You can think of product architecture in much the same way as building architecture. No one can imagine starting a building without a set of architectural plans and blue prints to work from before starting the project, so we shouldn’t be surprised when things go wrong with products that are without a product architecture plan. Product architecture establishes the arrangement of product components. Without this arrangement, you don’t have the information needed to put together a cohesive product. In other words, product architecture establishes the glue for all downstream product lifecycle disciplines to work together.
With Teamcenter Systems Engineering complete architecture and system modeling capabilities, you can capture your product architecture data with the product lifecycle, enabling you to have complete visibility into design decisions. This allows the various domains across your product lifecycle (software, electronics, mechanics, etc.) to stay connected.

Teamcenter includes a system modeling environment for capturing, organizing, and relating system functions and logical elements, capturing the product architecture in the process. Block diagrams become a ‘living’ window to architecture objects and relationships in Teamcenter that are configured, controlled, change managed, etc. Diagrams can be navigated, and used in documentation and reports to understand relationships between various parts of the product. This establishes a cohesive view for developers to understand how everything fits together.
