HELiOS – The PDM/PLM system for safe corporate processes
Today, product data and document management (PDM), as well as the safety and traceability of processes play an essential role in enterprises throughout all branches of industry. Products are created in working environments where complex dependencies, huge amounts of data and decisions of many departments have to be taken into account. In addition, the knowledge that is created in the course of the product lifecycle does often not only originate from various departments of your company, such as Engineering, Sales, Production or Marketing, but also from locations outside of your company, which can be distributed all over the world.

HELiOS, our software solution for Product Data Management (PDM), enables an effortless handling of even the largest amounts of data. State-of-the-art PDM functions ensure a safe management and productive use of the corporate knowledge. Whether E-mails, production drawings or various documentation – all data and documents created during the product development process are centrally managed and are readily available at any time. Processes such as access rights control, version control, document distribution, work instructions, order transactions etc. can be controlled with HELiOS in a safe and precise manner. In this way, the communication across departments and locations can be improved significantly – with positive effects on the complete product development process.
