PLM/CAD integration
Seamless connection between development and production
Close integration of development and production processes is essential in toolmaking. With the PLM/CAD integration of APplus, you have direct access to all development and production data. This enables seamless collaboration between your design and production teams.
Thanks to the real-time synchronization of all data, changes are recorded and transmitted immediately. This reduces errors and misunderstandings, speeds up product development and ensures smooth production. You can also manage complex assemblies efficiently and access the latest design plans at any time. With the PLM/CAD integration of APplus, your tool shop remains flexible and responsive, giving you a decisive competitive advantage.
Growing parts lists
Flexible planning, customizable parts lists
In toolmaking, changes are often unavoidable after the quotation phase. The detailed structure of the tools is frequently adapted and expanded. Product-related parts lists must therefore remain flexible.
This is no problem with our ERP software for toolmaking. APplus offers you the option of working with growing parts lists. Additional data can be entered successively so that the design plans are continuously updated and finalized. This flexibility ensures that you can react to customer requests at any time and implement your projects efficiently and precisely.

Calculation
Project costs at a glance thanks to APplus
Comprehensive costing is a key factor in the profitability of a project. This is where our ERP solution supports you with a broad portfolio of functions that is optimally tailored to your toolmaking requirements.
Whether pre-, post- or concurrent costing including detailed variance analyses – APplus provides you with an up-to-date overview of planned and actual costs at all times. This allows you to keep control of your budget at all times and react to deviations at an early stage. With APplus, you ensure that your projects remain economical and successful.
Resource planning
Efficient planning and scheduling
Efficient planning and scheduling are crucial for success in toolmaking. APplus supports you right from the quotation phase with project-related effort and resource planning. This allows you to start with the rough planning of deadlines, personnel and costs at the earliest possible stage.
The production processes are scheduled in the graphical planning board, which shows all results in a clear and modern display. Any fine corrections, such as postponements, can be made directly in the planning board. This intuitive visualization and flexibility ensures that your resources are optimally utilized and your projects run smoothly.
Project management
Central planning and control
Our project management enables you to plan and control all project-related processes and data centrally. Orders are already managed and processed like projects in the quotation and planning phase. This ensures a clear structure and overview.
If required, the business calculation can be easily transferred to the corresponding production view for production. Using the EDM or PDM interface, growing parts lists can be transferred to the subsequent process stages without any manual effort. This ensures consistently efficient order processing in your projects. With APplus project management, you stay on track at all times and can complete your projects successfully and economically.
Change management
React flexibly and efficiently
In toolmaking, changes are often unavoidable during the course of a project. With change management from APplus, you remain flexible and efficient. Our ERP solution enables you to manage all changes centrally and integrate them immediately into your ongoing projects.
Regardless of whether it concerns adjustments to the design, changes to the parts lists or new customer requirements – APplus records and documents every change in detail. This ensures that everyone involved is always up to date and misunderstandings are avoided. Seamless integration of changes into the entire production process ensures high quality and adherence to deadlines. With APplus change management, you are ideally equipped to react flexibly to all challenges and complete your projects successfully.
