Product lifecycle management is a key factor affecting the competitiveness of companies with development or manufacturing activities. They need to get to grips with increasing product complexity, ensure cost-effectiveness, and increase quality. One of the key issues is the management of product data, because PLM controls all parts of a product's lifecycle and has a decisive impact on planning and process efficiency.

In this context the emphasis is less on tools and solutions and more on a holistic product development strategy. The focus here is on improving the collaboration between everyone involved in the lifecycle of a product, synchronizing all activities throughout the value-added chain, and the consistent transparency of product data. The typical tasks that we can help you with include:

• Selection of a PLM/PDM system with neutral evaluation of the available solutions
• Surveying the key requirements of a new system
• Incorporation of current and target processes in the overall product development process
• Optimization and system-based implementation of approval processes
• Surveying and optimization of change management
• Strategies for visualization and digital mock-ups
• Introduction of digital factory
