BERU implemented ENOVIA SmarTeam to coordinate product data between global production sites, automate release processes, and link CAD outputs directly to its ERP system. The solution eliminated manual data entry, reduced redundant file storage, and gave design and manufacturing teams access to current drawings and master data. The case study details the implementation approach, SAP toolkit usage, and measured improvements in data accuracy and process speed.

Key takeaways

ENOVIA SmarTeam served as the master system for CAD files before automatic transfer to ERP.

Automated release workflows replaced weekly manual updates and eliminated scanning and re-entry steps.

Multi-site data exchange was reduced to changed components only, cutting redundant storage.

SAP toolkit enabled standard ERP integration without custom reprogramming after each release change.

Design and manufacturing teams gained real-time access to released drawings and product structures.
