Although Concept™ can be implemented as a standalone application, most Configure One customers require seamless integration to their existing business systems (ERP/MRP, CRM, PLM, CAD, PDM, legacy systems, etc.). Because of this common requirement and the variety of ERP/MRP systems being used by manufacturers today, Concept™ has been developed to be ERP/MRP neutral.

Thanks to Concept’s™ open-architecture and Configure One’s Concept Connect™ and Concept Connect Advanced™ modules, integration to other enterprise business systems is easy. The Concept Connect Advanced™ module offers a powerful data transformation engine for any-to-any mapping between different data formats.
