Tekla EPM 2020: Improved visibility for external processes and progress
You can now designate internal and external stations and routes for tracking processes outside your own facility. This gives visibility and reporting options on the progress of a project not only in the fabrication shop, but also tracking for external processes like erection. The status of the external stations and routes can be updated via Tekla EPM Go and can be visualized in Trimble Connect. This way the erection crew can update the erection progress from the field using EPM Go, and share these statuses both internally and externally in real time.

Tekla EPM Plugin for Tekla Structures
The Tekla EPM Plugin (formerly FabSuite TME) allows for seamless communication between Tekla EPM and Tekla Structures. The Tekla EPM Plugin integrates with Tekla Structures allowing you to:
Export the Tekla Structures model into a compressed EPM XML file. This single file contains the Drawings, Revisions, Bill of Materials, User-Defined Attributes, CNC Files, and Drawing Files.
Import an EPM XML file into Tekla Structures to update the model with the current status information and colorize the model based on those statuses.
