Express Data Manager 4.7

Express Data Manager (EDM) by EPM Technology AS is a standards-based platform for managing complex engineering and lifecycle data. Built around the ISO 10303 (STEP) family of standards and the EXPRESS modeling language, EDM provides a schema-aware repository that stores, validates, queries, and exchanges product information with high fidelity. By supporting key STEP application protocols (such as AP242 and AP239 PLCS) and IFC, it enables dependable interoperability across CAD/PLM, BIM, MRO, and other enterprise systems.

EDM combines a high-performance data store with configuration control, versioning, and auditability. It offers robust import and export for STEP (Part 21 and Part 28 XML) and IFC, automated conformance checking with detailed reporting, and powerful model navigation and query at scale. With APIs and web services for integration, EDM helps organizations build data exchange hubs, ensure standards compliance, and maintain long-term digital continuity for critical product information.

Key capabilities:

• Standards-based (ISO 10303/EXPRESS) data repository
• STEP and IFC import/export with automated validation
• Versioning, configuration management, and full traceability
• Scalable querying and model navigation for very large datasets
• Integration through programming APIs and web services

Organizations use EDM to break down data silos, preserve engineering knowledge over decades, and keep complex digital product data consistent, traceable, and reusable throughout the entire lifecycle.
