PRODUCT DATA ON POINT THANKS TO PIM INTERFACE

SUITABLE DATA FOR YOUR CONFIGURATION

Almost 80 percent of industrial companies consider product configuration to be a key success factor. One of the foundations? Product data from the PIM system. With our PIM bridge, we bridge the gap between configuration, 3D visualization, CAD product catalogs, BIM and PIM. Once centrally maintained, product data is immediately updated in the configurator.

4PACE-CPQ-dark

BY DEFAULT FROM THE PIM

Create custom product configurations. Information, documents, and files are transferred from the PIM system to 4PACE CPQ via a standard interface.

4PACE-CADClick-dark

VIA WEB SERVICE INTO THE PIM

Data sheets and 2D/3D data can be imported into 4PACE CADClick and transferred to the PIM system. As part of product lifecycle management, you can regenerate data on a recurring or one-time basis and import it into your PIM.

SUCCESS FACTOR PIM INTERFACE

workflows

SEAMLESS

While the PIM system provides all the data, 4PACE CPQ defines the configuration rules. Using 4PACE CADClick enables visualization as well as automated CAD and BIM generation.

easy

EASY

Use your PIM system as the single source of truth for product data, images, and translations. Eliminate duplicate data maintenance and ensure that your information is always accurate, consistent, and up to date.

flexible

FLEXIBLE

We transfer and process product information from your PIM system using standard interfaces and formats or individually in our software.

experienced

EXPERIENCED

Benefit from our long-standing partnership with our PIM specialist crossbase – for excellent 3D configuration based on your product information.

IF STANDARD IS NOT ENOUGH

We take the product information from your PIM system and prepare it in our solutions – via a standardized interface or individually adapted to your needs. The data is imported into our configurator via standard APIs and, if required, prepared appropriately using special mapping functions.

CONFIGURATION TO CAD BIM OUTPUT

Use the comprehensive information from the PIM system to configure your products optimally. Define the configuration rules in 4PACE CPQ and reap the benefits with 4PACE CADClick from automated model generation and 3D visualization for further processing in CAD and BIM systems. In addition, the generated photorealistic images provide valuable content, such as for documentation and quotes.

LOGIC AND RULES IN THE CONFIGURATOR

The configurator serves as our rules and logic master. Product data from the PIM system is transferred to the configurator via an interface so it can be processed there into 4PACE CADClick formats. Configured components are enriched with attributes from the PIM and seamlessly transferred to CAD and BIM systems.

VISUALIZE CONFIGURED COMPONENTS

For perfect component connections, we first model 3D models, snap points and collision checks. Move, rotate and zoom the view or assemble components using drag-and-drop. During visualization, additional information is provided that can be called up from the PIM system on the fly or via a batch process.

YOUR PORTFOLIO IN THE CAD PRODUCT CATALOG

Transfer your product information and attributes seamlessly, e.g. specifically by product range and country. In our catalog solution, this data is prepared and processed to generate corresponding CAD and BIM data, including attributes, in common formats.

QUICKLY AVAILABLE BIM DATA

To provide BIM formats, we enrich our system-neutral CAD drawings with product features and texts from the PIM system via an interface. Defined BIM formats are then generated and assigned to the products in your PIM system.
