Over the years, AD PAG project teams have published reports and position papers on a range of topics. In this freely downloadable document, the AD PAG project teams have collaborated to create a comprehensive, common glossary that applies across all of their projects’ work products. This glossary of acronyms and terms draws from industry standard publications such as EIA-649, EIA-836, ATA Specification 2000, and the CIMdata PLM Glossary. As a “living” document it will continue to be updated to meet the needs of the AD PAG members and is published for the benefit of the aerospace and defense industry as a whole.

The Guide is designed to help potential PLM users evaluate the applicability and payoffs of PLM in their enterprise, and to help existing users of PLM monitor the impact it is having on their product programs.
