About this webinar
Unlock the full potential of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform with a Unified Product Structure (UPS).
Unified Product Structure (UPS) transforms how organisations unify CAD and BOM data, enabling seamless collaboration and boosting efficiency. However, migrating to 3DEXPERIENCE UPS is more than just a technical upgrade — it requires careful planning, the right tools, and proven strategies for a smooth and successful transition.
This session walks through what UPS is and where its value sits, the migration scenarios and challenges that come up in practice, the elements that decide whether a UPS migration succeeds, and a live demonstration of SteepGraph’s ETL-based migration platform.
What you will learn
- What Unified Product Structure (UPS) is and its key benefits — a harmonised CAD and BOM structure in 3DEXPERIENCE, with dedicated user experiences for different roles, and how the Designer Central (DEC) data model differs from POWER’BY (UPS).
- The key scenarios and challenges in the migration process: CAD data migration from Designer Central, non-DS CAD data such as NX and CREO, and merging CAD BOM with EBOM into a single product structure.
- The migration strategies and modes: top-down versus bottom-up loading, and full data migration, on-demand (project-by-project) migration and continuous migration — including where each one fits.
- The essential elements for a successful UPS data migration: early business involvement, migration strategy, process mapping, target system awareness, CAD data quality, and the cutover and time planning behind the road map.
- How SteepGraph’s ETL-based data migration can simplify the transition, shown live: the ETL platform’s extractor, mapping engine and loader, dashboards and logging, and a failed-assembly and bulk data load walkthrough.
