Substantially leveragingTeamcenter investmentsTeamcenter
Reporting and Analytics enablesenterprises to transform
Teamcenter-managed datainto actionable knowledge by using simple
tools toextract, analyze and report on product and
processinformation. In turn, this knowledge can be used toaddress
numerous business questions.
How productive is your current proposal process? Howmany
documents were delivered on time or were late?What is the closure
rate of change incorporation?Whatproducts have the most reported
problems? How are yourparts performing?What are the most common
failuremodes? How do project A and project B compare in termsof
their release volumes?What is the current status ofsupplier
performance on project XYZ?
Tightly integrated with Teamcenter andits applications,
Reporting and Analyticsfully leverages the entire object
andsecurity models of the underlyingTeamcenter application as-is –
allowingany site to apply reporting and analytictools to their
installation.
Reporting and Analytics maximizes anenterprise’s ability to work
with virtuallyall kinds of product and processinformation,
including data captured fromother enterprise application systems
andall relational and legacy datasources. Reporting and Analytics
ties multiple data sources into anenterprise information
integration (EII) solution that honors the organization’s
application securityand business conventions.

SummaryTeamcenter® Reporting and Analytics software provides
easy-to-use tools that enterprises can integrate into their PLM
environment togain unprecedented visibility into their business
processes and Teamcenter-managed data.With Reporting and Analytics,

them to quickly generate reports and analyses in a wide variety of
formats fromgraphical dashboard displays to easily customizable
HTML formats that can be delivered by email, generated as PDFs or
exported toExcel spreadsheets.
ECR CycleTime
Reporting and Analytics’ decision-support capabilities allow end
users to:• Quickly and effortlessly perform information queries•
View, analyze and report on the organization’s integrated data from
multiple perspectives• Generate drill-up and drill-down
data-centric and graphical information views• Present results for
dashboard viewing• Export results to Excel spreadsheets, emails or
PDFs for team sharing or further analysis• Prepare ad-hoc, as well
as predefined reports
Users can leverage Reporting and Analytics’ web-browser client
and cache analysis techniques toperform “snapshot” business
analyses and generate ad-hoc reports – as well as to support
trendanalysis/reporting.
Reporting and Analytics leverages underlying caching and data
cube techniques to reduce systemoverhead and thereby lower
ownership cost. These techniques enable users to utilize the same
data fordifferent types of analyses.
An integrated scheduler optimizes operations by enabling users
to run reports immediately, periodicallyor at later times. Users
can request reports by type while basing appropriate variations on
dataselections. In addition, users can perform trend analysis of
data gathered from multiple applications.
Use casesComplex report generation and analysis.Reporting and
Analytics can be used toproduce a variety of complex
reports,including:• Detailed BOM/part list reports• BTP package
status reports
• BOM comparison reports• Part failure analysis reports
• ITAR reports• Process status and performance reports
• Orphan part reports
Reporting and Analytics’ users leverage Teamcenter’s core
application-specific object model andintuitive user interface to
map Teamcenter-managed objects, relationships and attributes into
flexiblebusiness queries.
Customized analytics andTeamcenter’s drill-through capability.
Reporting and Analytics can be used to performa variety of
customized analytics, including:• Organization-specific process
status metrics and KPIs• Multi-level root-cause analysis• Mean time
between failure (MTBF) analysis
With Reporting and Analytics, organizations can define their own
formulas for status interpretation andcolor-code this information
for visual display.This allows end users to quickly recognize
high-level issuesand drill down into areas of specific concern
(such as immediate process levels) or drill further downinto
detailed data that can be used to identify trends and specific
issues that need to be addressed.
