CHROPYŇSKÁ GROUP

Chropyňská Group leveraged the 3DEXPERIENCE platform to centralize product data, standardize bills of materials (BOMs), and improve collaboration across engineering, manufacturing, and the supply chain.

How Chropyňská Group Unified the Development of Robotic Lines Across Plants, Teams, and Suppliers

With the company's growth and acquisitions of additional plants, Chropyňská Group began to address increasingly complex coordination of data, bill of materials, and collaboration across teams and suppliers.

During the development of complex robotic lines, discrepancies arose between where data is generated, where it is shared, and where it is actually controlled. Without a unified environment and centralized bill of materials, inconsistencies in data, duplicate work, and complications in production and purchasing planning increased.

What the situation looked like before implementation

Chropyňská Group worked with distributed teams and various processes across plants in several countries. There was a lack of a unified source of information, a standardized bill of materials, and effective integration of design, production, and purchasing.

Different terminology for components, decentralized data, and complex coordination of subcontractors complicated collaboration, slowed quoting and production planning, and increased the risk of errors and duplicates.

How cooperation and solution implementation proceeded

By implementing the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, Chropyňská Group gained a unified digital environment for managing product data, collaboration, and production planning.

All teams now work on a single shared data foundation, have access to current information, and can more effectively coordinate design, production, and purchasing across plants and suppliers.

How Chropyňská describes this change

From Chropyňská Group's perspective, it was not just about unifying systems, but about creating an environment where all teams work on a single shared data foundation.

It was crucial to eliminate inconsistencies in data, unify bills of materials, and standardize the way of working across plants and external partners. As a result, all teams today work with current information and changes are fully traceable.

“We operate a complex business composed of many distributed teams and external partners. Thanks to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, we will now be able to function as one connected entity. We will be more efficient, unify our way of working, and significantly improve planning. This will open the way to an even more successful future.”

What impact the solution had in practice

The change was not only reflected at the system level but primarily in the daily work of the teams.

The need to synchronize data between plants, check different bills of materials, or address inconsistencies in component terminology has been eliminated.

All teams today work on a single shared data foundation, which has significantly simplified collaboration, quoting, and change management.

When does a similar approach make sense

Typically, these are situations where it is necessary to synchronize bills of materials, configurations, and technical data across different systems, coordinate changes between design, production, and purchasing, or ensure consistent data for all involved teams and partners.

It is precisely in these cases that it becomes crucial to create a unified environment for data management, collaboration, and change management throughout the entire product and manufacturing process.

Why TECHNODAT was part of the solution

TECHNODAT helped Chropyňská Group not only with the implementation of the 3DEXPERIENCE platform but primarily with setting up the entire digital environment to match the complexity of developing and manufacturing robotic lines.

The project included connecting design teams, unifying work with product data, and establishing processes for effective collaboration across plants and suppliers.

What changed in daily work

Thanks to the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, there are no longer differences between individual plants, teams, and data versions at Chropyňská Group.

Bills of materials, configurations, and technical data are managed in one environment, and all teams work with the current version of the product without the need for manual synchronization or additional checks.

The entire process of developing and delivering robotic lines today functions as one connected digital process, where each step naturally follows from the previous one – from design through quoting to production and delivery planning.

Why this approach is important

Experience shows that the benefit arises not just from connecting systems but from changing the way data is handled. Data has a clear point of origin and is managed in the context of the product, which increases reliability and usability in other parts of development and in subsequent processes.

This shift is increasingly being addressed by manufacturing companies today, as without it, it is impossible to manage the growing complexity of development or change management, and individual processes remain unnecessarily separated and poorly coordinated.

How the solution works from a system perspective

The solution is built on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform from Dassault Systèmes, which connects design data, bills of materials, production planning, and collaboration into one digital environment.

Existing data from CATIA V5 was integrated using Power’By technology, which allowed for the continuity of existing designs while centralizing them within a unified platform.

The platform serves as a central source of information for all teams and subcontractors. Bills of materials, technical data, and product configurations are managed within a single system that ensures versioning, change traceability, and continuity with other processes, including production planning and purchasing.

The solution also includes DELMIA Ortems, which helps to plan production more efficiently, optimize the use of production capacities, and gain an online overview of the production status.

 

If you are facing a similar situation, you are probably dealing with the same problem

This experience is typical for companies managing product data, bills of materials, and collaboration across teams, plants, or suppliers.

If different parts of the organization work with different versions of data, changes are difficult to coordinate, and information is not available in one place, you are likely facing the same problem as Chropyňská Group.

This is a common challenge for growing manufacturing companies. We would be happy to look at your process and show you where the biggest risks arise and how to create a unified environment for more effective collaboration and change management.

What it means for you

These experiences translate into faster project realization, higher data consistency, and reliable engineering outputs in complex industrial environments.

We help you manage the complexity of engineering, modernize outdated systems, and confidently scale your engineering capacities.

 

ARE YOU ADDRESSING COLLABORATION ACROSS PLANTS, TEAMS, AND SUPPLIERS?

One version of data is not a given

If you are currently dealing with different bills of materials, inconsistent processes, or complex coordination between design, production, and suppliers, you probably lack not another system, but a common source of information.

As the company grows, the number of projects and involved partners increases, so does the risk of data inconsistencies, duplicate work, and unnecessary costs. That is why it is important for everyone to work with the same current information.
HOW TO START DIGITALIZATION IN PRACTICE

Every project needs a common foundation

We will show you how to create a unified digital environment for managing product data, bills of materials, and collaboration across the entire organization.

The goal is not just to digitize data but to ensure that design, production, purchasing, and suppliers work more efficiently, with fewer errors and better control over changes.
