Role in the Lifecycle
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyIn The Beginning…
UGS/Delphi configures hardware, software and network in preparation of onsite pilot of Teamcenter Community 5.2
Demonstrate TcC “day in the life” solution to all divisions
Pilots conducted with Powertrain Systems, Electronics & Safety and Medical Systems

Delphi TcC Pilot Use Cases
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyElectronics & Safety Design Reviews: Use Case #1
Before Teamcenter Community
Unable to effectively hold on-line conference meetings with Mexico & Asia Pacific region
Tools such as NetMeeting and Meeting Center were painfully slow
Cannot effectively share OpenGL applications such as shaded 3D CAD models with suppliers
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyElectronics & SafetyDesign Reviews: Use Case #1
Using Teamcenter Community
Fits the immediate need in our situation to conduct live on-line business in China
TcC application software which is installed on individual conference participant’s computers allows the application sharing sessions to proceed at a faster pace
Suppliers can effectively share shaded 3D CAD models including dynamic rotation
More powerful and faster transfer of large files during application sharing sessions than other similar products
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyElectronics & SafetyPilot Results
E&S expect a savings of at least 2 international trips per tooling program or $10,000 per trip per person
“TcC is a critical tool enabling us to take full advantage of off-shore, low cost tooling suppliers.”
David J. Post
Delphi, Supplier Technical Development Manager
“There has been increasing usage of Teamcenter Community Application Sharing tool here in Singapore. One of my colleagues is using the application bi-weekly with vendors and Kokomo from his home, the RSE team he is with finds it helpful to conference from home rather than staying late at night in the office.”
Michael Chung
Senior Engineer, MCAD/CAE, Electronics & Safety
Delphi Automotive Systems Singapore Pte Ltd
DRAFT – For Discussion Only
Before Teamcenter Community
Cumbersome, manual security
Difficult to find and transfer documents
Using Teamcenter Community
Is a secure standards repository for users worldwide
Increased Security
Login and password protected
Workspaces - Only have access if you have permissions
Shared Documents in multiple workspaces
Permission folders - Users only have access if they have permissions
Routing documents to other team members with proper permissions
Site Map to maneuver multiple levels of workspaces
Powertrain SystemsBill of Test: Use Case #2
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyMedical Systems Use Case #3
Before TcC Supplier A would send data to
Delphi user Delphi user would then alert supplier
B data is available Supplier B is 9 hours ahead of
Delphi user and would already have left for the day
Lost one day per transaction
Supplier BSupplier A
Using TcC
The constraint of having an intermediary is removed from process
Includes security for data access and data encryption
Users receive email notification when data is available
Suppliers A and B can collaborate in real time
Teamcenter Community
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyProduct & Service SolutionsSoftware Issue Tracking: Use Case #4
Before Teamcenter Community External sites logged issues from outside Delphi Security - restricts
external user access to submitted issues Developers needed a tool to collaborate with external suppliers
on product design
Using Teamcenter Community Software issue tracking system for Delphi and suppliers
Tracks software issues throughout the software development process.
Track multiple software projects on multiple sites. Configured TcC list to map the desired process
Track the number of issues open, closed, bug, etc. Groups issues into levels of severity
Also used for Supplier data communication (similar to use case #3)
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyIndependent Aftermarket: Use Case #5
Before Teamcenter Community
Needed a tool to collaborate on documents between internal and external resources
Needed Security to restrict external user access to specific documents
No existing solution in place
Using Teamcenter Community
Collaboration on documents between internal resource and external resources
Security restricts external user access to specific documents
Able to reconfigure access as requirements change
Change Control: Document changes log (date/time and person)
Delphi Teamcenter Community Production Implementation Project
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyFrom Pilot To Production…
Pilots are a success!
Result: Delphi selects TcC as collaboration tool
Teamcenter Community Rental agreement on pilot hardware in use
Delphi project initiated to purchase licenses and install Teamcenter Community 6.0 SP1 on Delphi hardware

DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyProject Begin State - May 2006
Licenses
More costly to rent than own
Rental licenses end date was March 31, 2006
Vendor-supplied hardware and support
Non-production equipment (slow performance & accessibility)
External support (non-standard, not integrated with Delphi Active Directory, no power backup)
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyProject Scope
Consolidated Teamcenter Community license agreement
Internal Delphi-owned servers to provide secure hosting of design reviews & data sharing
Migration of pilot data to new production servers
Server administration, backup and DRP
Divisions in scope:
Powertrain Systems
Electronics & Safety
Product & Service Solutions
Medical Systems, Independent Aftermarket, Consumer Electronics
DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyBenefits
Business Benefits
Enables Lean Engineering Processes
Secure Data Transfer (Delphi-to-Supplier and Supplier-to-Supplier)
Better Supplier Collaboration (Application Sharing, Automated E-mail Notification When Changes Occur)
List Roll-up Capability on Reporting and Measuring Projects
IT Benefits
Delphi-owned Hardware
Standard Configuration
Easier to Support
Standard AD Security

DRAFT – For Discussion OnlyElectronics & SafetyTool Design Reviews
Extensive use for tool design reviews including cross functional participants simultaneously from multiple global locations.
Example: E&S issued a PO from Mexico Tech Center for 4 plastic molding tools. Every day for a week our team had on-line reviews for the tool design. Participants included a China supplier, the Mexico Technical Center, Mexico Manufacturing site, U.S. Tool support. The team covered all aspects of tool design. At end of meeting the tool design is approved and can go right into the manufacturing stage. This review was done without international travel or time loss from the office for many engineers. The quick approval process allows the supplier to maximize their time efficiency.
