SOLIDWORKS Manage is introduced as an advanced layer that extends the capabilities of SOLIDWORKS PDM by combining item‑based data management, flexible BOM control, configurable business processes and integrated project management. The video explains how Manage enhances PDM by allowing users to create and track records, manage non‑CAD items, build BOM variants, perform comparisons and integrate ERP data. It shows how tasks, dashboards and automated workflows give full visibility of engineering changes and project progress, with real‑time updates and reporting accessible across the organisation. The session highlights how Manage centralises documentation, connects teams, improves decision‑making and streamlines processes from design through to project delivery.
