The event, which is celebrating its 20th year, will be held in conjunction with Product Innovation Chicago on October 9 and 10.

The presentation entitled “PLM as a key Transformational tool in Engineering Excellence,” will draw on the speakers’ prior experience as the Vice President of Engineering at Whirlpool Corporation. The presentation will consider which framework is right for achieving excellence in engineering and technology and will present the key factors for success. Additionally, the role of PLM and information technology as a critical transformational element will be discussed.

PLM Road Map at Product Innovation Chicago is the must-attend event for industry executives and PLM practitioners globally—providing independent education and a collaborative networking environment where ideas, trends, experiences, and relationships critical to the industry germinate and take root. It is a strategic conference focused on how companies are successfully employing PLM strategies and enabling solutions to meet challenging product development, manufacturing, and deployment issues.

This year’s event will show how PLM has risen as the strategic business imperative to mediate between the many stakeholders throughout the product lifecycle, applying the appropriate technologies to support often complicated processes. Recently, new technologies, processes, and expectations have emerged or matured that threaten this dominant paradigm with extinction.
