PROSTEP AG:   Two-Day Workshop: Supplier Integration at Adam Opel AG

Suppliers involved with the engineering divisions at Adam Opel AG often have a number of different questions that need answering. This is especially true if the company involved is dealing with its first large project as an Opel supplier.

The questions that arise often involve the following topics:

•  What special "supplier bundles" for these systems are available to suppliers of Adam Opel AG?

•  What standards and guidelines are used at Adam Opel AG (data creation standards, Opel supplier toolkit, etc.) and who/what departments do they apply to?

•  Which integration levels exist at Adam Opel AG (integration via Teamcenter Engineering (GM/iMAN), OFTP connection, etc.) and which level applies to my company?

•  What directives and guidelines exist with regard to the organizational aspects of collaboration within a project?
