Hensoldt | Aerospace and Defense | 9500 | $2.9B | Germany | PTC | PTC Creo | Computer-Aided Design (CAD) | 2018 |
In 2018, Hensoldt implemented PTC Creo as its Computer-Aided Design (CAD) application, undertaking an integration program that linked the CAD tool to SAP Engineering Control Center solutions delivered with support from .riess Engineering Europe. The deployment emphasized the PTC Creo integration point within SAP ECTR to centralize CAD data management and align design artifacts with SAP PLM processes.
PTC Creo was configured to support document versioning, change and approval workflows, and CAD data visibility inside SAP ECTR, leveraging the SAP ECTR interface to PTC Creo to orchestrate engineering release and approval processes. The implementation included live demonstrations of change and approval processes for CAD documents, validating that standard SAP ECTR functionality together with the PTC Creo interface could enable end to end PLM workflows.
Integrations focused on the SAP ECTR to PTC Creo interface, with parallel discussion and demonstration of the SAP ECTR interface to PTC Windchill as part of the broader integration landscape presented at partner events. Operational coverage targeted engineering and PLM functions and extended across several international sites within Hensoldt Optronics, where teams migrated from CAD-Desktop to SAP ECTR throughout 2018 and brought PTC Creo into the managed PLM environment.
Governance and process restructuring centered on standardizing change control and approval across system boundaries, with joint project management between Hensoldt and .riess Engineering Europe cited as a critical success factor. Project outcomes were reported as exceeding expectations, driven by the available SAP ECTR standard functionality and the integration for PTC Creo, demonstrating feasibility of end to end PLM process implementation across multiple sites.

Janicki Industries | Aerospace and Defense | 1800 | $500M | United States | SAP | SAP Product Lifecycle Management | Product Lifecycle Management | 2018 |
In 2018, Janicki Industries deployed SAP Product Lifecycle Management alongside SAP Engineering Control Center, with implementation support from .riess Engineering Europe. The implementation targeted engineering operations at the United States aerospace and defense manufacturer and sought to unify engineering workflows under a Product Lifecycle Management platform.
The deployment configured SAP Product Lifecycle Management to provide a consolidated engineering cockpit and to streamline bill of materials integration, leveraging SAP Engineering Control Center for CAD and engineering data management. Functional emphasis was placed on BOM integration and consolidated engineering access to reduce tool switching for engineers.
Integration work focused on synchronizing PLM master data with the company ERP environment to eliminate back and forth between systems, aligning PLM BOM structures with transactional ERP BOM consumption. Engineers and the Business Information Systems organization were primary operational stakeholders during integration and daily operability.
Governance shifted toward unified PLM workflows and BOM governance, moving engineering users to a single cockpit and reducing manual reconciliation between engineering and ERP records. Process changes emphasized centralized access controls and streamlined change propagation from engineering into downstream operational systems.
Janicki reported streamlining of processes and simplicity in BOM integration, and David Gauthier, Director Business Information Systems, noted that giving engineers one cockpit rather than bouncing back and forth between an ERP system and a PLM system was a big difference.

MOSCA | Manufacturing | 1100 | $250M | Germany | PTC | PTC Windchill | Product Lifecycle Management | 2021 |
In 2021 MOSCA implemented PTC Windchill as its Product Lifecycle Management foundation, initiating a model-centric PLM approach for the machine and plant manufacturer. The deployment was executed with implementation partner .riess Engineering Europe and focused on coupling PTC Windchill with SAP S/4HANA through the SAP product data management integration to PTC Windchill to enable consistent product data across engineering and ERP domains.
The implementation emphasized core Product Lifecycle Management capabilities, including bidirectional data synchronization between PTC Windchill and SAP, CAD integration patterns for PTC Creo via the SAP Engineering Control Center interface, automated creation of SAP material masters from CAD data, and bill of materials generation triggered from engineering structures. PTC Windchill was configured to support workflow-driven plant and change processes, providing the procedural backbone for model-centric engineering and master data governance.
Integrations were centered on SAP S/4HANA and the SAP product data management integration to PTC Windchill, with PTC Creo used for CAD data capture and the SAP Engineering Control Center presented as the SAP-side CAD management option. Operational coverage targeted R&D and Design & Engineering functions, and the implemented flows generate the information artifacts required for downstream SAP processes so that engineering and ERP share a holistic product view.
Governance and process restructuring accompanied the technical rollout, with workflow-supported plant and change processes introduced to raise master data quality and to realize a digital twin oriented product view. The customer presentation describes how these changes realized foundations for a model-centric way of working and reworked PLM systematics at MOSCA without prescribing a single CAD data source, enabling company-wide availability of engineering and ERP objects for subsequent processes.
