Siemens Teamcenter Partner · Medical Device PLM Migration

From Agile PLM
to Teamcenter.
Without the risk.

Oracle is sunsetting Agile PLM in 2027. Your migration window is open.

Medical device manufacturers on Agile PLM face end-of-life risk, compliance gaps, and scalability walls. IndX delivers a structured, validated migration path to Siemens Teamcenter, designed for regulated device development from the ground up.

The Agile PLM Problem

Three reasons you can't
wait until 2027

Oracle's end-of-life announcement is the catalyst, but the real problems have been building for years. Agile PLM was never designed for where medical device compliance stands today.

Oracle Support Ends 2027

No new regulatory updates. No security patches. No compliance fixes. Every month after EOL compounds exposure across FDA 21 CFR, EU MDR, and ISO 13485.

Oracle EOL Confirmed

Compliance Gaps Widen Daily

Agile PLM lacks native depth for DHF, DMR, UDI labeling, ISO 14971 risk management, and modern audit trail requirements. Rigid workflows force workarounds, and workarounds create audit findings.

Regulatory Exposure

Scalability and Cost Wall

Large BOMs strain Agile PLM's architecture. Every integration with ERP, CAD, or QMS requires expensive custom development that you rebuild every time the underlying systems change.

High TCO

Why Siemens Teamcenter

Purpose-built for regulated
device manufacturing

Teamcenter isn't a generic PLM repackaged for medtech. It's a platform designed around the traceability depth, compliance frameworks, and change management complexity that medical device manufacturers operate under.

Regulatory Templates

Built-in frameworks for DHF, DMR, UDI, ISO 14971, and 21 CFR Part 11. Audit-ready from day one, not bolted on after implementation.

DHFDMRUDIISO 14971

Full Product Traceability

End-to-end traceability from requirements through design, risk, testing, and post-market surveillance. One unified audit trail, no gaps.

EBOMMBOMRisk Mgmt

Flexible Cloud Deployment

Teamcenter X SaaS delivers continuous compliance updates with zero infrastructure burden. On-premises where data sovereignty requires it.

Teamcenter XSaaSOn-prem

Proven Integrations

Native connectors to SAP, SolidWorks, NX, Creo, Polarion, eQMS, and MES. No custom middleware, no brittle point-to-point integrations.

SAPNX / CreoAPI-first

Closed-loop Quality

CAPA, NC tracking, and quality workflows built directly into the PLM layer. Quality and product data live together, not in disconnected silos.

Advanced Workflow Engine

Configurable ECO, ECN, and design review workflows adapted to your regulatory model. Multi-BOM at enterprise scale with role-based UX.

Quantified Outcomes

Numbers your CFO
will recognize

Measurable performance improvements medical device manufacturers see when they migrate from Agile PLM to Siemens Teamcenter with IndX.

25%

DHF/DMR Prep Time

Design History File and Device Master Record preparation takes a quarter fewer hours, directly compressing regulatory submission cycles.

50%

Fewer FDA Findings

Reduction in FDA findings attributed to traceability gaps. Full traceability from requirements to audit leaves nowhere for gaps to hide.

30%

Faster Go-to-Market

Accelerated product launch cycles through improved change management and eliminating manual documentation bottlenecks.

20%

Lower Total Cost of Ownership

SaaS cloud delivery eliminates infrastructure overhead and the maintenance burden of a fragile custom integration stack.

40%

Operational Efficiency

Across R&D, RA/QA, and Manufacturing, from unified BOM management, automated workflows, and role-based access to live product data.

15%

Better Risk Mitigation

Closed-loop quality management and enhanced traceability reduce product lifecycle risk, quantifiable in audit outcomes.

Migration Roadmap

Four phases.
One validated path.

IndX's migration methodology de-risks every step, with 21 CFR Part 11 validation, ERP and CAD integration, and dedicated hypercare built in from the start.

Phase 0

Discovery and Assessment

4 wks

Evaluate existing Agile PLM modules, customizations, and data volume. Map regulatory requirements and integration landscape.

Kickoff
Phases 1 to 3

Design, Prototype and Migration

18 wks

Map workflows to Teamcenter architecture. Build regulatory templates and BOM structures. Execute legacy data migration with full validation.

Core Build
Phases 4 to 6

Integration, Testing and UAT

20 wks

Integrate ERP, CAD, and QMS. Execute 21 CFR Part 11 validation. Configure UDI and labeling compliance. Full UAT with all stakeholders.

Validation
Phases 7 to 8

Go-Live and Hypercare

6 wks

Role-based training and cutover. Production system launch with dedicated triage support. Post-go-live hypercare to drive adoption.

Production
Who This Is Built For

The right conversation
for the right team

VP / Director of Engineering

Managing complex product programs with multi-variant BOMs, CAD integration, and design change control in a system that wasn't built for your scale. Teamcenter solves this at the architecture level.

RA / QA Leadership

Spending too much time on audit prep, DHF compilation, and chasing traceability manually. Teamcenter puts regulatory compliance in the product record, not the spreadsheet.

IT / Digital Transformation

Maintaining a fragile integration stack between Agile PLM, SAP, and your QMS that won't survive 2027. IndX builds integration architectures that don't require a full-time babysitter.

Why IndX

The migration partner that
actually executes

IndX combines Teamcenter implementation expertise, regulated manufacturing context, and a structured migration-led approach that helps companies move faster and with less risk than a generic rip-and-replace project.

Siemens Certified Partner

Deep product expertise in Teamcenter, Teamcenter X, and the full Siemens PLM stack. Not a generic IT integrator learning on your dime.

Medical Device Compliance Focus

Proven experience with FDA 21 CFR Part 11, EU MDR, ISO 13485, and ISO 14971. We know the regulatory landscape your products live in.

Pre-built Migration Frameworks

Data cleansing scripts, workflow mapping templates, and validation accelerators that compress your timeline and reduce migration risk.

Execution, Not Just Strategy

IndX doesn't hand you a PowerPoint and leave. We design, implement, integrate, validate, and support you through hypercare and beyond.
