You’re already up to your neck in tools that are supposed to help with Big Data management—ECM systems to store and share content, multiple BI tools to capture and present data, and compliance and security suites to make sure sensitive information doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. Why on earth would you invest in a product lifecycle management (PLM) system when you already have all this software in place?
The reason, according to Andreas Lindenthal is that PLM systems are enabling more innovation for companies across all industries—,from apparel to industrial equipment—,that can’t be gained from any other type of content management or collaboration software tool. In this session, Andreas Lindenthal will highlight how PLM systems provide a unique framework for communicating and collaborating through all product development phases, which more than justifies the IT investment. The audience will learn how PLM solutions can:
- Enable greater communication during the initial design phase by allowing designers to find, edit and provide feedback on product sketches
- Help ensure that an innovative design is accurately reflected in the final product by giving extended development teams the necessary collaboration tools
- Play a crucial role in ensuring that the product is mass-produced to the appropriate specifications by facilitating logistics between companies and their suppliers.
