The Seamless Bridge Between Arena PLM and Expandable ERP.
You’ve perfected your product in Arena. Now, bring it to market faster with the ERP built to sync with your engineering workflow.
Customers Who Trust Expandable
How the Integration Works
- Design & Release: Your team finalizes the product design and documentation within Arena PLM.
- The Bridge: Through our purpose-built connector, the approved ECO/BOM is pushed to Expandable.
- Production Ready: Expandable automatically populates item records, multi-level BOMs, and effectivity dates.
- Execute: Your manufacturing and supply chain teams begin purchasing and building immediately with 100% data accuracy.
Eliminate the “Wall” Between Engineering and Manufacturing.
Manual data entry is the enemy of innovation. When your PLM and ERP don’t talk, you risk BOM errors, production delays, and costly rework.
Expandable’s deep integration with Arena Solutions eliminates the manual hand-off. We provide a “single source of truth” that ensures what you designed in Arena is exactly what you build, cost, and ship in Expandable.
