This presentation is part of CIMdata’s educational webinar series.
ANN ARBOR, Michigan, USA 12 September 2023—CIMdata, Inc., the leading global PLM strategic management consulting and research firm, announces an upcoming free educational webinar, “How Education Supports PLM Deliberations.” The webinar will take place on Thursday, 12 October 2023, at 11:00 a.m. (EST) and will last for one hour.
When a PLM solution suite is selected, the solution must be properly architected and implemented to support an organization’s business processes and methods to maximize its value in a digital transformation. This process involves integrating many current solutions and capabilities and new tools. Data usually comes from and goes to multiple repositories and parts of an organization; not all functions and tools use data in the same way and same form, so accommodating all business processes is not always straightforward.
In this webinar, CIMdata will share its experiences based on helping clients through their PLM journeys and digital transformations using education to improve understanding and execution.
Attendees at this webinar will:
- Understand how to define solutions and data architectures for product development, manufacturing, implementation, support, and other activities—sustaining the full product lifecycle.
- Learn about the best ways to educate cross-functional PLM teams on—PLM concepts, best practices, and the selected PLM solution’s capabilities.
- Understand the sources of PLM knowledge.
- Hear about ways to manage business rules.
- Learn how to incorporate best business practices into a solution architecture.
- Learn about the differences between education and training.
According to John MacKrell, CIMdata’s Chairman and the host for this webinar, “Many organizations CIMdata works with today are moving from PLM solution selection to implementation with the aim of maximizing cross-functional business performance. Preparing team members for this journey is paramount to achieving success and doing so without unnecessary delays.”
John MacKrell has 40+ years of experience applying computer-based solutions to engineering and manufacturing, with over 20 years at CIMdata. He has held senior positions in product management, marketing, research and development, and consulting.
This webinar will be helpful to people from every part of the organization since properly deployed PLM solutions impact cross-functionally on product design, manufacturing, service, and other downstream product processes. People from multiple levels will find the information pertinent and valuable: senior and middle managers, digital transformation and PLM leads, team participants, users (engineers, manufacturing planners, installation and services practitioners, and others), IT—anyone impacted by how an organization adopts digital transformation strategies and solutions to support product programs.
During the webinar, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions about the topics discussed.
