More on the Cloud: The CPG End User Perspective

CIMdata's Vice President of Research, Stan Przybylinski, recently sat down with an executive from a North America-based CPG company to learn more about the impact of Cloud on the CPG industry. Among the topics on the table for discussion were:

  • What are some of the key product development/innovation issues faced by your company?
  • Do you have any programs/initiatives in place to address these issues? E.g., digitalization.
  • What is the role of cloud in your current enterprise software landscape? Do you use other cloud-based solutions (ERP, CRM, SCM)?
  • What challenges do you face in selling cloud-based PLM internally?
  • What challenges/issues do you face? Concerns like security, bandwidth, data lock in, managing hybrid environments; possibly migration?
  • What benefits/positive aspects of cloud-based PLM do you expect?
  • What is your general timeline for deployment?
