Integrations

Seamless Product Architecture

When different areas of a business and tools communicate with a common information model, data flows seamlessly across colleagues, sites, and functions, no matter where you are in the lifecycle process. When changes are needed, the entire chain and system are updated automatically. Data is structured, versioned, and access-controlled, enabling various systems to consume the same master information via automated integrations. This model ingeniously eliminates the problem of multiple versions of the truth spread throughout systems.
 
By employing a transparent information model and secure integration, API makes it possible to generate aggregated reports covering all business aspects. These reports provide valuable insights into the planning, sales, and production of the product portfolio.

By its very nature, PALMA has been purpose-built to break down information silos and enable smooth end-to-end operations. Connect and harness the potential of your entire organization with PALMA.
