Abstract

The primary result of system integration for users in an enterprise should be an easier utilization of system. To support product development process through the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system in small and midsize manufacturing companies we considered integration of selected Product Data Management (PDM) functions. We developed suitable information models and made prototype implementation of models into the considered ERP system: ERPINS-M. Prototype implementation was then estimated according to the previously published metrics and compared with the ERP system before implementation. The proposed model could provide sufficient and well integrated support for product development process.
