For engineering, procurement and finance teams struggling with late cost insights and fragmented data, this solution enables early, accurate product costing. Teamcenter PCM provides a single platform for should-costing, design-to-cost, and CO2 footprint tracking and benchmarking - so you can reduce costs, improve margins and bring products to market faster with confidence.
Build detailed cost models based on materials, processes, and manufacturing parameters. You gain full transparency into what a product or component should cost, enabling better decision-making and supplier alignment.
Integrate cost insights directly into the design process. You can evaluate cost implications in real time and make smarter design choices that balance performance, quality, and cost from the start.
Run “what-if” scenarios to assess the impact of changes in materials, volumes, or sourcing strategies. You can predict cost outcomes and optimize decisions before committing to production.
Accurately estimate tooling and investment costs based on product geometry and production volumes. You gain better control over capital expenditures and avoid unexpected cost overruns.
Connect Teamcenter PCM with your PLM and ERP systems. You ensure consistent, up-to-date data across your organization, enabling a single source of truth for both engineering and financial information.
Balance cost, performance and sustainability from the earliest design stages. By integrating cost and carbon analysis across the full product lifecycle, you gain end-to-end visibility, enabling smarter design, sourcing and manufacturing decisions while improving margins and reducing emissions.
Gain full visibility into battery cost and CO₂ across the value chain—from raw materials to cell production. You can simulate design, material, and sourcing changes, optimize profitability, and accelerate quotations using battery-specific benchmarks and bottom-up costing.
Manage cost across highly complex products and long lifecycles. You gain detailed insight into materials, manufacturing processes, and supplier pricing, enabling accurate cost forecasting, better design decisions, and improved control over program profitability and risk.
Handle high volumes of complex part calculations with speed and accuracy. You can automate costing using parametric and bottom-up models, reduce calculation time by up to 95%, and gain full cost and CO₂ transparency - enabling faster decisions and better control over margins.
