Frequently Asked QuestionsTeamcenter Rapid StartTeamcenter Rapid Start was formally announced with the Teamcenter 10 release in June 2014. Our keycompetitive differentiator is that we offer one platform for customers to grow from PDM to PLM. Ascustomers’ business needs grow, they can seamlessly add on Teamcenter PLM capabilities across theportfolio.Teamcenter Rapid Start key values: Simple and fast to install, set up and deploy High-value, preconfigured based on best practices Minimal IT expertise required to operate and support Realize benefits quickly for a fast return-on-investmentRelease/version review:Teamcenter Rapid Start is not a new product or application, it is a preconfiguration of standardTeamcenter (unified architecture) Teamcenter Rapid Start 9.1 was available as a restricted release Teamcenter Rapid Start 10.1 leverages the standard set of Teamcenter multi-CAD integrationsand options can include Classification, Schedule Manager and ERP integrations. Teamcenter Rapid Start 10.1.4 leverages the standard set of ECAD integrations, along withextended platform support (full Teamcenter browser and web server support; over-the-web(OTW) installer for Rich Client; and support for all Teamcenter languages) along with the add-onoption of Active Workspace 2.4. Teamcenter Rapid Start 11.2 features a single install kit with Teamcenter and a simple “move toTeamcenter” menu option that can extend a Rapid Start installation to a Teamcenter installationin minutes. A new BMIDE-based, newly architected Intelligent Part Numbering capability that isstandardized in full Teamcenter will automate and standardize part number generation. 11.2also extends platform support (including cloud) to non-UNIX platform.Who is the competition?Most midmarket competitors offer a PDM platform without a PLM growth path. Teamcenter Rapid Startis a preconfigured deployment of standard Teamcenter, so we offer one platform to grow from PDM toPLM. This also differentiates us from our PLM competitors, who generally offer two different platformsfor small-to-medium businesses versus larger enterprises.At the mid-range PDM level, the primary competitors are Autodesk and ARAS, while our traditional PLMcompetitors are PTC and Dassault. These competitive products have limited CAD integration, especiallywhen it comes to managing NX and Solid Edge data.Keep in mind, the key issue with competitors who claim they have “multi-CAD” simply because theyhave CAD connectors it’s what they do with the CAD files vs. what we do with our CAD visualizationthat is the key competitive differentiator. Here are some sample qualifying questions to help establishthe difference between Teamcenter and competing PDM options, including ARAS: What is the list of CAD systems supported? Do you see NX and Solid Edge? Can the CAD designs interact in the PDM system? Is there integrated visualization or digital mockup?Copyright 2016, Siemens PLM Software, Inc.Restricted – For Internal and Reseller use only. Not to be distributed to customers.

Frequently Asked QuestionsTeamcenter Rapid Start Can PDM users save files as BOTH a CAD-neutral file format (i.e., .jt), AND a CAD system file type(i.e., .prt, .asm)? Can designers open EITHER a CAD-neutral file or a native file type to see files designed in otherCAD systems? Can they create assemblies from CAD files created by different systems? Can they manage design BOMs across CAD systems, maintaining associativity from the designfile to the CAD system of origin? Can they exchange CAD-neutral files with suppliers and customers? Can non-CAD users make notations, mockup and analysis of designs?With Teamcenter Rapid Start, customers can deploy standard Teamcenter quickly, and cost-effectively,with the option of adding Classification and Schedule Manager. Customers also have their choice of thestandard set of Teamcenter CAD integrations. This includes integrations for NX, Solid Edge, SolidWorks,CATIA, AutoCAD, Inventor and CREO.For detailed competitive analysis, review the Teamcenter Rapid Start Competitive Positioning deck.Who are the primary targets for Teamcenter Rapid Start?The primary targets for Teamcenter Rapid Start are our NX and Solid Edge customers who do not haveTeamcenter. Historically, they may have perceived Teamcenter as too difficult or costly to implement and that’s why presenting right-size PDM is a new sales strategy for you to re-visit their PDM needs and the right-size PDM message is reinforced by marketing. The same CAD integrations supportTeamcenter Rapid Start and Teamcenter.Beyond our own customer base, according to the ARC PLM Worldwide Outlook, businesses with revenueunder 250M represent the fastest growing segment in PLM Software sales. There are more than 1.5million seats of Solid Works and 2 million seats of Autodesk/Inventor, many of whom require greaterPDM capabilities than their CAD workgroup manager can provide.Teamcenter Rapid Start is robust, yet accessible PDM solution for any industry. Qualifying criteria forTeamcenter Rapid Start prospects include: Standard Teamcenter implementation is cost-prohibitiveNeed design data management, process management and basic change managementUsually more than 5 CAD seats, but can go lower than 5 seatsNon-Solid Edge SP targetsMulti-CADWhen engaging a prospect, lead with the value of PLM/PDM and Teamcenter, in general. Only when youhave qualified the opportunity for PDM, and you determine that they are a good fit for Rapid Start dueto budget constraints or other concerns about traditional Teamcenter deployment, then present theoption of a preconfigured Teamcenter solution with lower cost to deploy.Copyright 2016, Siemens PLM Software, Inc.Restricted – For Internal and Reseller use only.

If Teamcenter Rapid Start is Teamcenter, what are the functionaldifferences between Teamcenter Rapid Start and standard Teamcenter?While Teamcenter Express was a different codestream from standard Teamcenter, Teamcenter RapidStart is simply a preconfigured deployment option for standard Teamcenter.Aside from the preconfigurations in the installation, and the preconfigured workflows, groups and roles,there really is not much difference between Rapid Start and Teamcenter. The main thing is that RapidStart is tightly scoped so there’s not a big consulting period (and related costs). And thepreconfigurations make the install and training simpler.For a detailed list of functional capabilities, including the differences between Teamcenter Rapid Startand standard Teamcenter, refer to this technical specifications fact emens.com/more FICATIONS-fact-sheetIn the fact sheet you can find the list of preconfigured workflows and roles, plus there are these threeexclusive Rapid Start capabilities, which will be included with standard Teamcenter in v11.2: Intelligent Part NumberingXpress Review PackageShop Floor ViewerTo help you articulate the differences between Rapid Start and standard Teamcenter, please refer tothis customer-facing slide mens.com/more parison2.

If the cost of Teamcenter Rapid Start is higher than standard Teamcentersoftware, because of the additional server license, why would a customerwant to pay more for Rapid Start?Every PDM/ PLM implementation needs services help to configure the system as per their businessneeds regardless of the size of the organization -- small, medium or large.At a fundamental level, we can classify this service component into three basic categories,1. Configuration based on the industry type -- auto supplier, industrial machinery, etc.2. Configurations based on the size of the company -- small and mid-size business, OEMs, etc.3. Configuration based on the individual organization’s needBased on our experience installing Teamcenter around the world, we found that for the first twocategories, most of the configuration needs are common across small and mid-size companies. So whenthe needs are common, why put the burden on these customers to pay the standard services consultingcosts? And why should we expect them to enhance and maintain Teamcenter during the release-byrelease upgrade on top of standard Teamcenter? It is a huge effort and time-consuming process.Therefore, to minimize that cost, we gathered all the best practices experiences and designed theTeamcenter Rapid Start configuration which will be essentially deliver the most common configurationrequirements of small- and medium-sized customers.

Frequently Asked QuestionsTeamcenter Rapid Startrequire services consulting at the standard rate, implementing all the configurations available inTeamcenter Rapid Start would cost much more.Teamcenter Rapid Start includes a server license fee, which is more than offset by the savings of apreconfigured PDM solution. There are fewer costs up front. These preconfigured capabilities will bemaintained at every release by SPLM and available to the customer under the normal MES, rather thanthe customer having to keep them updated and validated at every new release. For Rapid Startcustomers, if services are required at all, they will be scoped and priced according to a pre-definedstatement of work. Plus, there are the intangible cost savings of getting up and running faster andgaining a faster return on their PDM investment.4. How does the licensing work when a customer moves from TeamcenterRapid Start to Teamcenter?Once a Rapid Start customer, always a Rapid Start customer. For customers who move to Teamcenterfrom Rapid Start, they still keep all of the Rapid Start pre-configurations. Even after moving to theTeamcenter installer, it does check if the Rapid Start license is available for those functions.5. How does the licensing work with the Solid Edge Integration (SEEC)?From the Pricebook SE375F pre-requisite section, it looks that you just need TC10101 OR TC50100 to runSE375F. However if you further investigate to TC50100 license pre-requisite then it clearly shows itneeds (TC10101 or TC10102). Thus the simple meaning of SE375F pre-requisite section is, you canintegrate ‘Solid Edge Embedded Client’ either with Teamcenter (TC10101 or TC10102) or withTeamcenter Rapid Start (TC50100).6. Can Teamcenter Rapid Start be deployed with IaaS?Yes. Because Teamcenter Rapid Start is Teamcenter, it can be deployed just the same as standardTeamcenter using the Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) approach to minimize the up-frontinfrastructure/hardware costs.7.
