Successful Migrations Require a Complete Solution
Migrating data with a service partner that doesn’t specialize in migrations results in custom, one-off projects. These projects are under-defined, have schedule and cost overruns, rely on manual processes, and have long, complex cut-over events. Successful migrations require detailed solution design, an experienced team, powerful software, and refined processes.
Levitek’s scoping process delivers realistic solutions guided by recommended best practices. BitPrecise, Levitek’s migration platform, has pre-existing solutions for each phase of the migration (Extract – Transform – Load – Verify). We automate, capture, re-use, and refine every migration process. Our team of CAD, PDM, and PLM migration experts leverage BitPrecise to efficiently deliver complex migrations. Using a solution approach, Levitek has maintained a 100% success rate over 400+ migrations.

Transformative Migrations
Entire PLM communities have evolved, believing their legacy data should be left behind, long cutover windows are normal, and compromise is the only path to completion.
Levitek is disrupting that paradigm with Transformative Migrations. Transformative Migrations enable “any source to any target” data model transformations without compromising data quality or performance. During a Transformative Migration, it is standard practice to cleanse and normalize data, transform complex data models, link disparate datasets, and inject healthy metadata onto legacy objects.
Migrate your data the way you want it to be migrated.
Consolidate PLM, PDM, CAD
Consolidate your engineering IT landscape. Create new links, resolve duplicates, and fill data gaps in the transformation to maximize the value of your new PLM-centric environment.
Better User Adoption
If migrated legacy data is not usable in the target system, users will return to the source system, and the implementation will fail. Transformative migrations provide high-quality data that works correctly in the target system, ensuring user adoption.
Build a Digital Thread
Migrations offer an excellent opportunity to prepare your PLM data for integration with enterprise systems. Normalize and synchronize your data with other systems in transformation, not after it has been loaded.
System Agnostic
No matter what PLM system you adopt, we make sure you can keep your legacy data. Any source. Any CAD.
