Future Tech Drives Success with PLM and NX Upgrade at Maruti Suzuki India:
Maruti Suzuki India, one of the leading automotive manufacturers in the country, was facing critical challenges in their Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and CAD tools management. Continuous upgrades were required to meet evolving business needs, manual intervention was needed to manage data from multiple sites, and there was no single source of truth, resulting in inconsistent management of PLM and CAD tools. Seeking a solution, Maruti Suzuki India turned to Future Tech, a trusted technology partner with a deep understanding of the domain and a focus on solution adoption by users.
Future Tech implemented Siemens solutions to streamline Maruti Suzuki India’s PLM and CAD tools management. This included integration of Teamcenter with Catia/Creo, implementation of a schedule manager, TCRA (Tool Change Request Automation), BOM (Bill of Material) management, and multisite management. These solutions aimed to address the challenges Maruti Suzuki India was facing and optimize their design and manufacturing processes.
The results of the project were remarkable. Design productivity of users increased by 70%, enabling faster and more efficient design processes. The first-time-right release of design versions to manufacturing and vendors minimized errors and rework, saving valuable time and resources. Through the use of automated scripts, the time required for managing and administering systems was reduced by 200%, leading to improved efficiency. The right release of design data and Bill of Material to manufacturing and vendors resulted in significant cost savings, eliminating unnecessary expenses.
The success of the project can be attributed to Future Tech’s deep understanding of the domain and their unwavering focus on solution adoption by users. They collaborated closely with Maruti Suzuki India at every step of the implementation process, providing continuous L1 (Level 1) and L2 (Level 2) support in all areas. Their expertise in PLM and NX upgrade, combined with their commitment to customer success, ensured that Maruti Suzuki India achieved their desired outcomes and overcame their business challenges.
In conclusion, Future Tech’s partnership with Maruti Suzuki India in their PLM and NX upgrade project resulted in significant improvements in their design and manufacturing processes.
