What is the best way
to deal with PLM legacy data?
How do attract the best talent
while capitalizing on the intellectual assets
captured in my legacy PLM system?
How do I maintain access to my legacy data
via an improved ergonomic user interface
without forcing a data migration?
Manage the PLM legacy data
The continuity of legacy systems is a major challenge that can cause serious risks to business and industries worldwide due to several factors.
First off, software licenses expire or become incompatible with new standard (e.g. 32-bit versus 64-bit).
Secondly, the hardware itself becomes obsolete and needs to be replaced. This creates the third issue of moving the data to a supported system while maintaining access to the data.
Lastly, the previous generation of systems requires expert users who are going into retirement leaving them unusable for the next generation.
Three main consequences of legacy systems
• Bugs and compatibility issues are multiplying. Critical data can become unavailable. The repair is costly with uncertain outcomes
• During the migration of data to a more recent IT systems, the continuity of service is jeopardized. The rehabilitation of the service as it used to be is also uncertain.
• The skills gap is getting deeper between employees. The younger workforce with IT skills find no motivation in working in “old environment”
In the absence of a solution to over come the obsolescence of the legacy systems, the major industries
will face huge economic losses.
Many industries, for which the integrity of the data is critical, are in a deadlock. In this context, Percall Group has developed “SOLution of thINGS”
SOLINGS, the first and only solution able to replace the Legacy systems with no migration of data.
This means no risk of alteration of data
Solings has incorporated innovations to ensure
the digital transformation of legacy systems

Providing
continuous access to Data
The scoping phase helps identify and reduce the risks involved in the interruption of your PLM systems via SOLINGS.
The objectives :
It aims to define the strategic goals, scope, and feasibility of implementing or improving PLM systems by analyzing current processes, identifying stakeholder needs, and assessing risks. It provides a clear roadmap to ensure the initiative aligns with business objectives and delivers measurable value.
Companies can also take advantage of the scoping phase to optimize the consolidation and convergence of the associated business processes.
Deploying Solings
while accessing your data
Once the scoping phase is complete, the Integration Phase can start.
Our integration service allows project executing while respecting the specifications and constraints identified during the Scoping Phase.
The SOLINGS solution is designed to support a modular and incremental deployment approach, enabling organizations to implement PLM capabilities at their own pace. This step-by-step methodology reduces risk, facilitates change management, and allows teams to quickly realize value from early phases while progressively expanding the solution’s scope.
Each deployment stage can be tailored to specific business priorities ensuring a smooth transition and strong user adoption throughout the PLM journey.
