Propel’s PVM platform, built on Salesforce, is the only solution that integrates product lifecycle management (PLM), quality management systems (QMS), and product information management (PIM) into a single cloud-native platform. This partnership with Razorleaf, a globally recognized systems integrator, enhances Propel’s capabilities by connecting its PVM platform with leading PDM systems (SOLIDWORKS, Autodesk, Creo) and ERP platforms (NetSuite, SAP, Oracle) via Razorleaf’s CLOVER platform, which features over 50 connectors. As Eric Schrader, Chief Product Officer at Propel, stated, “Today’s manufacturers require seamless integration between their design data management tools, PLM systems, and ERP. Our partnership allows customers to eliminate silos between engineering and downstream teams.”
The collaboration creates a digital product thread, ensuring secure and traceable data flow across the product lifecycle. This improves traceability, version control, and change management, enabling faster innovation cycles. Razorleaf’s CEO, Eric Doubell, noted, “We’re excited to collaborate with Propel to deliver PDM and ERP integrations that empower engineers and unify data across PLM, QMS, and PIM.” Key benefits include automated data syncing, greater visibility into engineering data, reduced manual effort, and minimized integration costs. For example, companies like Formlabs have reported a 100% increase in design reuse and a 50% reduction in commissioning time using Propel’s platform.
Propel, recognized on the Inc 5000, Deloitte Technology Fast 500, and Fortune’s Most Innovative Companies lists, serves high-tech, medtech, and consumer goods sectors. The partnership aligns with Gartner’s prediction that by 2027, over 70% of PLM applications will support end-to-end digital threads, addressing the needs of 80% of medium and large manufacturers seeking comprehensive data management. The Summer ’25 Release further enhances Propel’s ERP integration capabilities, reinforcing its commitment to an open, configurable ecosystem.
