Engineering and Business System Integration & Interoperability​

CAD-to-CAD Integration

Neilsoft develops integration and interoperability solutions that enable engineering applications to exchange and utilize design information across different CAD and engineering environments.

Our capabilities include the development of interfaces and interoperability solutions for engineering applications, including:

• Inventor ETO integration
• Revit integration
• Navisworks and e-PM integration
• Interface development for interoperability products
• Integration between engineering software platforms such as Navisworks and SolidWorks
• Custom application development for engineering data exchange and interoperability

These solutions help connect engineering applications and enable more efficient workflows across heterogeneous design environments.

CAD-to-PLM Integration

Neilsoft enables the integration of engineering design applications with PLM and data management systems to improve the management, accessibility and flow of engineering information.

Our experience includes:

• SolidEdge to Vault Integration
• Vault Professional Integration with Customer-specific File Management Systems
• Vault Manufacturing Integration with Autodesk Buzzsaw
• Data Migration from Meridian to Vault Manufacturing

Our integration solutions are designed around the specific engineering processes and data ecosystem of each organization, supporting the efficient movement and management of engineering information across CAD and PLM environments.

PLM-to-ERP Integration

Connecting PLM and ERP systems is essential for enabling the efficient flow of product and engineering information between engineering and business functions.

Neilsoft has experience in developing integrations including:

• Vault to SAP Integration
• Vault to BAAN Integration

These integrations can support real-time information exchange between PLM and ERP systems, improve communication between engineering and enterprise functions, and reduce duplicate and repeat data entry across applications.
