How familiar are the following statements to you and your organization?
  • We want to pursue a digital thread/digital twin strategy and need to understand how others plan to address this need.
  • We want to define our digital thread from “idea through life” as suggested in CIMdata’s PLM definition but do others see the problem differently? Where are they in their digital thread journey?
  • Our IT group is pushing us to adopt cloud solutions. Are they ready for “prime time,” and are others adopting them?

In many leading companies, legacy product lifecycle management (PLM) implementations have been installed on-site with implementation delays, customizations, and challenges to maintain and adapt to changing business requirements. In smaller companies, PLM is primarily ad-hoc, using Microsoft Excel and shared file services in support of product development. For both, the product development processes are found lacking and unable to support the agility requirements of business today. Many companies are looking to address these requirements using software-as-a-service (SaaS) PLM offerings often delivered using the cloud infrastructure.

In late 2020, CIMdata kicked off collaborative research on the adoption of such PLM offerings. Our partners in this research effort include Aras, Dassault Systèmes, PTC, and Siemens Digital Industries Software. This collaborative research program will help answer vital questions about industrial companies’ on-going and planned SaaS-related PLM efforts. It will consider the extent of the business benefits, the challenges overcome, the satisfaction level relative to expectations, and the impact of SaaS on organizational success.

What will I learn?
  • You will understand more about PLM software adoption status at other industrial companies.
  • You will have a better understanding of others’ strategies around digital thread/digital twin.
  • You will get additional data points to help guide your PLM journey.
Who should attend?

PLM practitioners, solution providers, and larger, successful companies, along with anyone who wants to learn more about this topic.

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

Industrial end-users who have not yet participated in this research may do so by completing our survey available at https://www.esurveyspro.com/Survey.aspx?id=f4459fba-1891-4788-9af4-ad79376846f6
