The Integrate Intelligently Podcast

How does your business integrate? It's a question that can have a lot of answers - from integrating people to integrating systems. Or more often, it's finding ways for both to work together to achieve greatness. That's what we believe integrating intelligently means. At CADTALK Software, we specialize in helping manufacturing companies optimize their engineering to manufacturing handoff through the power of intelligent CAD to ERP integration. Maybe you're a manufacturing engineer and you are tired of manual data entry, and you want to learn more about what integration looks like. Or maybe you're in an entirely different SaaS field and want to hear more stories of ERP integrations. Join CADTALK's brotherly duo, CEO Scott Brickler and CRO Jeff Brickler, for The Integrate Intelligently Podcast. We explore what it means to integrate intelligently in manufacturing, engineering, and beyond.

    Ep. 23: When to Integrate CAD & PLM with ERP: Getting the Foundations Right in Manufacturing

    Should you integrate your CAD system with your new ERP now, or kick that can down the road? In this episode of The Integrate Intelligently Podcast, manufacturing tech veterans Jeff and Scott Brickler cut through the confusion around integration timing. Drawing from decades of implementation experience, they reveal why rushing to fancy features while neglecting your data foundation is like training for a marathon before learning to walk. You'll learn why "consistent but wrong" beats "occasionally right," how to avoid the implementation scope creep trap, and why your ERP's future AI capabilities depend on the data decisions you make today. Whether you're planning an ERP implementation or looking to level up your existing system, this episode delivers practical wisdom on getting the fundamentals right first. -------------------------------------------- Follow CADTALK: CADTALK's Website: Home | CADTalk Follow CADTALK on YouTube (video episodes found here): CADTALK - YouTube Follow CADTALK on LinkedIn: CADTALK- LinkedIn -------------------------------------------- Chapters: Introduction (00:00-01:14)Introduction to episode topicQuestion of integration timing in ERP projectsThe Integration Timing Debate (01:14-04:13)Two main scenarios for integrationChallenges of implementation scopeWhy timing matters in ERP projectsFoundation vs. Optimization (04:13-08:11)Importance of foundational dataDiscussion of data quality vs. efficiencyImpact on downstream processesUnderstanding Integration Priority (08:11-14:08)Comparison of different integration typesExample of nesting integration vs. CAD integrationDiscussion of "vitamins vs. medicine" analogyData Quality and System Value (14:08-23:17)Importance of clean data from the startImpact on AI and advanced featuresValue of consistency in dataImplementation Strategy (23:17-32:11)How to approach ERP implementationFocusing on core problemsAvoiding scope creepContinuous Improvement Approach (32:11-41:26)Real-world implementation exampleBuilding on fundamentalsLong-term success strategiesKey Takeaways: Foundational data integrations should be prioritized early in ERP implementationsConsistent, quality data is more valuable than immediate labor savingsFocus on fundamentals before adding optimizationsSuccess comes from continuous improvement rather than trying to do everything at onceIntegration timing should align with the data's impact on core business processes
