CIMdata in the News: “Whitepaper Tips and Tricks: Product data management systems ready for small, medium companies”
The Control Engineering article, “Whitepaper Tips and Tricks: Product data management systems ready for small, medium companies” highlights the complimentary CIMdata white paper, “Getting Started in PDM,” and quotes CIMdata’s Peter Bilello:
“As PDM technologies have matured, their applicability to multiple industrial segments and organizations of all sizes has increased significantly,” explains Peter Bilello, CIMdata vice president. “Our research and experience indicate that many PDM systems have evolved to meet the needs of not just large enterprises, but also small- to medium-sized enterprises of all types. This evolution is an undisputable sign of general market acceptance for this data management-focused technology and the other Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) enabling technologies (such as visualization, enterprise application integration, digital manufacturing, etc.)” Bilello adds,
“There is no doubt that the extensive capabilities provided by many of today’s PDM systems have allowed enterprises in many industrial segments to better control and leverage their intellectual assets—to reduce cost, increase quality, and reduce delivery time.” Bilello also says a number of PDM suppliers are delivering robust preconfigured PDM systems that had been designed for mid-market companies.
