Let’s hear their story………


Who is ProNova Solutions?

ProNova Solutions is a medical device start-up company developing the next generation proton therapy system.


How did we get here?

Q1: How do we manage our 3D-CAD files?Q2: How will we manage change control?Q3: Now how do we connect to our ERP

system?

The Realization: We should think long term about the real problem of product lifecycle management and scalability.


Why did we choose Agile PLM?

Key Decision Criteria– A highly configurable solution with intuitive

structures and workflows– An ITEM based system for passing BOM

information to an ITEM based mid-range ERP.– An FDA certifiable solution – proven industry

footprint– A full suite of modules to support our current and

future needs


ProNova Solutions

Key themes– Agile PLM right sized for the Business Model– ProNova commitment: Do it right from the

beginning– Minimize the toolset - PLM to ERP connection with

1 tool instead of 2– Collaborative design - Manufacturing, Engineering

and IT working together– “Together, Let’s build the best PLM implementation

on the planet.”


ProNova Solutions

• Medical Device Company– 10 Agile PC Licenses– 5 Agile EC Licenses for SolidWorks CAD– Installation/implementation/training from ZWS

• Total Investment - $108k

• Time to Value – Managing Solid Works CAD data with Agile EC and

publishing Bom’s in 6 weeks
