In mid-November, Razorleaf attended a training session for the new Ready-To-Use (aka Ready2Use or R2U) deployment program. The Ready2Use program was developed to accelerate the deployment process from weeks to days.

Key Takeaways

• R2U is designed to accelerate the deployment process of the customer configuration. This includes: users and roles, parts classification, document classification, custom attributes, etc.
• The installation process is very simple to implement – it only takes a few minutes to install.
• Razorleaf attendee feedback, “I really like this product because it provides the ability to import users and roles into 3DEXPERIENCE databases (3DPassport & 3DSpace). Importing is a very simple process, the customer simply enters information in an excel file.”

Summary

Dassault Systèmes hosted a training session at its Auburn Hills, MI offices for partners in the Value Solution channel. Razorleaf attended this session to become familiar with the tools and techniques associated with R2U in order to better understand how we can leverage these tools to accelerate deployments for small to mid-sized deployments.

What the R2U program provides is a hardware sizing guide that approximates the hardware needed for the deployment. Streamlined configuration is also part of the program. By using a template approach configuration is accomplished through a straightforward spreadsheet, allowing Partners to work with customers to define the desired system configuration.

The template allows spreadsheet configuration of areas such as:

• P&O (users, roles, etc.)
• Part Classification
• Document Classification
• Part Numbering
• Document Numbering
• Part Attributes
• Document Attributes
• BOM
• Route

Some of the configuration is limited in scope, for instance, the EBOM synchronization applies to CATIA V5 only. SOLIDWORKS and other CAD integrations will be supported when POWER’BY is fully released.

Razorleaf is looking forward to incorporating R2U with its Quick Start program to provide lower cost deployment options for its partner’s customers. For more information contact us.
