Datasheet (A4, PDF)
For more than 30 years, CIMdata has been working in the Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) industry. Our consulting services and research expertise are known around the world for their best-practice-based content. CIMdata's Private PLM Certificate Program leverages CIMdata's internationally recognized 5-day publicly offered PLM Certificate Program for Industrial Organizations, PLM Solution Providers, and PLM Service Providers — the PLM industry’s most comprehensive non-biased education and training offering for today’s PLM professionals.
The private program offers organizations an exclusive series of educational seminars that may be customized for specific industry or corporate needs.
To earn the CIMdata PLM Certificate of Leadership, participants must successfully complete all nine sessions in one of two ways:
- By attending the full program over five consecutive days; or
- By attending the pre-requisite Core PLM Certificate sessions offered over three consecutive days and within twelve months completing the remaining sessions over two consecutive days.
CIMdata’s Private PLM Certificate Programs are available to industrial companies who are considering or implementing PLM, PLM solution and service providers, and PLM systems integrators. Public PLM Certificate Programs and advanced courses are also available; for more information contact CIMdata.

PLM Road Map™ 2014
PLM-enabled Continuous Product Development and Delivery for the Automotive & Transportation Industry and Supply Chain
October 2, 2014 | The Inn at St. John's, Plymouth, Michigan
New, just added: Collaboration, Integration, and Sustainability Workshop.
More information HERE
PLM Road Map™ 2014 is the must-attend event for industry executives and PLM practitioners globally—providing independent education and a collaborative networking environment where ideas, trends, experiences, and relationships critical to the industry germinate and take root. The theme for this year’s conference is “PLM-enabled Continuous Product Development and Delivery for the Automotive & Transportation Industry and Supply Chain.”
Product development today is a set of discrete processes and deliveries around specifications and intellectual property (IP) exchange. Design reviews and delivery schedules drive IP development and exchange. Some industries are driving toward a more continuous model, with more synchronous collaboration and, in the case of software, continuous product delivery. Of course, software is not hardware or electro-mechanical. Continuous product development and delivery requires new technologies and work arrangements.
What we will discuss:
- The evolution of collaboration to mean co-development across the value chain, from ideation to retirement. To support enhanced collaboration, practitioners are turning to model-based systems engineering.
- The early use of simulation and analysis in the product definition process.
- The evolution of PLM strategies and enabling solutions.
- Many large companies have large, long-lived PLM initiatives; in fact, because of mergers and acquisitions, many large companies have multiple PLM implementations.
- Reasons why companies are looking to more fluid IT support for product development and delivery, and cloud-based offerings. New licensing models for both cloud and on-premise can help address this need.
- The role of social tools to support ideation/idea management, application lifecycle management, S&A, and systems engineering.
- How products themselves are changing. More industries are looking to deliver products as a services, changing the economics, business models and lifecycle planning for new offerings.
Speakers at PLM Road Map™ 2014 will provide examples from automotive, transportation, and other industries that highlight the people, process, and technology challenges in moving toward a more fluid, integrated continuous product development and delivery model.
Central to the mission and character of PLM Road Map is encouraging the continuous collaboration and synergistic innovation between all members of the PLM ecosystem, including industrial users, subject matter experts, software providers, consulting services firms, industrial and academic institutes, system integrators, and market analysts—all of whom are partners in realizing the vision and value of PLM, especially in the emerging, more sustainable circular economy.

PLM Benefits Appraisal and ROI Workshop
CIMdata offers the PLM Benefits Appraisal and ROI Workshop to accelerate the financial justification of your PLM solutions. The workshop helps organizations that are actively exploring their options for PLM, or are planning to implement or expand a PLM solution as well as those who have implemented PLM and want to understand its impact on their business.
Understanding PLM benefits helps identify your needs, the PLM functionality and solutions best suited to support your requirements, and how PLM should be applied in your organization.
What is the CIMdata PLM Benefits Appraisal and ROI Workshop?
The PLM Benefits Appraisal and ROI Workshop is a two-day interactive work session that is facilitated by CIMdata consultants with the active participation of your company’s PLM project team. The workshop includes handouts of presentation materials, one copy of the current edition of CIMdata’s PLM Benefits Appraisal Guide, and a copy of CIMdata’s multiple spreadsheet ROI and benefits assessment model. This allows you to continue to use the model to refine and test your results or to execute additional appraisals.
The goals of the workshop are to:
- Help your PLM team understand the business benefits of PLM
- Teach your team how to execute a benefits appraisal
- Estimate your organization’s main PLM costs and benefits
- Produce a return on investment (ROI) summary for your management
Who Should Attend
- Those companies who are exploring their PLM options
- Those companies who are planning a PLM implementation
- Those companies who are expanding their PLM footprint
- Those companies who have already implemented a PLM solution and are seeking to understand its impact
