PROCAD (Revalize)

PROCAD builds PRO.FILE, a PLM system that combines product data management, CAD data management and document management based on technical structures, which the vendor calls DMStec. The company was founded in 1985 in Karlsruhe, Germany. In 2021 it merged with keytech and ACATEC to form the PROCAD Group, and at the end of that year the group was sold to Revalize, a manufacturing software group backed by TA Associates and Hg.

PRO.FILE targets mid-sized manufacturers in machinery, plant and equipment engineering. The current generation, which grew out of the PRO.FILE next platform launched in 2020, uses a low-code approach: prebuilt application packages cover common processes, and customers adjust them through configuration. Version 10 adds real-time collaboration and workflow automation, and a mobile app gives access to files and approvals outside the office. PROCAD previously marketed PROOM, a cloud service for document exchange with external partners, with the last product announcements dating from 2019 and 2020. The Revalize PROOM address now redirects to the PRO.FILE site, which does not list it, so buyers should treat PROOM as no longer marketed. In April 2026 Revalize added an optional PRO.FILE ECM module for engineering change and announced expanded web-based functions.

The product suits organisations that need engineering data, CAD files and technical documents in one controlled repository. PROCAD has prepared PRO.FILE for integration with SAP S/4HANA, and it connects to common CAD, ERP and CRM systems. Public documentation on sustainability data, materials compliance or Digital Product Passport support is limited, so buyers with regulatory reporting needs should test those scenarios directly. Roadmap decisions sit partly with the US-based parent.

No documented features for DPP, ESPR, PPWR or materials compliance were found in public sources as of October 2026.
