Challenge	Tyco Fire Protection Products needed to provide its new production factory in the Czech Republic with easy access to up-to-date design information. The factory was not originally part of Tyco, but belonged to a manufacturing company producing electronic products for various customers including Tyco. After the factory was purchased by Tyco, it needed to transition from its older ENOVIA MatrixOne system to Tyco’s ENOVIA Version 6 application, part of the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform from Dassault Systèmes. The transition had to be done quickly as Tyco management announced that MatrixOne would no longer be accessible after three months. Read More
About Customer	Tyco Fire Protection Products, a business unit of Tyco International, is a leading provider of fire protection, detection, and mechanical building construction solutions for commercial, industrial, institutional, governmental, and residential customers. Headquartered in the US, Tyco Fire Protection Products (Tyco) recently reinforced its global presence with a new factory in Ráječko, Czech Republic. The manufacturing facility increases Tyco’s capability to support its European customers. The Ráječko factory works with a number of R&D departments, including one on site and others in Munich and London. Read More
Solution	The company implemented Dassault Systèmes’ 3DEXPERIENCE Platform, including ENOVIA Version 6, to manage its product data and processes and improve collaboration. Dassault Systèmes partner DYTRON, and Transcat, helped Tyco a lot – they implemented and customized ENOVIA based on Tyco's current requirements and protected their know-how by transferring their data to the new system. The data represented 8500 components and 4500 different products. Within three months, they were up and running on the new platform. The Ráječko factory works with a number of R&D departments, including one on site and others in Munich and London. They manage their bill of materials with third-party software. Consequently, data has to be exported from this software to an Excel spreadsheet and sent to them in a complete data package that also includes all the drawings and product specifications required for production.
