With the rapid advancement of information technology, manufacturing companies are undergoing significant transformations. Today, an increasing number of application software tools are being utilized within the manufacturing sector, including CAX (CAD, CAM, CAPP, and CAE), PLM (Product Lifecycle Management), and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning). These systems play crucial roles in product design, process management, and enterprise resource planning. However, they often operate in heterogeneous environments, storing data across separate physical systems. This fragmentation leads to challenges in sharing and integrating information between different departments and even across enterprises. To address these issues, this paper proposes a system integration approach based on PLM, aiming to facilitate seamless information sharing and collaboration among enterprises. The necessity of such integration lies in the fact that each system—whether it's CAX for design, PLM for managing product data, or ERP for resource management—has its own focus and data model. As a result, inconsistencies arise, leading to "information silos" that hinder efficient resource utilization. The integration framework proposed in this study outlines key components such as data definition, control, and the implementation of interoperability between heterogeneous systems. A web-based platform is essential for enabling cross-platform communication, and Web Services are chosen as the foundation for this integration due to their flexibility, independence, and ability to support diverse systems. Additionally, XML plays a critical role in standardizing data exchange formats, ensuring compatibility and ease of transmission. One of the most important aspects of system integration is the BOM (Bill of Materials) data, which must be consistently managed between PLM and ERP systems. By using an intermediate format like XML, both systems can exchange structured data efficiently. This approach not only enhances data accuracy but also supports scalability and adaptability in complex manufacturing environments. In conclusion, the integration of enterprise applications based on PLM is becoming an essential trend in the manufacturing industry. It enables better resource utilization, improves collaboration, and supports the overall digital transformation of enterprises. While there are still challenges to overcome—such as security and standardization—this integration model offers a promising path forward for modern manufacturing organizations.
