CIMdata in the News: “PLM's Natural Evolution”
Industry-specific solutions are gaining renewed attention according to Jill Jusko in the IndustryWeek article “PLM's Natural Evolution” that taps the expertise of CIMdata’s Vice President, Peter Bilello.
According to Peter:
“It's a definite trend, says Peter A. Bilello, vice president at CIMdata, a PLM consulting firm, that is both natural evolution as well as reflective of the maturing of the PLM industry.
About 10 years ago there was a push toward industry-specific solutions, Bilello notes. Attention then shifted to strengthening the generic applications, incorporating best practices, and now focus is returning to specialized solutions. "It's come back around; it's the next logical step," he says. And it's both large players and niche providers that are starting again to build out for specific industries.
