data Accessibility:
- Availability of all data sources? 3rd party system access? Missing Data?
- Data Import/Export:
- Create rule-based schema, mapping logic, identify data storage contexts
- Schedule and Plan for Data Load and Time:
- Data will need correction
- Eliminate
- Duplicated part numbers per file
- Duplicated file names
- Duplicated files with different names
- Missing or incorrect file attributes
- Missing or incorrect file associations or links
- File revision not current
- Non-current parts in current assemblies
- Non-compliance revision/versioning scheme
- Missing mandatory attributes in source system
Due Diligence and Testing
Our implementation teams ensure due diligence and testing as teams install and test the configuration out of the box.
A suitable Sandbox environment is created simulating 2-4 test iterations as required based on the data volume and the product development workflows.
These steps lead to appropriate go live planning while training the users followed by the final production migration. Testing at every phase is essential for the project success.
Conclusion: With immaculate planning and testing, implementing, and migrating to our solution would go smoothly. We understand every detail to make sure the implementation is executed in a transparent manner.
