PLM Solution

PLM for machinery

Leverage our preconfigured Software as a Service (SaaS) product lifecycle management (PLM) solution. Overcome siloed processes by integrating project management, machine configuration, and bill of materials reuse to produce high-value machines with competitive differentiation.

Why should machine builders leverage PLM?

Evolving product complexity has placed great strain on machine builders, who must engineer flexible and agile machines to meet constantly changing customer requirements all while staying competitive against low-cost, global competitors. In the face of this competition, many machine builders face immense pressure to reduce margins and overdeliver on projects.

To overcome product complexity, meet customer requirements, outpace global competition and increase profitability, machine builders need to adopt a culture of change.
