Problem Statement
6
GE Oil & Gas Part Catalogs Management
• Metadata and transactional data not available for part search/selection
• Manual and cumbersome process to Search/Create standard parts in PLM (BoM and CAD)
• Classification in PLM cannot manage complex rules to generate smart codes...
need to create upfront all potential instances
40% Standardized & commercial parts
CAD
Parts selection and creation time reduction and data reuse increase
Project Goal
GE Oil & Gas Part Catalogs Management | March 8th 2016

The Designer searches for a component starting from its attributes and, if never used before, creates BOM code and CAD Model in one click
…to Digital Catalogs
• All standardized & commercial codes
managed through a rule engine
• Functional Searches (based on Attributes)
• Geometrical Searches
• Geometric/Metadata Part Comparison
• BOM and CAD model Description dynamically created

What’s Next
GE Proprietary Information © 2016 General Electric Company - All rights reserved
The road to a Strategic Part Selection process
15
AVEVA® Instrumentation Interface – to create Instrumentation datasheet starting from a Digital
Catalog
Rulestream® Interface – to configure complex systems starting from classified Standard
components
A new Part Selection Process based on information coming from different data sources (supporting
“informed decisions”)… data federation
Enable part selection process for “Derived Codes”, including creation and management of datasheets
from templates

Lesson Learned

Lesson Learned
17
The transition between the old and the new process for Standard Components is critical (impossible to «turn the key»
or plan a massive data migration)
The selection of an Out Of The Box solution doesn’t mean it is painless... need to customize the software solution according
to business requirements / existing processes / interfaces
Rigor of rules and conventions is a critical aspect when we speak about catalogs and classification (in terms of data
meaning and classification structure)
It is difficult to accelerate the creation of part catalogues with a single partner with both IT skills and product knowledge
