Legrand Unifies Engineering, Manufacturing, and Quality with GoSaaS and Oracle Cloud PLM
Business Challenges
Legrand's Starline business sought to modernize its engineering operations by replacing undocumented, manual processes with a scalable Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platform. Without an existing PLM solution, engineering data was dispersed across disconnected systems, making collaboration, product changes, and quality management increasingly difficult as the organization grew. Partnering with GoSaaS, Legrand implemented Oracle Cloud PLM to establish a centralized foundation for product development and enterprise-wide standardization.
- No Existing PLM Environment: Engineering teams relied on manual processes and lacked a centralized system to manage product data, revisions, and change processes.
- Disconnected Product Information: Product data, documentation, and engineering records were scattered, limiting visibility and creating inconsistencies across departments.
- Need for Enterprise Standardization: The organization required standardized product development and quality workflows capable of supporting global operations.
- ERP Integration Requirements: Product information needed to integrate seamlessly with the existing Syteline ERP system to improve downstream business processes.
- Large-Scale Data Migration: The implementation required migrating more than 139,000 items, 119,000 BOM assemblies, 1.9 million BOM components, 185,000 revisions, and nearly 50,000 engineering documents and attachments into Oracle Cloud PLM.
“Working with an implementation partner, specifically with GoSaaS, was foundational to our success. We always had 24/7 support and immediate responses to any concerns. They gave us the tools we needed to manage the system long-term, drove the schedule, kept us on track, and guided us throughout the implementation.”
- Kacie Long, Product Engineering Senior Manager, Legrand (Starline)
Solution and Results
GoSaaS partnered with Legrand to deliver a 35-week greenfield Oracle Cloud PLM implementation, deploying Product Development and Quality while integrating the platform with Syteline ERP. The project established a centralized digital foundation for engineering, manufacturing, and quality teams, replacing undocumented manual processes with standardized cloud-based workflows. The implementation was completed successfully with no post-go-live hypercare issues and met all strategic business objectives.
- Established a Single Source of Truth: Centralized engineering product data into Oracle Cloud PLM, providing one trusted location for product information across the organization.
- Standardized Product Development and Quality Processes: Implemented scalable digital workflows that improved consistency, accountability, and collaboration between engineering, manufacturing, and quality teams.
- Successfully Integrated Oracle PLM with Syteline ERP: Enabled seamless synchronization between engineering and ERP systems, reducing manual effort and improving operational efficiency.
- Migrated Complex Engineering Data: Successfully transitioned more than 139,000 items, 1.9 million BOM components, 50,000+ documents, and nearly 50,000 attachments into Oracle Cloud PLM while preserving data integrity.
- Delivered a Successful Greenfield Implementation: Completed the implementation on schedule with no open post-go-live issues, resulting in a highly satisfied, referenceable customer.
With GoSaaS as its implementation partner, Legrand successfully transformed from an organization with no centralized engineering system into a connected, cloud-based Product Lifecycle Management environment. By implementing Oracle Cloud PLM and integrating it with Syteline ERP, Legrand established a single source of truth for product data, standardized engineering and quality processes, and created a scalable digital foundation that supports continued innovation and operational excellence.
