Replay Webinar About our Speaker

Do any of the following statements sound familiar?
  • We cannot find data when it is in different or unknown silos.
  • We often hear, “They should just use PLM and follow our procedural rules.”
  • More remote work is needed but it hasn’t materialized.
  • Our quality misses are often due to unknown or misunderstood data.
  • We underuse our field experiences.

Contextual views combining relevant data from different information silos improves decision making within a company. Finding the data when it is outside your immediate responsibilities can be challenging. Making sure the data is from a stable configuration is also challenging; was it from an early release or a pilot or somewhere in between?

As presented in previous CIMdata webinars—working from home, data governance, and PLM hardships—some of the enablers for remote working are the same as the enablers for effective decision making. PLM platforms can provide a framework for establishing and managing configurations. This PLM product and process innovation framework must-have capabilities to explore heterogeneous external data sources intelligently.

Process orchestration (i.e.., what needs to be decided when), and shared configurations (i.e., a stable basis), are key elements for improving product development. In this webinar, we will consider the state of the digital engineering practice regarding sharing configurations and how process orchestration across an organization can be accomplished. With the continued advancement of computers and applications, the webinar will conclude with some ideas and projections about what to expect next.

What will I learn?
  • You will better understand digital technologies that can speed and improve decisions.
  • You will learn about the role of Process Orchestration—standard work, basis for improvement, and compliance.
  • You will learn more about the evolution of Product Lifecycle Management—emphasis on incremental improvements.
Who should attend?

Executives, directors, and managers responsible for product development, manufacturing, quality, and service, PLM team leaders, PLM team members, product managers, IT leadership & staff, solution providers, or anyone who wants to learn about how to manage PLM when a disruption happens.

During the webinar you’ll also have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
