Do any of the following statements sound familiar?
  • There are so many options available, I don't know how to start to sort them out and come up with a solution that meets our requirements.
  • We are thinking about implementing a PLM solution but don't know where to start. What questions should I be asking?

Many organizations weighing PLM solution selection know they want to start, yet the ever-changing technical functional offerings that are available today make it difficult to know what questions should be asked. CIMdata is the leading independent global strategic management consulting and research authority focused exclusively on PLM and the digital transformation it enables and has created a set of detailed guidelines for evaluating available solutions and selecting an appropriate one to support a company’s PLM strategy. When properly followed, these guidelines help an organization reduce the time it takes to select the right solution and provide a documented, objective justification for that selection.

There is no simple answer to the question on how to best perform a PLM solution evaluation and selection if you do not have practical information to help walk you through the process and provide key insight, which can help management give the green light to proceed. This CIMdata webinar will provide an overview of PLM solution evaluation and selection best practices.

What will I learn?
  • You will gain an understanding of the main steps your organization should take to evaluate PLM solutions.
  • You will learn how to use a neutral PLM model to define technical requirements.
  • You will learn how to sift through the available offerings while keeping a focus on requirements allowing you to select the most appropriate PLM solution for your organization.
Who should attend?

  • PLM project team members
  • Functional directors
  • Mid-level business managers
  • Program champions & sponsors
  • Business subject matter experts
  • Project leaders
