Modern product development demands tight alignment between requirements, implementation, validation, and product data. By seamlessly integrating PTC Codebeamer and Siemens Teamcenter, PROSTEP enables a continuous Digital Thread across ALM and PLM - ensuring end-to-end traceability, consistent information, and efficient collaboration across engineering domains.

The solution automates the bidirectional exchange of requirements, test cases, change data, and documents. This ensures compliance with regulatory standards, improves transparency, and accelerates innovation - while allowing teams to continue working in their preferred systems.

Disconnected ALM and PLM systems create risks in complex, software-driven products. The PROSTEP Codebeamer–Teamcenter integration closes this gap by establishing a controlled, bidirectional synchronization layer between requirements management and product lifecycle management.

Requirements, defects, change requests, and documents are synchronized automatically or on demand. Traceability links are maintained consistently in both systems, enabling reliable impact analysis, audit-ready documentation, and faster decision-making.

As part of the PROSTEP Digital Thread Platform, this solution complements existing PLM and ALM backbones without replacing them.

Seamless Digital Process Chain

Tight integration of Codebeamer and Teamcenter eliminates silos and ensures consistent traceability across domains.

Efficient Development of Smart Products

Connects mechanical, electrical, and software engineering - supporting interdisciplinary collaboration.

Higher Product Quality and Faster Innovation

Automated synchronization eliminates manual effort and ensures consistent data quality in both systems.

Bidirectional Synchronization

Requirements, defects, test cases, changes, and documents are synchronized in real time or via controlled triggers.

Scalable and High-Performance

Built on proven OpenPDM technology, supporting large data volumes and parallel processes.

Fully Extensible Solution

Based on predefined processes and templates, yet adaptable to customer-specific needs without starting from scratch.

This solution enables real-time synchronization and traceability between Codebeamer and Teamcenter throughout the development lifecycle.

Link Codebeamer Requirements to Teamcenter Items

Traceability links are created automatically; linked Teamcenter information becomes visible in Codebeamer.

Link Teamcenter Change Requests to Codebeamer Requirements

Bidirectional trace links ensure that changes are transparent in both systems.

Link Codebeamer Defects to Teamcenter Change Requests

Enables closed-loop change and defect management across ALM and PLM.

Synchronize Documents Across Systems

PDFs, Office documents, images, and text files are accessible and traceable in both environments.
