Mr. V V Rajasekhar, Senior Vice-President - PLM and Engineering Services, ITC Infotech explains what the service offers. “In this highly competitive and globalising world, ITC Infotech’s PLM RUNTEAM Support Service works with the customer using proprietary Value Modelling framework to maximise the value realisation from a PLM implementation in line with the maturity of deployment as well as helps the client prepare for future upgrades and migrations with the least possible effort. Since the widespread introduction of CAD, ‘time to design’ has been significantly reduced and the addition of PLM helped accelerate ‘time to value realisation’ through standardisation, reuse and global collaboration. But it has also added complexity. Our PLM RUNTEAM Support Service takes away the burden of keeping these complex systems running efficiently from internal IT teams, allowing design specialists to realize value from developing the next generation of world-beating products.”

Our offering is focussed on supporting and continuously enhancing the features and functionality of the deployed application system.
